Pretty good, only seen a little difference but that's cuz I can't stay consistent to save my life ☠️
Great budget SAP vitamin C with a solid supporting cast of TXA, licorice root extract, ceramides, & niacinamide.
I’ve been using for 6 months and haven’t had any issues. My hyperpigmentation has been fading, but I also use tretinoin cream
