Worth trying if you're getting into the skincare game
I know it's good practice to have both of these things implemented into a skincare routine so I was excited to try this since the formula has both Retinol AND Vitamin C in the formula..I was taking 2 steps and combining them! This was my first time using Retinol and I was worried because I read it ...

Not doing this again.
I was excited to try this but was concerned about the mix i.e. Retinol + Vit C. I didn't realize these could be mixed as most sites say not to mix a retinoid and an acid. I am not new to retinols. I used this 2x a week, Tue, Fri, for two weeks. One day I had to take a double look at my face and ...

Brightening Results in Weeks: A Glow-Boosting Reti

I've been using the Multi-Action Super-C Retinol Serum consistently for almost three weeks now, applying it every night as part of my skincare routine. The packaging comes with a dropper, which I really appreciate—it makes application clean and mess-free. The serum itself is a vibrant orange color, and a little goes a long way. After just a few weeks of use, I've noticed visible improvements in my skin. My complexion looks noticeably brighter and more even-toned, and my face feels less oily overall. I have acne-prone skin, and I'm happy to report that this product hasn't caused any irritation or breakouts so far. In fact, it's helped reduce some of the dullness I used to struggle with—my skin has a healthy, natural glow now. The combination of Niacinamide and Retinol is powerful. It works well to smooth out uneven texture and lighten dark spots, but it can be a bit drying, which is expected with retinol-based products. I definitely recommend following it up with a good moisturizer to keep your skin balanced and hydrated. One thing I'm not a fan of is the fragrance. It's a bit strong for my preference, and I usually lean toward fragrance-free products, especially because I avoid anything with essential oils due to potential sensitivity. That said, the serum absolutely delivers on its promises. If you're looking for a product that can help brighten, correct skin tone, and add a subtle glow—especially in a short period—this is definitely worth trying. Just be sure to moisturize and wear SPF during the day to protect your skin while using active ingredients like retinol.
A powerful combo for brighter skin

I am big user of vitamin c serum and keep trying new serum. I am trying this serum first time . This has vitamin c along with retinol which help make it dual action product . It helps brighten the skin and also fade line and wrinkles. This serum is lightweight and get absorbed so quickly. It is not sticky or oily . It feels so good on skin. It has light fragrance which I like . It leaves a healthy glow on skin. I am loving this new addition to my skincare routine and looking forward to see good results. Like the packaging too.

I like the packaging of this product. I feel like it reflects the ingredients well. The texture of the product is not too thick, and it doesn't leave a residue. I felt it brightened my skin but didn't necessarily correct it. I think with more consistent usage, it should be able to fulfill all of rhe products claims.
Love it

I tried the StriVectin Multi Action Super C Retinol Brighten and Correct Vitamin C Serum, and I absolutely love it. StriVectin is one of my favorite brands I already use their Vitamin C Night Cream so when I saw this Super C Retinol serum, I knew I had to try it. I've been a consistent retinol user for years, so seeing retinol combined with Vitamin C felt like a must. This formula is very gentle it never caused any irritation on my skin, not even when I layered it with my other retinol serums. That alone makes it a standout. If you're looking for a brightening Vitamin C serum that truly delivers, I highly recommend this one. It's effective, gentle, and feels absolutely amazing on the skin. I really, really love this serum. This product was provided for free in exchange for my honest review.

Has a very light scent. The texture is nice and smooth and creamy. It actually soaks into the skin really quickly does not leave any sticky residue and the packaging is very functional and easy to use.
