The way this mf stings is absolutely insane.
Pilling, drying, irritating, doesn’t work, and literally every bad thing you can say about a product.

Honestly want to give it more of a 3.5, but rounded up to be generous. Have seen good results using it so far, mainly with skin brightening, but dislike the fact that it's basically up to a coin toss whether or not it decides to properly absorb in the skin or pills/dries/sits on top of the skin.

TL;DR: Expensive, but worth the hype! Best Vitamin C serum I've used! 🍊

I'd seen this in select drug stores every so often and liked the packaging, and knew it won Best of Allure or something one year, but didn't actually pick it up until a visit to Sweden. This is basically a hyaluronic acid serum with vitamin C and antioxidants, but it absorbs well, dries down quickly; and made my skin feel Show more
