Most Helpful Positive Review Beautifying First of all, I would like to compliment EL for their serums textures! I just can't be happier enough with both this Vit C serum and Advanced Night Repair. Specifically for the Vit C serum: it glides on the skin just perfectly, it absorbs fast, it is not sticky, it is lightweight enough to be a perfect product for skincare layering. My skin is combination-oily, and this serum does not add any excessive oil shine. It has no distinctive smell too. I've been using a sample for about 10 days AM, and will be buying a full version. I did notice that my skin tone looks more even and has a glow from within. I do not have any discoloration, only some "seasonal" freckles which I normally get after a beach vacation. Nothing happened to the freckles yet, however, I do realize that a week is not enough to address any pigmentation. I also think that the serum is moisturizing well (the skin doesn't feel tight even with the serum alone) and plumping. Summarising: it is a very comfortable, gentle product, which is perfect for those who want to introduce Vit C to their skincare routine.
Most Helpful Critical Review Burned my face bad - ruined my vacation I went to Estee Lauder to get a new foundation for an upcoming vacation back in February - the lady convinced me my skin was dry and this would help with my dark spots. I also bought the toner she suggested. Used it for a week and each day my skin got more red and dry. I thought maybe it would get dry and peel with a new layer of skin so I continued using it. It made my skin raw and it hurt very bad. I went on vacation with burnt, red, irritated skin. My skin hurt so bad and there was nothing I could do to make it stop. It took a month to get better, If you try this product - do not be as stupid as me and STOP using it immediately if you experience any side effects.

I can't stand the smell. Plus it doesn't make my skin feel soft like other facial items.
So far so good 5
Brooke from IN
The formula is great not too thick not watery. It absorbs super fast and has a light light estee lauder smell. It woyld be okay to layer products also. I have a good feeling about this but havent used it long enough yet to say.
Excellent Serum 5

I have been using this serum since a month ago and it is wonderful. It is not greasy, absorbs fast, nice texture, gives me clarity. My skin is brighter, glowing ands sun spots are gone...gone. I am so happy with this serum. I could see the improvement of my skin during the first week and about my sun spots during the second week ....Do not discontinue this amazing product . It is the best in the market.....Thanks Estee Lauder.😊

Another good product from Estée Lauder. Nice texture gives very nice healthy glow to the skin .But so far I have not seen any changes on my acne marks and sun damage that's why gave it 4 stars.

Good 5
Kitty from portland
I've used some trial suits. Their texture is easy to absorb and won't make the skin feel greasy. I like it very much. As for whether there is whitening effect, because I use the time is not long enough, can not clearly say.

This stuff is amazing!! I have gone through one full bottle, which lasted quite a while using two times per day, and my face is glowing! It looks so much brighter and healthier and a stubborn age spot on my forehead is much lighter!
very nice 5
yi from New York
After using the trial pack, I think it's good, buy back the formal suit, mild, not stimulating, not greasy, insist on using it will not let you down, continue to support Estee Lauder!

Erin from Pittsburgh,PA
You can feel a difference the first time you apply it. You can see a visible difference in tone and spots after one week. Love this addition to my daily regimen.

It can make my skin a lot whiter and has a moisturizing effect. It is suitable for using this essence all year round. I like it very much and I will continue to buy it.

Good brightening 3
Ross Alvez from Doral
I bought this brighteningand I have been using it's not bad at all but I have oily skin and acne scars and I'm using this brightening I just feel my skin soft, but I don't see any different, maybe this it's not a brightening for acne skin. Even my mom is using this too and I don't see any difference.
