I'm alive again!
I would like to start out by saying last year cancer and I had a huge fight, needless to say I beat it. But....with 6 and a half months of chemotherapy and 6and a half weeks of radiation it took a lot out of me. Fortunately, I'm a Perricone women and have been off and on for around 20 years, I'm 59 ...

Please bring back your Vitamin C-Ester EYE SERUM!
I ordered the Vitamin C-Ester Brightneing Serum only because you no longer have my favorite which is the Vitamin C-Ester Brightening EYE SERUM. The Eye Serum was amazing and no other product you have works the same. Please bring back the Vitamin C-Ester Brightneing EYE SERUM! Thank you.

Been using a short while but like how easy goes on, absorbs quickly
Surprised!
So I got this bc I heard Perricone was CCC was a dupe for Skinceuticals even though it's just a couple dollars off but I went to look at all their products and they had this for a huge discount so I got it. I left in my drawer for a week and decided to use it and wow wow wow made a huge difference in 3-4 days. I keep looking at their site and on here for another promotion which they do have but I'm going to wait a couple more days lol. I am going to get 2 more. I should've gotten 2-3 that day I ordered and so mad I didn't bc wow you will see a huge difference. This will help with hyperpigmentation and really fast at that. I didn't really see anything about fine lines but I think that one is the anime one not sure but this helps with dark spots. The best when it comes to that. I will get the other one after I'm finished with this and the 2 more I order. I can't wait! But if you have any acne marks, dark spots or any hyperpigmentation this will help asap!!!!!!!!! Did not get any free products for this review but I'm really impressed!
Wow just WOW!!

I still can't believe how effective this really is. So I read that the Perricone's Vitamin C with the Ferulic acid and vit E is kind of like Skinceuticals's so I kept looking at these products but I didn't want to waste money on that just yet so decided to get this vitamin c & at the best time ever (plz bring back the promotion). It sat in my drawer for a week cuz I didn't really think it'll be like what it details but I was like wait this is Vit C I need to use now cuz I didn't want it to go bad and WOW WOW WOW I promise you after the first 2 times I used it…. Allllll I mean alllll my dark spots faded!!!!!!!!! I had sooo much hyper pigmentation due to acne but & the reason I waited a wk was cuz I thought the vit C I was using before this was helping but at that rate it would've took a year what this one did in one week!!!!!!! I still can't believe it!! My face looks so much brighter. I was so embarrassed to go out with all these scars I recently got but now I don't even cover my face with anything. I get so excited to wash my face and put this on. I did not receive anything for this… I really wish I did lol cuz man the prices are high but if you have discoloration you need to try it. I'm still amazed. And sorry this post is so long and everywhere lol. But really try this…. It works fast!!!
This was a repurchase and it is my vitamin C of choice.

I use this everyday as part of my skincare routine. Of course I wish it wasn't so expensive but it is my vitamin C of choice and I like the product. I have repurchased it many times and I will continue to repurchase it and use it because I like the way my skin look.
Nice serum
This is a nice vitamin c serum. I use it every morning and it's really gentle. I have sensitive combo skin and it melts into my face. It lays a nice foundation for moisturizer to sit on top.

- Q
Is this safe to use on your lips?
- Asked by Cwhite35
- Official Answer By Perricone MD - Brand EngageIt’s generally not recommended to use Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester Brightening Serum directly on the lips. Vitamin C Ester is gentler than pure L‑ascorbic acid, dermatology guidance still cautions against using vitamin C serums on lips, as they can cause stinging, dryness, or peeling in this area. You can apply the serum around the mouth, stopping just before the vermilion (the pink part of the lips).Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
I would like to know the percentage of vitamin C in this product. I am leaning toward another product from my medspa that is transparent regarding the level of vitamin C (THD). Please advise.
- Asked by TB
- Official Answer By Perricone MD - Brand EngageDue to our proprietary formulations, we don't disclose percentages. Depending on your skincare goals, we recommend our Vitamin C Ester Brightening Complex 20% for stubborn discoloration and firming.

It appears that you divulge that another of your VItamin C products are 15% and are not transparent about this one. Makes me question why. Must not be 15%.
