Transformative Skincare Experience!

I recently started using the LiftActiv 16% Vitamin C Serum, and I can't express enough how impressed I am with the results! From the moment I applied it, I knew I had found a game-changer for my skincare routine. Texture and Application: The serum has a lightweight, silky texture that glides effort...

It's Okay

I received the Vichy Laboratories LiftActiv 16% Pure Vitamin C Brightening Serum in exchange for an honest review. I think it is okay. There is a lot of information on the box and under the label, including directions, but they don't state how much of the product to apply or what technique to use to...

Made my skin orange!

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned that it leaves your skin orange. My face and hands have orange, especially in the creases of my palm. I will not repurchase.

I'm a serum lover but have never used a vitamin c serum. I've clearly been missing out. After over a month of use my skin is visibly brighter and more radiant. It's has a silky smooth texture and absorbs easily into my skin. Definitely something I would use regularly.

Decent vitamin C serum

The VitaminC has a bright yellow color, and hasn't oxidized for ~3 weeks since I opened the bottle. One thing I like is the bottle is small, which I hope I can finish it before it oxidizes. The serum absorbs pretty quickly. The smell is not bad. I don't think my wrinkles significantly reduced but I do think it is slightly getting better so I am just going to be consistent

I'm a big fan of Vitamin C serums and my dry skin really glows when I incorporate it into my routing. This serum is very lightweight and absorbs rapidly fast. For me personally, I found that it was hard to spread on my skin since it's so dry but would definitely recommend for someone with combo or oily skin. It's gentle and the dispenser is sure to make it last a long time!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
