Works well!
I will receive a free full-sized SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF Serum for posting this review. I have been using this serum for several months now. I am 35 years old and have acne prone skin. This serum is great. It has definitely helped even up my skin tone, and reduce the acne. Be careful not to overuse it. It says to use 1-3 times day however, I found that if I use it 2x a day my skin kicks into overdrive and starts overproducing oil making my acne worse. For me using once day does the trick, and follow with the SkinCeuticals HA Intensifier which I LOVE.

It Works!
I will receive a free full-sized SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF Serum for posting this review. I was doubtful this product would actually work as my dark spots were significant. Some are completely gone and the darkest ones are greatly diminished. I’ve been using Silymarin daily for a year now. I only wish I had known about this product earlier!

Great for acne & pores
Loved that it was a thinner consistency than the other Skinceuticals vitamin C serums. Worked well with keeping acne at bay and minimizing pores. Can get a little drying if used too often. A bit pricey as with all Skinceuticals products. I will receive a free full-sized SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF Serum for posting this review.

Great for acne prone skin.
I will receive a free full-sized SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF Serum for posting this review. An excellent serum for acne prone skin. Four stars and not five for two reasons: 1) It is pricey. 2) There is nothing like CE Ferulic. My skin glows with CE Ferulic and looks more youthful. However, I am also prone to breakouts and CE Ferulic doesn’t seem to prevent acne. Silymarin does.

Great potential
I chose this rather than CE Ferulic because my skin is on the oily side and prone to acne. I did feel it helped to brighten my complexion and possibly reduce some of the oil. Unfortunately I had to temporarily stop using it because of issues with my skin barrier, but now that it’s repaired, I’m excited to reintroduce this product and reap the benefits of vitamin C as well keep my oily, acne-prone skin under control.

Not for me
I had been using CE Ferulic for a long time and wanted to give this a try. I think it was a little drying for my cheeks so I now use it on my T zone area only. The consistency is more of a liquid vs serum. Nothing wrong with the product just not right for me.

I think it helped
I bought this because LovelySkin sent me a sample- (yes LovelySkin your samples help- thanks). I suffer from adult acne even at my age- and didn't have it as a teen- I'm not really sure if this helped- I think so. I had no problems with sensitivity or dryness from it. Now that I have used the entire jar I am trying a different product to be able to judge the results of both of them.

Nice
I like this - it’s nice and light and does not break me out. I think it works well for breakout prone skin, as promised.

Best Vitamin C
This is my favorite vitamin C serum for my acne prone skin. I do have some redness with using this product but It hasn't caused any breakouts!

Nice Addition to the SkinCeuticals line of serums
For years I have been religiously using SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF while awaiting an option that would address my extreme oiliness thus I was beyond thrilled to see Silymarin CF launch. I am on my second bottle and will continue because my skin looks really good but I'll be honest - the oiliness remains.

Great Vitamin C
I tried the original SkinCeuticals Vitamin C serum and it made me break out like crazy. This is very light weight. I prefer using a different brand for vitamin C but this one is my second favorite

Definitely helps some with oil control, but was hoping for a better result.

Silymarin CF
I started using this because of all of my recent breakouts. I think I might prefer the Phloretin CF or the CE Ferulic. I felt like I saw more benefit from those others. But I plan to use all of this before I make my final decision.

Finally a Vitamin C I can use
No breakouts with this vitamin czar product. I haven’t been able to incorporate one bc I always broke out. I noticed a subtle glow after using for 2 months. It’s keeper!

SkinCeuticals Silymarin CF Vitamin C Serum
I have been using this product every day. I do find it less oily then the other Vitamin C products I've used. I do notice less acne/bumps around my jawline.

Great for clearing whiteheads and acne!
I received a sample as a complimentary gift to test and loved it! I often get white heads and deep acne and this seemed to work well. I will definitely look to purchase more to validate its long lasting effects.

Orange Face
I apply five drops of Silymarin CF Vitamin C in the morning after showering, and 12-24 hours later, I have a tomatoey-orange hue to my fair skin. It's noticeable, like a bad fake tan. However, it can comes off most of the way with a good face wash, or foundation covers it up too. This product does seem to reduce my oily areas a bit. I have not used it long enough to judge its other claims, but I wanted to make sure others know they're not alone if this dyes your skin. It may be interacting with some of the other products I apply about an hour or two after this has soaked in. I'm surprised no one has reported a similar situation. I wish this would not change color on my face, because it's not very practical if I look like I've had an unfortunate incident with a bottle of fake bake from 1990.

Great multitasker
This is a great combo for my aging, blemish prone skin. I usually use the Acne and Blemish serum but this has been a good substitute. Been enjoying so far. I received this complementary to review.
