Love it! But be cautious with sensitive skin
First, I am a loyal user of Obagi C 20%. I’ve tried multiple brands and always return to obagi C serum. It absorbs quickly and gives my skin a healthy glow! I bought the 10% for my daughter (age 23) to get her started on a good routine, but it was too strong for her sensitive skin and she had to scale back usage. This is prob her age and her skin type. Otherwise I am a fan!

10%
I have used Obagi on and off for years. I would say I wish I would have bought the 20%. Maybe next time.

Just Getting Started!
I have paired this with my Nu Derm system and so far, I am not disappointed! It is still early in but I love the glow from this serum and just how little it takes cover my face and neck. It does have a smell that reminds me of coconut which I know many people love, I am not a huge fan. I am honestly excited to see how my skin looks after making it through this bottle!

Wanted to love it
I loved it other than my face started breaking out. Probably a great product just didn't work for me.

So far so good
Have only been using it a few weeks to give it a thorough review but so far I am liking it. No breakouts since starting which is always a huge concern for me. It soaks into the skin well and works well under makeup. I plan on working my way up to the higher percentages.

High quality brand, but too soon to notice results with my acne-prone skin!
I've been seeing a lot of good things about vitamin C. I've never tried it and decided to incorporate it into my routine. Obagi is a trusted brand, and I have sensitive skin, which is why I decided on the 10%. I have only been using it for 1 month (every other day in the am), so I am not sure if I see the results yet. I also still have acne, which makes it difficult to decipher what is working. While I have sensitive skin, I don't notice any burning or redness upon application. I also use a blue/red light occasionally and Differin every other night. So, the combination of all 3 can cause some dryness. However, I'm excited to see how my skin is with continued use! A little goes a long way -- so I think this bottle might last me 6-12 months.

obagi professional c serum
I like it ok but I feel that it doesn't absorb into my skin very quickly leaving my skin looking oily. Great price point though.

Professional- C Serum
Great vitamin C serum to start out with. Has done good on my sensitive skin. Will be moving to 15% when this bottle is finished.

Great product
It goes on smoothly and helps skin dramatically. As good or better than higher priced alternatives. Definitely recommend.

works pretty well
I had never used vitamin C serum. This serum has made my face feel softer and brighter. I would recommend Obagi. The price was reasonable as well.

Somewhat strong, even at 10%
I've been using this formula now for a couple of weeks (10%), but I can't seem to tolerate it more than applying it every other day. Even with just using it on alternate days, it makes my face red. Just as an FYI, I am also using retinol every p.m. Time will tell if my skin adjusts, and I can use this long term.

This product works!
I love the entire Obagi line. I have fair skin with freckles and have been using the Nu Derm skin regimen for about a year and can markedly tell a difference in my complexion. A friend recommended that I add the Vitamin C to my regimen. I have noticed a glow in my skin tone and love the improvement. I started with the 10% because I wasn't sure how my skin would react. The first few times I used the serum, I noticed a slight tingling but nothing that was uncomfortable. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because I have noticed that my skin has been a little drier and flakier. That could be weather related (it's now Fall), or it could be that it's speeding up the process of exfoliation, and I'm noticing it more. When I'm finished with this bottle, I'm going to amp it up and try the 20%. It's received rave reviews.

So far so good!
I am so happy to find a vitamin c serum that does NOT cause me to breakout! I have to be careful about putting it too close to my eyes because my eyes will sting all day if it gets in them. After a few weeks I gave notice a little bit of a difference in the overall quality of my skin, but it might be too early to tell the long term benefits-- that's why I gave it four stars and not five stars. But I like it. It absorbs well without being sticky and then I put my obagi SPF 50 on top. I let both settle for a one or two before applying my foundation when I wear it.

Good Stuff
Makes your skin glow. Not sure about what else it's doing though. No burning or irritation at all either.

Helps scarring & wrinkles, very moisturizing
I think this might work better for drier skin or in the winter. It's definitely potent, but it feels a little oily and smells a little metallic going on. My skin feels kind of sweaty after I put it on and it takes a few minutes to set in. But I have noticed a huge improvement on the texture of my deep wrinkles between my eyes, crows feet, and next to my mouth. My sunspots are better, too. I don't know if I'm just using way too much? It's good stuff, and I do have oily skin. Helps with the acne a lot.
