Gritty
This is a little gritty when you rub it in. Also causes some tingle and a little burn. Will not purchase again.

Just ok
I wanted to like this vitamin c serum so badly but it did nothing for me. Unfortunately my skin did not agree with this-broke out in small like pimples all along my chin and jaw. However, I did love the texture of this serum-reminded me a lot of a makeup primer-not greasy at all! Laid great under makeup!

Good but peels off
It works better alone but starts rolling up on face when you put make up on afterwards. Better to use without. I apply TNS before this product.

Just okay
It's is expensive and I feel there are better vitamin C creams and serums on the market. Also a lot of my moisturizers have vitamin e in them, so that's kind of a waste for me.

SkinMedica Vitamin C + E Complex
This product is nice but if you use too much it leaves a goopy residue that you have to wipe off, which is annoying.

Leaves Skin Soft, Not as Good as Other Vitamin C Products
I love the way this makes my skin feel. Very soft and delicate. However, my skin glows more with other serum-based Vitamin C products. I would likely purchase this product again, but use it as a supplement to my other products.

It’s ok
This just worked ok for me. I have aging skin with some skin damage and discoloration. I decided it just was not enough for me

It's Okay
I like a vitamin C product from a different brand a lot more. I don't see or feel the same results using this one.

TEXTURE IS WIERD. EFFECT TO BE SEEN
I've only been using this product for about 2 weeks so difficult to assess any effect. I don't like the texture, which is like silicone cream.

A Bit Too Oily
It’s good, but a bit too oily. Use just a little if you have oily or acne-prone skin.

Too strong
This serum is too strong for my sensitive skin and dried it out.

Fine but serums are better
I thought this formula was fine, but I prefer the look and feel of vitamin c serums, which impart a nice glow. This just feels like a light cream.

Quality Product
SkinMedica has always had quality products and ingredients and I appreciate the lack of heavy fragrance, as I can't imagine women wanting their face to smell like a gardenia or a peach. The reason for 3 stars is that the price keeps going up at a rate that is totally impractical when the ingredients are exactly the same. I realize many other companies are doing this as well, but it's not a reason to be unreasonable in pricing. I am quite sure most of us wait for sales (which are actually prices that we paid in the past for the same item). At some point people will realize that a 1 oz skin care product does not need to cost $100 or higher. This should not be a competition. With that said, I hope SkinMedica takes note as I am sure they would see a result in increased ordering, while still making a profit.

Skinmedica Vitamin C & E
The consistency of the product was nice and felt smooth when applied. However, when I applied my moisturizer on top of the vitamin C the product balled up and fell off in pieces.

Vitamin C & E Complex
Maybe I expected the “WOW” factor with this product, since it is from SkinMedica. The truth is, this cream did nothing for my skin. Nothing bad, but nothing great. It has a very nice consistency, goes on smooth and feels good. But, it's no different than a good moisturizer!

Decent, but not my favorite C
I wanted to love this because of how great so many SkinMedica products are, but I still prefer a C serum opposed to this product. It has more of a silicone/primer feel to it and even with that, I find my makeup still pills when layered on top.

Weird texture
I don’t like the texture of this product, some say silky. I think it feels slimy.

Just ok
This product was just ok for me. I think the SkinMedica serum works way better for my skin. My skin is oily. I can say it did leave my skin feeling smooth. It seemed to be good for moisturizing.

Pills with everything
I have tried this with other SkinMedica products and cannot avoid pilling. Even with adequate absorption time between layers, it pills unless I pat it on as a last product (over moisturizer). I'm not sure if it is penetrating at all. Does not irritate my face.

I think it's a little rough on the skin. It's not silky or smooth.
