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 ...

Brightening
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...

Glow from within ✨
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This thick yellowy moisturizer instantaneously gives the appearance of soft lighting hitting the high points of my face. It is thick and you need just a few light swipes. It will take almost a year to finish the high quality jar. Worth its price per wear, it's a tiny bit sticky but your skin will drink it up and leave a velvety smooth surface. It has a unique scent, reminiscent of fruit loop cereal. I enjoy applying it before bed or as a day cream.
Okay
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Love the packaging! I really liked the consistency of the product it felt thick and luxurious. It does have a strong smell I will say that. It makes your skin look plump and beautiful, it does go on a little thick so I was using it at night. I used it for a couple weeks, but then had a reaction to something in my skincare and cut everything out. So I'm not sure if this was the cause or not.
Smells SO Good!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I didn't think I would actually see results after a week, but you can tell a difference in your skin! It feels so much healthier and my complexion looks better overall. The little applicator that comes with this is so cute, such a fun little touch. But my favorite part? It smells delicious. Why are there so many face creams that don't? Thankful for this product!
It was all yellow...
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Sunday Riley is a brand I've only so far tried samples of. I've heard great things, great reputation! Been using this a few weeks. Upon opening, I looove that it has the Spatula inside. Makes it feel a little glamorous ✨️ My face was much more perplexed when seeing the actual moisturizer. It is...very yellow. Like, neon moon yellow. I did a little search to make sure my product was not contaminated by the ooze in TMNT. Seems legit. It does make your face radiant and glowy. I only used this when I was also wearing foundation that day because that yellow, for me, does leave a hue of it on my face. Could be a head trip for me, but I felt a little yella. But the glow, fantastic. Moisturized? Absolutely. Smell, Bright and Citrusy. Going to keep using and see how it goes.
Love the bright yellow!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Love the bright color of this lotion! Really makes me feel like I'm indulging with Vitamin C because of that gorgeous color! Gives my skin a nice glow that isn't too shiny or greasy. Just enough of a lift to make my skin look supple. As I've aged, I've lost elasticity in my face and neck and this has improved my skin. I don't smell or see any added fragrance which is nice. It's a subtle orange peel smell but not strong at all.
