I don’t usually like scented skincare, but this product’s scent is genuinely soothing. It’s very gentle and doesn’t leave my face dry.

Wait couple mins after washing to use

IIRC Vit C takes some time to show improvement. I don’t see any major changes yet, but this isn’t irritating me and the formulation is easy to apply.
Wait for treatment to dry and/or a couple min after washing face to apply

I have an older formulation that I found unopened in the bottom of my storage. It does a good job, but it is very mildly irritating, and I think once it’s empty I’ll swap for something without LA since I have that in my routine already.

Another previous/current love. Skin is smoother and it doesn’t irritate me too much. The smell is something though.
No Lactic Acid on days with Tretinoin. Working up to Tu/Th/F/Su
Wait a couple min after wash & between acid and moisturizer

Another current/previous love. It’s soothing, moisturizing, and absorbs quickly.
Usually mixed with an oil, currently Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil.
