Most Helpful Positive Review Improved Packaging and Formula I first purchased this product in 2019 in my search for vitamin c products. I'm pretty sure they updated the packaging and formula since then as the tube I purchased in August 2020 works much better. Before, the hole was too big and usually ended with me squeezing out too much product. The product itself was very slippery and prone to pilling while applying it to the face. I did like the fact that it went on similar to a silicone primer as it filled in my pores and gave a matte appearance without makeup.
The newest tube I purchased has a much smaller hole, so I can easily dispense a good amount of product. I also don't notice any pilling and the cream goes on much smoother now. With the changes, I would definitely recommend this product for a morning routine, but not a night routine.
Most Helpful Critical Review Glad I tried it, but it's not for me I was excited to see a vitamin C serum that had at least 20 percent vitamin C and even nailed the packaging. I like that it's an opaque squeeze tube, so light and air don't get in. They even use a silicone-base formula to keep the vitamin C stable. However, the formula was still too thick for me. It feels like a makeup primer, which might be ideal for those who wear a full face every day. I like something that absorbs more quickly and has a lightweight feel. I think it clogs my pores a little, too. But I would recommend it to anyone who has dry skin or likes a two-in-one serum and primer.
Reviewed by 28 customers Good vitamin c product that imparts clarity and brightness 4
Leah from Clarks Summit, PA
This is a good, well-formulated vitamin c. It will brighten your skin with regular use. You ought not assume that you will see results if you do not use this product consistantly. As other reviewers have stated, this will not wear well under makeup. If you wear makeup regularly, this will be better applied nightly. L-Ascorbic acid is gritty, but is the gold standard for vitamin c topicals, and many studies have been done to back this up. Fortunately for me, these days I forego makeup and even cc/bb creams, so I am able to wear this during the day. This product is reasonably priced, and I have seen results using 2x day (am+pm) for just over two weeks. I will wear this over my retinoid, but overnight you will notice off-putting smell from oxidation when you wake up in the morning. Same with the Exuviance brand little capsules of Vitamin C.
Not as good as people made it seem 1
VanessaT from LA
The reviews and even the name is very misleading. This is NOT a serum this feels more like a primer. It also doesn't mix well with other skin care products (hyaluronic acid, vitamin c, etc.) This also looks really bad under makeup I tried it with compacts full coverage foundations and even BB CREAMS but nothing looked good with it. Try at your own risk I always say what doesn't work for me might work for you which is why I tried it in the first place but I ended up losing.
I wanted to like this product sadly disappointed 1
Marty with the 3 boys from Texas
I purchased this because of the positive reviews and price. This is not a serum. It is thick, not emollient, and difficult to apply evenly to the face. I won't bother to return because it will just be thrown away. Don't waste your money.

My face has a new glow! 5
JamieR from Rockwall TX
I tried this product on a whim, going off the other high reviews and I'm so grateful I did! I didn't know I needed this serum as much as I do. After a month of use, my skin has a new glow that I didn't realize it was lacking. Red patches on my face are completely gone and no more breakouts. Before this serum I would have never thought I could go out in public without full foundation but now my face just doesn't need it.
Very abrasive 2
slec from TN
I know Vit C serums can be abrasive on sensitive skin, but I don't have sensitive skin and this causes redness and sensitivity everytime I use it. I've tried it once a week, a little in my moisturizer, avoiding the nose area etc.. but everytime I feel a burning sensation.
Not impressed with this brand 2
Elizabeth from BA
I bought this with the face lotion (which wasn't nearly moisturizing enough) and I'm so disappointed in this brand. The vitamin c is not cosmetically elegant at all. It's super gritty and hard to spread across the skin. It's also loaded with silicones and feels like you're wearing a primer. Because of the silicones my face feels suffocated and I noticed it's been perspiring a lot more frequently. If I use it at night I will wake up super shiny, and if I use it in the morning my skin will start sweating like crazy even when I'm not hot.
Also, I'm not sure if it's the grittiness of the product or what but this makes my face super itchy as well.
I'm beginning to think a lot of the rave reviews for this brand are fake. For it to be such a new brand to Ulta they sure do have a lot of 5 start reviews for nearly all of their products. Just something to think about.
Absorbs fast 5
Nixie from Windsor, Ontario, CA
I ike how fast it absorbs into the skin, I use it as part of my night time skincare routine. I use it after toning my face and before my night cream. It has helped a lot with reducing my breakouts, even when I am on my period.
