its ok
i have been using it for awhile and i have had some SMALL changes but there is definetly cheaper , better alternatives
I was ready to love this product as it has all the right stuff in, and it works, but damn, it makes the skin around my eyes sore and dry. It must be too much vitamin C for the sensitive skin around my eyes.
