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...

Nice skin cream
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This vitamin cream is top notch. My skin loves it, and it feels so good. The packaging is nice, and there is a little product tool to use while applying it to the skin. The jar is pretty large and should last a while. I love how it absorbs into the skin. The scent is kind of citrusy. It isn't bad. This product does not irritate my skin. I would recommend this product.

Smooth skin
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Not a big fan of the smell. It isn't gross or anything just not my favorite. No irritation what so ever. Very think product that absorbs nicely and moisturizing. Creamy consistency that will occasionally cause pilling after face oil is applied.



amazing
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I have fallen in love with this product. I have been putting it on in the mornings after cleansing my face and I love the way it feel. It is lightweight and makes my skin feel soft and moisturized, and I especially love that is has vitamin c included in the ingredients to help with brightening. It absorbs well into my skin and doesn't feel sticky. I am looking forward to continuing to use this moisturizer!


Not for me
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I have sensitive/acne prone skin and this did not help any current breakouts or prevent any, I would say I'm too sensitive to this. It applies nicely and absorbs well. I feel the yellow tint does give a type of subtle glow to your skin. It smells like crushed up dandelions, which doesn't smell great. The container is pretty however I feel like the applicator is just something extra taking up space. I would prefer if it could fit into the container somehow.
