Mad HippieVitamin C Serum – Brightening Serum with Hyaluronic Acid, Ferulic Acid, Vitamin E

This is my second bottle of this. I bought the first at Whole Foods, on an impulse. Heard it was a good one, and wanted to try it, because I’d been disappointed in other, cheaper Vit C serums in the past. My skin is clear and in good shape, though I spent a lot of time in the sun when I was younger. I don’t reallyhave any deep wrinkles...it’s just that when you get past your 30’s, you lose that youthful glow....and I have some very fine lines...so, I usually am using at least one exfoliating anti aging product. While using this, I used it alone, because I wanted to see if it really made a difference. After washing my face, I’d apply this serum, a little eye cream, and then if it was morning, my makeup. I used the entire bottle, down to the last drop, so I feel I can give an honest review.One, it works, and quickly. Within a week or so, I saw a smoother texture to my skin. By the end of the bottle, my skin definitely looked smoother, brighter, and 3 darker spots on my face (sun damage) were at least 80% lighter. I have one on my right cheek and two on my jawline, that I would cover with concealer. Amazingly, they are almost gone. Two, it’s pleasant and easy to use. Not really luxurious, and has no scent, but who cares if it works? The serum has an almost watery texture, and sinks in fast. A few drops go a long way. I spread it over my face, neck and chest after cleansing at night, and sometimes - though not always - applied in the AM as well. Three, I had no breakouts or irritation from this product. I applied it everywhere, including my upper eyelids...but I don’t recommend that, especially if you have sensitive skin.I bought my second bottle from Amazon, I think it was the same price, but I see right now that it’s priced at several dollars less. Will definitely keep using this, and maybe even try more products from this company. Highly recommended.Edited to add: due to my positive experience with this product, I decided to go with the company’s recommendation to use the stronger Vitamin A serum at night and use the Vitamin C in the AM. I know there are some negative reviews here, and wish people would describe their skin condition before leaving reviews. Possibly if one has really deep wrinkles or extensive aging or sun damage, the effects of these products are going to be minimal, or take a lot longer to show results.

This vitamin C serum really does what it says it will.When applied, you can feel it working on your skin. It makes your skin look alive, and overtime. It does somewhat fade sun damage spots. Your moisturizer goes on much more smoothly, and you use less of it.If you wear a foundation, it improves the look of it as well. I highly recommend this product.

I don’t have any experience with vitamin c serums, but I wanted to try one to help get rid of some age spots I started getting. I researched for hours for the best affordable vitamin c serum that doesn’t have other possible toxic ingredients added such as phenoxyethanol and found this one! It’s more expensive than I really wanted to spend on a serum but still cheaper than many other high end ones. It’s only been less than a week since I started using it, but I already noticed my age spots lightening up! It also makes my face feel very hydrated all day and plump. Overall my face also looks brighter and it feels so gentle I haven’t experienced any sensitivity to this product at all. I even use it under my eyes and I feel like it’s helped brighten my dark circles a bit. After trying this serum, I don’t think I can live without something like this now in my skincare routine and I plan to keep purchasing when it runs out. I’ve tried other serums before (not vitamin c) that were harder to apply but the texture of this one was easy to spread across my face even with only 2 drops. Seeing as to how I already see improvements after less than a weeks use, I definitely recommend it. I didn’t have high expectations but I love the improvements I’ve noticed so far

Love it. I was a little wary about buying a new Vit C serum, but the one I used to get on Amazon, that I loved, was discontinued. So, after a crazy amount of searching and seeing all the positive reviews, I bought it. You go through it pretty fast, I like a thick layer for it to really soak in.What it does for me after a few weeks, using almost every night:-My sensitive skin feels taunt and smooth with it on, supple and clean when I wash it off in the AM.-The minor discolorations I have aren’t really any different but this isn’t meant for that.-It didn’t make me break out at all, in either pimples or a rash (big plus because everything freaks my skin out).-Peering at my skin, it looks like the fine lines by my eyes aren’t as noticeable, which is really nice, and my skin looks great.-My under eye skin isn’t as crepey, also big plus.So this is exactly like the one I used to have.I use it at night, under my night moisturizers. Every few days I switch up and do retinol cream eyes/face at night instead for added wrinkle busting.So for a good Vitamin C serum, I adore it. I’ll keep buying it until something else comes along that might beat it.

I think this product works really well. Honestly, I'm not sure exactly what the end result should be. I play tennis and I'm in the Texas sun 3-5 days/week. I do use sunscreen but felt I was still getting to dark. I can tell this has lightened up my face. Not crazy noticeable, but it seems to work great. It does dry the face a little but moisturizer will fix that. I do recommend this product!
