Good, But Doesn't Work For My Skin Type
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The bottle was sealed so you add the dropper yourself. The dropper itself didn't fill as much as I thought it would, yet it still worked for the drip control of the formula. The scent is very light & pleasant. Nothing felt like it was too gr...

Good quality
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I received this complimentary from unfluenster in exchange for my review of this product. Very high quality product, nice packaging, goes on smoothly. This absorbs well. I believe it would help with oily skin type.
Great for oily skin
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using the La Roche-Posay Vitamin C12 Oil Control Serum and really like it. It goes on light, helps with shine, and makes my skin look brighter without feeling heavy. Great option if you've got oily skin.
Keeps skin balanced and glowing
This serum is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and keeps my skin looking fresh all day. I've noticed a big improvement in radiance and less shine in my T-zone. It layers well under moisturizer and makeup without feeling heavy. My skin feels smoother and more balanced after just a few weeks.

Oh new favorite friend
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using the La Roche-Posay Vitamin C12 Oil Control Serum for a few weeks now and my skin loves it. The texture is silky—not greasy—and it sinks in fast. I use just a few drops in the morning and my skin stays balanced all day with noticeably less shine. My complexion looks more even and bright, and I've had zero irritation (even with sensitive skin). The light citrus scent feels fresh and clean, and the packaging is sturdy and luxe. This is officially part of my skincare ritual.


Amazing
La Roche-Posay always has reliable quality products. The vitamin C12 is not different! The oil control really helps in the summer heat and humidity. I haven't used this longer enough yet to see the brightening but the oil control helps!