My new favourite serum 5
Jen from Windsor, ON
I l ove this Vitamin C serum... my skin never looked better.
I had acne scars on my cheeks but since I started using this serum they started to faced!
I'm very happy to found this brand, all of their products are affordable and the more important, they do work!
smooth and like velvet 5
Amy from Toronto, ON
leaves face matte and looks fantastic underneath makeup.
Made my skin so bright! 5
Monica L from Toronto, Ontario
Absolutely love all of the indeed products, especially this vitamin c! My skin looks brighter and my dark spots most acne have faded because of it. So happy I added it into my skincare regime!!
Very effective, velvety-smooth product 5
Awalterson from Winnipeg, Manitoba
This is an amazing velvety-soft cream that worked wonders on the appearance of my skin! It was easy to apply, and just a small amount of product goes a very long way. It helped my skin look smoother, refreshed and vibrant. There was a slight stinging sensation (I think because I have some very dry areas on my face) but it went away after a few days. The faint citrus smell upon application was absoultely wonderful! I really enjoyed this product and will definitely be buying this in the future.
Amazing! 5
Summergirl007 from Toronto
Absolutely love this vitamin C serum. Most vitamin C serums make me breakout but this one doesn't. The combination of vitamin c plus hyaluronic acid is just what my skin needs and I don't have to purchase 2 different products to get both ingredients which is fabulous. My aging skin looks brighter and plumper. The lotion absorbs well and works well under makeup, it's not greasy either. I also appreciate that it's fragrance free!
best serum 5
raima from Ontario
I can honestly say this is a wonderful moisturizer! This moisturizer had my skin looking so fresh and radiant throughout the day. my skin feels fresh and glowy. it doesnt let any oil come and my skin was matte throughout the day. i highly recommend it.
You've Gotta Try This 5
ElizabethW from Prince Edward Island
I use this product in the morning and before bed. A little really does a long way. Using it twice a day I can really see a difference on my forehead wrinkles. The packaging is great so that you arent sticking your fingers in a jar. I really like the results from this product!
Definitely feels like Vitamin C cream efective 4
Skin Study enthusiast from Vancouver, BC
I think this may be quite an effective version of vitamin C creams. It hasn't discoloured at all yet and I've had my tube for almost a year already.
affordable waterless ascorbic acid 4
rkuip from Ontario, Canada
This is a great option for a vitamin c serum that won't oxidize. If you're not used to using actives, this is a very high concentration; I occasionally found it sensitizing, in which case I would reduce my usage to every other day, and/or buffer with a light humectant underneath. The 1-oz tube lasted me about two and a half months, using a pea-sized amount every 1-2 days.
I would buy it again for sure 5
Natalia from Chadds Ford, PA
If you have a dry to normal skin, this product is for you. Very high concentration of vitamin C. Best product for dark spots removal.
Absorbs like a dream! 5
VanYak from Toronto
So easy to use y seen other products every day
I love the feel of this and very good for the skin 5
lynne from Toronto Canada
I love the texture - easy to use
Helps make my skin brighter 5
Codi from Carlstadt, NJ
I had hesitated to try a vitamin c serum in the past because I heard they could cause redness and burning in sensitive skin. This product must be well formulated, because it's been super easy to use! I can just barely feel a teeny bit of warmth on my skin when using this, but no burning or itching. I like to apply this in the morning, straight on bare skin. It helps make my skin brighter and helps to take care of little discoloration spots. I like knowing it's helping to protect my face throughout the day as well. It spreads really nicely so a pea size is plenty for my whole face. I'm on my second tube!
Just bought a tube of C24 5
Florence from Singapore
Hello, I just bought a tube of C24. I also have my own hydrating serum, moisturizer cream and sunscreen. Which one do I use first after toner? Hydrating serum or C24? And follow by moisturizer?
Everything I could of asked for. 5
Jordan from Blountville, TN
I love this product. In the beginning I thought that it was breaking me out, but it turned out to be the moisturizer I was using. Once I figured that out and my skin cleared up I had a lot of scars that needed treatment. Let me tell you, this stuff works SO fast. My scars are becoming less noticeable every day I use this and you can see results from this product almost immediately. It's everything I could of asked for. Love love love.
Really enjoying using this product 5
Nicola from Bromley, UK
Really enjoying using this product. I have been using it as part of my PM routine and I love how it feels on my skin. It slightly tingles then smooths over the skin like a primer. My skin is so soft , much brighter, minimal fine lines plus the best bit I wake up with glowing skin every morning. Highly recommend this product.
