Good product
This is a good product. It does what a vitamin C serum is supposed to. Feel good on skin and brighten skin nicely. I made a mistake of leaving it out at room temperature and it got oxidized in 2 months.

How can we tell if it's working?
I bought this product based on a podcast from a doctor on Peter Attia"s "the drive". This expert in the field recommended a vitamin C product be used every morning and mentioned the name of this company. I've been using it a couple a weeks, it's very easy to use but I think what the product is supposed to offer "long term protection from sun damage" will be hard to assess. I plan on continuing use and hope it will keep my facial skin in better shape than it otherwise would have been.

Amazing serum!
I received this complimentary product in exchange for my honest opinion. The first time I used it, it seemed to instantly smooth my complexion and even the texture. After three days, my skin looked brighter overall and was extremely soft. My husband even noticed the difference. After just over a week, my face was no longer oily and my dry patches (all but one area) disappeared. I have used this consistently (with the exception of a couple 2-3 day hiatus). The only time I ever felt a tingle was when I used it after the Microdermabrasion Mask. My reasons for four stars: 1. It is fairly tacky/sticky. I do not like this under makeup. It says to use in the morning, but I use it at night because of this. Takes quite awhile for it to soak into my skin, but if I use less than five drops, it doesn't seem to spread out evenly over my entire face. 2. When I did have my brief hiatuses from using it, I broke out around my chin. I am not prone to breakouts normally, nor did I "purge" when I began using. Not sure why this happened, but nothing else changed in my regimen except this. 3. I really haven't noticed much change in my fine lines or wrinkles. After having using it for over a month already, I hoped I would have seen at least a small difference, especially since I noticed the other changes so quickly. Other things to note: -The consistency is much thinner than any other serum I have tried, almost watery. It runs right through my fingers if I'm not careful. Something to be aware of on initial use, as it comes out of the dropper rather quickly, without even squeezing. -Value for the price. While I absolutely love this serum, I am unsure as of yet if I will purchase when this bottle is done. After using for over a month, I am still only at the top of the label full. So the price is worth it. My hesitation is that I am still looking for one product that will do a bit more. If you already have a regimen, this would be an excellent addition.

Definitely a new staple to my skin routine
I was lucky enough to receive a free bottle from influenster in exchange for my honest review. I have been using this product for over a month and I am pleasantly surprised with the outcome so far. It leaves my skin baby soft and it has helped with my dark spots and just all around has improved the look and feel of my skin. The only thing I am not very found of is the scent. It has a very strong alcohol scent but besides that it's a great product and is a great addition to my current skin routine.

Very effective
I received this product as complementary through Influenster. I used it on my face and décolletage area for two weeks consistently and found that it smoothed and brightened and made my 53 year old skin brighter! To be fair I have found products that seem equal to this for a lower price point. That’s why I took a point off. It’s a great product but it’s not so unique that I would spend the money on this and let me be clear there are some products that I definitely wouldn’t spend the money on

Age spots faded!!
This serum is awesome!! My age spots are less noticeable, and my skin is a lot less dry. Wish it wasn’t so pricy but it really does work! I received this complementary to review.

Glowy
I received these products for free from Influenster and Obagi in exchange for my honest review. I’ve been using this 3 weeks. The mask scratches and burns pretty bad at first, but after a few used becomes comfortable. After, my face feels very smooth like I’ve had a peel done :) after using both products, I’ve noticed some glow on my skin, and slight reduction of wrinkles. I believe you’d need more than a few weeks of use to see greater improvement of wrinkles. I would buy these again :)

Brightens skin
I've only been using this product for a few weeks but have seen a difference in my skin. It's brighter and not as oily as before. Would use up the bottle and see if it makes a bigger difference.

It's Nice But...
I did like the way this product made my skin look and feel, but I couldn't stand the way my hands smelled after using it. They smelled of self tanner and, like self tanner, the smell did not disappear with hand washing. The smell and the cost are deal breakers for me. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

Easy to use
I like this serum. I got this as for free a trial through Influenster and they only give us a short time to write our review so I really cannot say that it works or not as it takes months to really tell such a thing (hence four stars instead of five). Still, I do like that it is easy to apply and hasn't (yet) caused any issues with my skin so I am giving this the thumbs-up. I also like that there is little to no sent in the product as I wouldn't want it to conflict with whatever fragrance I would want to wear.

