Must have
I never go a day without using this. It definitely helps diminish dark spots and reduces pore size.

Obagi Professional C serum
I've been using Vitamin C serum since 2005, first with a brand advertised in my doctor's office then switching over to Obagi. I usually use the 20% serum during the summer months and 15% during winter. At 68, I don't look 40, but I didn't expect to, nothing can stop the effects of aging. The serum has kept the blotchiness away, fine lines are visible up close, so unless someone has a magnifying glass out, I look youthful! I never took hormones, even after a complete hysterectomy at age 34, so I think the serum has had a positive effect on my skin health. I use it in the morning after washing my face, apply a light moisturizer with sunscreen, and I'm good to go.

Good addition to your Obagi regimen
it's the first step to prep your skin, and the serum sinks in quickly with no stickiness. Recommend.

Obagi Professional Serum
I’ve only used it for about a month and haven’t seen any significant changes in my complexion. Probably need to use it longer to see if there’s any noticeable difference.

Sticky
I bought this to try because it was higher % in vitamin C. It was real sticky and did not absorb very well. I will go back to IS Clinical product for my vitamin C.

Very good
This vitamin C brand is my favorite so far. It doesn't feel as sticky as the more expensive brands. I will continue using it every day to make my final determination on whether I will buy it again, but so far so good after about a month.

Great Vitamin C
I really like this one, I tried several ones but all of them caused irritation, this one is really good.

4.5 stars
I noticed an immediate difference in my skin clarity after trying Obagi Professional-C Serum 20%. The smell is pleasant, and it absorbs easily. I can be sensitive to breakouts with Vitamin C, but this hasn’t caused any skin sensitivity. If I could change one thing about this product, it would be the viscosity. It’s really thin and can be diff to prevent slipping through my fingers. At this price point, I can’t afford to waste it.

Vitamin C
Lovely for the face, but not every day. I learned my lesson fast. It burned may skin when I used too much, but it was nice after using a few times a week.

Expensive… catch it on sale!
Worth it when on sale. A little cheaper option than Skinceuticals. Definitely see a difference when I use this along with Obagi NuDerm line.

Great, high percentage vitamin c
I've bought this multiple times. It meets all the C serum requirements - minimum 20%, contains the "right" kind of vitamin c (ascorbic acid) and it sinks into the skin almost perfectly. It can bit a bit sticky but that goes away as soon as I put my sunscreen on top..

Obagi 20% vit c serum
It is light and goes on smooth but it doesn’t give me a glow like my previous vit c with fe acid The price is very good. Just wish it had fe in the product (even if the price was a little higher) Would buy again if my first option with the fe is not available

Visible Results
I've used Obagi C Serum for years. I switched from the 15% to this 20% and I love it. It's absorbed quickly, and it leaves skin smooth. Apply this first, then apply Obagi Hydrate. You'll see results fast.

Glides on with nice scent
The scent for this vitamin C is nice, but I still have to take off a star for it because I don't like scented things- which is my own fault really. The solution spreads on easily though with a good dropper that lets you control the a mount more easily. Like most vit-C serums, stings a bit if you have a little abrasion like I do from masks all the time

Great serum with room for improvement
After receiving this product free through Influenster in exchange for my honest opinion, I decided not to post a review until I gave it a real trial. For skincare like serums, that means at least 30 days. I’ve been using this Obagi Professional-C Serum 20% for 45 days. Here are my findings: At first glance I was disappointed. A serum this expensive (retail $133) should come in an airless pump to preserve the vitamin C’s potency. A dark glass bottle is rather pedestrian packaging for a premium serum often sold in dermatologists’ offices. I had better luck with application. The serum has enough viscosity to keep it from running off my hands before I could get it on my face. I have reactive skin so I did get some redness upon application, but no burning sensation, and the redness dissipated quickly. There is a fragrance but I didn’t find it overwhelming or unpleasant. After including the serum in my morning skincare routine for 45 days I can report a positive chance in my skin’s texture and luminosity. Fine lines on my forehead are less visible and pores around my nose appear smaller. Unfortunately, I did not see any fading of my hyperpigmentation. This was my biggest disappointment in the serum. Bottom line: I’ve had similar results from less expensive serums, but I can definitely attest to this serum’s effectiveness.

Professional C Serum 20%
Hi! Wow! Great product & high quality. I did receive this product free (complimentary) in exchange for my honest real review and opinion. I was very skeptical but I am very amazed. The serum has a light fragrance which is easy to enjoy. The texture is super moisturizing and not too greasy when applying on face. The product does what it claims by brightening my discoloration and my dark pigmented skin and does not dry it out. I have noticed with repeat use my skin feels hydrated and glowy and less pigmented and less red. It does have a light tingle sensation but it disappeared after my skin got adjusted to few days of treatments. I did have the combo & im I love. I highly recommend and I cannot wait to see amazing long life results. If you are skeptical please try you will enjoy. Im.goving 4 stars only due to price & I wish the dispenser would be made smaller so less product comes out.

Great vitamin c serum!
I received this product complimentary for testing, and will list my pros and cons Pros: - This is a great Vitamin C serum that leaves your skin hydrated and nice. It gives you the lit from within glow within 1-2 uses - This is lightweight and absorbs very quickly, making it easy to incorporate into your routine - I really liked how glowy my skin looked after 1 week Cons - If you have sensitive skin, note that this is very strong (not really a con, but you may have a reaction) - I don’t like fragrance in products, and didn’t see why it was needed here - While this is a really nice Vitamin C serum, I don’t know if it's $133 nice. If Vitamin C serums work well for you, I feel like you could find a nice serum for much less
