It's back!

OMG! The original formula is back! I am so happy! I've been using this since, at least, 1998, and have been hiding my face since the todo with that reformulation. I feel like I can show my face again! Nothing made me happier. I could go without makeup and get compliments on how beautiful and unwrink...

I have been using this since 2019, and have always loved the creamy consistency of the product, which reassured I was using a quality product.

FYI- if you are purchasing with FSA- 3 stars only because ulta lists the product as fsa approved, but it is not. My claims processor says that any product with spf 15 plus that the main purpose is cosmetic (ie for photo brightening) but just happens to have spf, is NOT approved. This is purely around the way the item is marketed that makes if NOT fsa approved.

I've used Vitamin C Ester Photo-Brightening Moisturizer for years now. It pairs well with the Vitamin C Ester Face Lift serum: once serum is applied first and has absorbed, use the SPF Vitamin C moisterizer on top. The consistency is fluffy and easy to blend and the light subtle tint helps smooth out the appearance of wrinkles or imperfections. It leaves a glow.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
