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...

Yes please!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This product is pretty cool. Not only will it cleanse your face, neck and surrounding areas. It brightens and firms the places as well. I also tried it as a primer for my primer. It's really good makes everything so smooth.
I love it
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I love the texture, how it moisturizes the skin, it contains a little aroma, smell like citrus. It s very good I love it. Perfect for every day. I recommended it.
Hydrating and brightening
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I absolutely love this cream. I use it morning and night and it has made a big difference for me. I love that this has hardly any scent and it leaves my skin feeling hydrated. I didn't experience any breakouts with this cream which is another plus. There's a little spatula thingy that comes with the cream and it makes applying the cream so much easier. My skin looks healthier and brighter than before.
Like Butter
I was a little scared to try the Sunday Riley Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer because I have combination skin and it usually gets oily when using some moisturizers. However this moisturizer was not oily or sticky at all and it glides on the skin like butter which makes it easier to massage into the skin. I like to apply the moisturizer at night so it has enough time to absorb to get the best results. It does have a lemon grass earthy scent and once it settles into the skin there's a mild Froot Loops cereal scent that lingers. The packaging is a cute ombré summery orange color and the moisturizer itself is a bright yellow color.
New favorite Glow+Hydration
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I tried the C.E.O afterglow brightening vitamin C moisturizer and really love how it feels on my skin. It is lightweight, deeply hydrating, and gives my complexion a brighter, healthier glow. It absorbs quickly without feeling heavy or greasy. I have also noticed that a dark spot has started to look lighter since using this product. I would add that it is great for men also, my husband usually has a hard time using mosturizers, but he likes this one for the same reasons I do. Our skin feels energized!
