I had such good results with the Vitamin C powder from The Ordinary that I didn't think anything could top it. After a year of constant use (along with daily use of the Mineral Factors and twice weekly application of the AHA peeling solution), my skin was so bright, so clear and any old hyperpigment...

Be careful with this at night time!

The product itself seems to work well for my skin (Dry-sensitive), leaving it smooth and glassy, which a reduction in the appearance of sunspots. HOWEVER, be careful using this at night/bed time. It has left black bleach marks all over my white pillowcases and sheets from it rubbing off my face onto...

The serum is a little bit sticky, absorbs veeeery guickly - it can be problematic in aplication somethimes but I learned how to work with it. I think it helped my with post inflammatory pigmentation (but not with dark circles under eyes) and with wrinkles.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I've been using this product every AM and I absolutely love the way it dissolves onto my sensitive skin. I can put it under sunscreen & make up without feeling oily. I have also noticed some improvement in my dark spots. I will continue with this product.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I've been using this product for about 6 weeks now. I wasn't big on my skincare routine before, just a cleanser and moisturiser. Now I have a full routine in place with The Ordinary and I wouldn't go back. I've seen a huge difference in my skin and other people have commented too. This has made my skin so much brighter and has really evened out my tone. Between this and the other products in my regime, my complexion is clear, my skin is brighter and it feels fully moisturised. I haven't worn a bit of make up in 4 weeks and I previously never left the house without it.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
