burned so much even for me that i tolerate burning sensations, made my eye swell but that MIGHT be my mistake for putting it close to my eyes
Hard to rub into skin as it is very matte and smells bad
Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum 27 ingredients
my favorite serum
I wear this every morning, combined with the Sunday Riley C.E.O. face oil. It has a great citrus scent. I feel that it has contributed to lightening my dark spots and giving me a brighter complexion.
