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.

I have been using it since months. AM PM. I keep my routine simple with a cleanser serum sunscreen n Moisturizer. I wanted to use only this one to see if it helps with the claims they make. Nothing. Literally no difference at all. I am highly disappointed :(

Best serum for fading acne scars
I have been using this product for almost 3 years now and it is very effective at fading my discoloration from acne and brightening my skin. I definitely recommend this product.
Not good for sensitive skin.
I've been trying different products from The Ordinary to brighten and even out my skin tone. I'm in my 50s with combination sensitive skin. This product caused a lot of redness and irritation on my upper cheeks. I didn't get to use more than two weeks. I tried to skip a day, and then use sparingly, but gave up as I was having to cover redness that I never had before, and it immediately went away when I stopped this. Disappointing and a waste of money. If you have sensitive skin be careful.
