I would buy this product again and again

I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I've been using the Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester 20% Corrective Dark Spot Serum for a few months, and here's what I've discovered about it: **Scent:** The serum has a subtle, citrusy scent that feels refreshing rather than overpowering. It's ...

No real difference

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I found the serum to be very easy to use. The pump dispenses a small amount cleanly onto my fingertip, and I initially dabbed it directly onto my dark spots. Because my discolouration is spread across several areas of my face, I eventually f...

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I love this stuff. It smells great. Doesn't leave any residue on your face. There was no discomfort at all. I would buy this and use it everyday. It makes your skin feel silky smooth.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been loving this serum so far. The texture is great and doesn't have a weird smell like other vitamin C serums I've tried. The first day it felt like it left a residue, but I realized I had used more than needed. Haven't used long enough to see results, but seems like a great quality!

Good support along with good sunscreen

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This product is nice to have as additional support to the daily routine. I didn't see the improvement but it didn't become worse. The texture is a little sticky but provides good moisture content, it didn't irritate my skin or created any redness, pilling or breakouts. I think overall it is a good support to my sun-kissed skin rather the a solution to lighten my sun over processed areas. This year I became more UV protection aware and used Perricone MD Vitamic C Ester 20% Dark Spot Corrective Serum along with 100 UV cream all over my face at all times.
