Most Helpful Positive Review A Skincare Staple I use this vitamin c face oil as a nightly serum after cleansing and toning but before moisturizing. I originally received this product as a full sized sample in an Allure beauty box, but was afraid to try it on my overly sensitive skin. So after I did a small test patch near my jaw with no redness, I finally used it and I'm so glad I did! It's gentle and nourishing, and doesn't trigger my rosacae. The first couple of uses did result in a slight tingling/bubbling sensation, but without stinging or burning. This went away quickly after my skin adjusted, and I've noticed that I need less moisturizer now. When my first bottle recently ran out, I realized there's no way I could go back to a routine without it, so I bought my 2nd bottle from Ulta during a promo and earned 5× points!
Most Helpful Critical Review Break out magnet. I was looking for a new vitamin C formula to add to my daily skincare routine and because the Sunday Riley Good Genes worked so well for me, I decided to rock with the same brand. However, this was a NO NO for my skin. I would use it in my morning routine and the very next day have a fresh new breakout. And I'm not at all acne prone! The only time I break out is when I try something that my skin doesn't like and this my skin haaaated! I tried it on about three separate occasions, I guess I wanted it to work for me because it's not exactly cheap. But every single time I'd get the same results. So disappointed!

Jbella from NY
I absolutely love this oil. It has become an essential part of my skincare routine and a little goes a long way! I'm very sensitive to scents and I don't understand all the reviews saying this is strong and gross smelling. It doesn't bother me at all. I'm also currently pregnant and scents bother me even more than usual and still this oil is fine. I know everyone is different but I believe the negative reviews to be a bit exaggerated.
Smells AWFUL 2
Julia from New Jersey
Just tried it now because I got some samples. Not sure how it is in the long run it looks nice now and is pretty lightweight but my gosh does it smell absolutely disgusting. I don't think I'll ever open that bottle again just from the scent alone. It's lingering omg🤢 do all Sunday Riley products stink!! I tried a sample of the tidal cream and it smells awful too!!! :(

Great product and worth the money!!! 5
Jenny from Williamsburg VA
Only need a few drops to moisturize. Goes a long way. Great under base makeup.

Sassygirl546 from Flawda
Lemme tell you, I loved this product so much that I used all of my sisters. This product became an essential part of my skincare routine. Both morning and night. By the third week, my sister noticed that more than half the bottle was gone and I had to buy her a whole new one (this one lol) and my skin was much clearer too. Anyway, 10/10 recommend and it may start world war 3 with your sister lol.
Love! 5
Lola from Columbus, Ohio
I love this mixed with the Sunday Riley vitamin C serum. These two products have changed my skin for the better. I tried other vitamin C serums that made me break out in deep cystic acne but not this one. My hyper pigmentation has improved in just a few weeks. I have combination highly reactive skin. I can see how the smell can be overpowering if used alone although it doesn't bother me. If you like the Sunday Riley vitamin C serum then buy this and mix a few drops in at each application.
Amazing Product! 5
Ke11sBells from Los Angeles
I have very dry skin and I have tried many different serums. My search is over!
I use CEO Glow twice a day, and my skin looks amazing. It works even better if you also use a retinol with it in the evening. Make sure to wait a few minutes between the retinol and the CEO, or after you apply the CEO in the morning before you apply your primer.
Good for Mature Skin 5
Mature Skin User from Seffner, FL
I use this product at night and on days when I am not wearing make-up. I am 49 years old and have combination skin. Since I am getting older, I like the hydration and the youthful glow that this product provides. A little goes a long way with this product. You only need a few drops. It does take a while to absorb into your skin, and it does have an odd scent. However, I am not using it because of the scent. I am more interested in the results that it provides, which are positive. I have never had an adverse reaction to this product.
Very good fae oil 4
Dre from Oceanside CA
This is very nice face oil! It really does give you a nice glow! It lightly moisturizing and sinks in very well. It has an interesting tumeric scent, which I like.
Monster Smell 1
Somer from Texas
Great product. Does it's job wonderfully. However, every time I use it, my 5-year old daughter tells me, "EWWWW! You smell like MONSTERS!!" So yeah.
The Scent 1
aiko from NJ
If you have a sensitive nose, you'll likely get headaches. It's a very lightweight oil, but the scent is so strong and it made me nauseous and gave me a headache. It's not even like it was a pleasant scent. It was a strong oil scent that was kind of bitter unlike sweeter oils and it did not go away with time.
I don't recommend it for those reasons and can't do a long term review because it made me sick within the first few minutes.
nice product 3
munchies10 from South Carolina
Can smell the turmeric heavily so if you're not big on fragrance give it a pass. It plays well with all the rest of my skin care and iv hydrating without leaving a film. Nice product with great ingredients but I feel it's overpriced there are other vit. C serums/oils that are just as effective if not better.
Smells terrible... 3
Blair from Chicago
I really like the product but I just can't get over the smell. It lingers for a long time. I gave it a couple weeks but I just can't do it. Too bad because it was very hydrating.
Excellent skin oil! 4
Jen from Ft. Lauderdale, FL
This is a great face oil. It's light and absorbs well. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. My skin feels soft and looks dewy after using it. It does have a strong scent from the turmeric, so I knocked a star off.
Just do it! 5
CJ from NC

Amazing for dry skin 5
Alexis from Chicago,IL
I received a sample of this in my Birchbox and was immediately impressed after day one. I wasn't fully convinced so I continued to use this to make sure, and now I'm actually purchasing the product. A small amount goes such a long way with this product. Instant glow and overall healthy look to the skin. I would recommend to anyone I know!
Next Day Results 5
DM from Bora Bora
I was a little weary of this product at first mainly because I have very oily and acne prone skin, but I have used turmeric in my skincare for awhile and was interested in incorporating Vitamin C into my skincare routine, and this was phenomenal! I saw my skin get brighter after the first use. I don't use it all the time, but when I do, my skin thanks me. Just very pricey, but I'm used to that with Sunday Riley...
My skin is GLOWING ✨ 5
Emily from Phoenix, AZ
I was super nervous to try this after reading the reviews (probably wouldn't have bought it if I had seen the reviews first) but I'm SO glad I did! Been using for just a few days and my skin looks amazing. I have pretty sensitive skin and haven't had any weird reactions to this at all. I use this at night because it feels kind of heavy and I wouldn't want to put makeup on after this. The smell isn't great but it fades after a few minutes and it's worth the results!
Not my favorite 1
Piper from Orlando
I didn't really find anything great about it. Too oily and caused my skin to turn red.
Amazing and immediate results on sensitive aging rosacea 5
eShanon from Newport, RI
I got this as a gift sample, and had no idea what it was. I have rosacea and am almost 50, so my skin is aging and problematic. I had oily skin growing up so I am very hesitant to use oils and also, am very allergic to all natural lines such as Origins. I ran out out of my usual moisturizer one morning and decide to give this a go under my tinted moisturizer from Nars. Completely amazed by this product. My skin instantly felt smooth and I looked well rested. My tinted moisturizer and make up application looked beautiful - even my lips looked better! Additionally, it smells very nice. I'm going to try other Sunday Riley products too. Can't wait.
