Bright, healthy skin!
This is such a beautiful moisturizer! It was gifted to me by Sunday Riley. I loved it all, from the scent to the color and the lovely creamy texture. I stopped using it for a while because I microbladed my brows and I couldn't wet them so I stopped doing a proper skincare routine for a few days and ...

This C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Vitamin C cream has a beautiful bright yellow color and lightweight texture. I've been using this cream for almost a week, but I didn't notice any improvement in hydration, while I noticed the brighter skin tone. Giving it 3 stars, because, while it is a nice face c...

All the Vitamin C
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Excited to share my review for the C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer that I received in exchange for it First of all, it's quite visible from my before & after photos ,my skin is brighter, smoother & my dark spots and redness are basically non existent. The cute applicator makes dispensing the product a breeze, the smell is a bit strong but disappears after applying it and dried, it's smooth and not sticky and makes a great base for applying your makeup, giving you a subtle glow. I'm excited to recommend his product to all. Thank you #influenster @influenster & #Sunday Riley @Sunday Riley
My skin feels like a million bucks!
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I'm so glad I got to try it. I feel so fancy using this moisturizer. The first thing I noticed when I opened the jar was the vivid yellow orange color. My skin can be somewhat sensitive to Vitamin C moisturizers and creams, so I just used this as my nighttime moisturizer before bed. I really do feel like it gave my skin a vibrancy, a glow. It has a great texture. It soaks into the skin and it doesn't feel sticky. The cream is not too thick or thin. It's just right. The smell reminds me of going outside and picking petals off a yellow dandelion flower. A natural sort of smell. I've really been enjoying using this moisturizer and my skin likes it too. After use, my skin feels clean and bright.
Smells great and works well
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] First off this smells so good I can't get over it. I am a citrus girl through and through so that vitamin C smell is amazing. I put it on right after my shower and my skin went from feeling dry to hydrated almost instantly. As a dark circle queen the brightening is a nice plus. The color threw me off at first because it is very yellow but overall it's a 10!
Just ok
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I found this to just be ok, I didn't notice much of a brightening effect over the month I used it. I didn't think it seem to irritate my skin at first, but I took a small break and noticed the little bit of redness I had disappeared. I like the thick gel consistency, although it does leave a yellow tint when first applied. The packaging is luxurious and I like the spatula it came with. Maybe with more time I would have seen a lasting result but in the month I used it I wasn't impressed.
Glow
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This is a good product. But I have to say it has a strong fragrance. Not to chemicals but to the orange tree, if you grew up with a orange tree in your house this has the exact same fragrance. It absorbs quickly which is good and I use it every other day in the mornings, remember to always use SPF after this product. It gives my skin a cute glow.
