feels really nice and absorbs well but didn't see any differences in my skin after going through 3 bottles
The Ordinary Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2% 15 ingredients
This Vitamin C is not for beginners. I got a chemical burn because of this and had to take a break with some actives to restore my skin barrier.
