Under-rated
Other than Obagi Vitamin C + Hydroquinone, this is the best Vitamin C I’ve used. I took a break from the Obagi about 6 months ago because of the hydroquinone. Since then I’ve used Naturium, Vichy, the Ordinary, and Purador. In a week, the Purador gave me a glow and brightened my skin. I can tell a huge difference. It’s my new go to when I’m not using Obagi!

It’s almost only natural ingredients hence the smell and sediment. Huge bottle for that price!
Shake a lot at first use and shake few times before any use to have smooth texture. It gets awesome golden color. manufacturer suggest to use it in the evening. Probably because of retinol. After first use my skin felt numb, which is a good indicator that it’s a strong serum. So be aware to use good Show more