Great results!
I love my results. I am achieving my goal of fading the melasma spot over my lip. It’s been so frustrating and I’ve been dealing with it for years. From the time of my review, I have been using this product for 16 days. I received this product and a Vitamin C serum for free from Influenster in exchange for my review. I use the microdermabrasion scrub every 2-3 days and the vitamin C twice daily. I do not use any other products except a face wash and moisturizer. First: if you suffer from Melasma, you need to wear mineral sunscreen. I’ve used other products to get rid of this condition successfully and it kept returning because I failed to wear physical sunscreen. I discovered this fact during this review period and began using it about 8 days ago. It has made a huge difference, as I’m in Arizona and the sun is just blazing here. I saw greater improvement once I added the mineral sunscreen. I’m not sure which one is making a bigger difference in my skin but my melasma is fading above the lip and there is an overall brightness to my complexion that wasn’t there before. When you apply this over the microdermabrasion scrub it does tingle but it tells me that it’s working. Be careful mixing with other actives. This stuff is strong. Once I achieve my desired results I will probably stop using the serum twice a day and only use once in the morning. I would like to add back my retinol and lactic acid.

A little oily
Because I have oily skin, I tend to not like oily products. This vitamins serum felt quite oily while putting it on. I also don’t like the dropper, my other ones I use are pump style which is more controllable. The dropper let’s put a ton so have your hand open and ready. Not sure if I see results yet but hoping I do! I received this product complementary for review purposes.

So far so good!
I just started using this product so I can’t leave a full review I will try to make it back for an update and increase to 5 stars once I see results as that can take a few months. I am a RN and after weeks of research and speaking with my dermatologist I went with this line of vitamin C. So far I really love the product. I have sensitive dry skin and this did not irritate my skin at all. I do keep the serum in the fridge as that will help to ensure the product remains stable and lasts longer. With that being said I love keeping it in the fridge as well for an amazing pick me up in the morning! The product goes on smooth and blends in well. It does have a slight fragrance but it’s a real vitamin c serum not loaded with other ingredients so I expected this and it goes away after a few minutes. Also to note I do feel a slight tingle but I like that! After I apply this I put my moisturizer on followed by my sunscreen and it layers well. I can’t wait to see how my skin will look over time! Service was great from this company and the product arrived so fast! I would definitely give it a try.

Smooth and Refreshing!
I love the feel of this serum. Nice light and refreshing. Nice citrus scent and feels luxurious on the skin. My only complaint on this product is I don't like the dropper. Comes out to fast. I received this product complementary for review purposes.

Smells nice, a little sticky
I received this complementary for reviewing purposes. I love vitamin C serum. It does great things for my skin, and this product is no different. It helps brighten and even out my face, which I need with combination, acne prone skin. The smell is fresh and citrusy. The only issue I have is the consistency. Maybe not the consistency, but the final feel? It’s a thin, liquid serum, which is fine, but it’s kind of sticky. Not oily, but kind of like I literally put orange juice on my face. It gives me a slick tacky final feel. Not horrible, but I’ve used other vitamin c serums that don’t have that feel, so I prefer them.

Good vitamin c serum
First few times my face was slightly sensitive but no more stinging after a couple of weeks. It’s not oily and sinks in after a few minutes. You do need a moisturizer over it. Hope to see results in the next few months.

Vitamin C Serum
I was looking for a vitamin C serum with at least 15 to 20 percent vitamin C serum in it. Very hard to find. Finally found it in Obagi. I like the serum goes in. My skin is so dehydrated my skin drinks it in. I found though it is a little heavy for me and a expensive for my pocketbook. Can only by it if it is on sale. Otherwise not a bad product.

Nice texture
I like that the serum has an oil consistency to it unlike some I have tried that are more watery. My skin is glowing a little more I think but I haven’t noticed a significant change. Will keep using it and see, it’s only been a couple weeks so far.
