The Ordinary Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%

Favourite vitamin C product. It delivers results, but is a bit of a hassle. I prefer to mix the product with a small amount of a bland moisturiser or serum. That way the grittiness disappears completely, and I also find the product absorbs more quickly.

I use this at night a couple of times a week. My skin is noticeably more glowing, even toned and plump in the morning. I have sensitive …Read more

If you have acne prone skin stay away!
It made my face full of whiteheads and blackheads that at first I didn't understand where they came from. And I am talking about places that I never had that problem before.
Furthermore, it is too oily and it seems to never absorb into the skin.

Not my favorite Vitamin C product. I thought this would be an easy way to introduce myself to vitamin C. I was looking for the brightening effects since I have some redness. I didn't like the texture of this product. It felt grainy going on and was a bit difficult to blend around my face. I gave it a week's worth of use before I just couldn't do it anymore. I know you are supposed …Read more

I really dislike this tube of vit C in the first few times when I use it. I feel not comfortable with my face after every use. It has very strong tingling sensation and gritty like most people could experience. I then stop using it as I can't cope with the tingling sensation and grittiness and just put it aside on my make up table until after I started to incorporate TO granactive retinoid …Read more

So I had heard mixed reviews about this but the positive outweighed the negative so i thought i would give it a try. It did NOT disappoint!
I have sensitive skin and was worried about the 'tingling' sensation it is known to give so i decided to try this at night. I applied a small about all over my face (avoiding eyes) on my cleansed and toned skin. Lo and behold the …Read more

I think the vitamin C in this product is preserved very well, well past 6 months. I did not finish the product in 6 months but went back to applying it sometimes afterwards and the vitamin C still felt active. I did notice some color changes on the dried residue when the product passed the 6 month mark.
The only downside is you may not like the texture, which is a bit thick like a hydrating …Read more

I’m a TO devotee and I’ve been using this for almost 1 year and I love it. Yes it’s a bit gritty and can sting if you’re not used to a higher concentrate of vitamin C but stinging diminishes after continued use. I’ve got really good skin with only very slight fine lines at 56 and I’m religious about skin care and this has improved, brightened and hydrated very well. To make it even more …Read more

I have been using Paula’s choice vitamin c for awhile. I have gotten my skin in good shape after dealing with dry skin from retinoids & hormonal acne as an adult. I saw many great reviews for this product & thought I’d give it a try.
Regret regret regret using on my entire face!! I accidentally got more product than I intended. So I applied all over my face. It was gritty & super …Read more

Has an odd texture and smell, wont deny that. Slight stinging and discomfort.
BUT....mix it 50/50 with your regular face moisturiser and it fn works. Absorbs, no stinging or irritation and its like your moisturiser draws it in and lets it sink in. It needs this, otherwise its not that pleasant.
I feel like my pigmentation has faded a little and my skin is very smooth upon waking …Read more

As my skin is crazy sensitive I was worried I won't be able to use this but I have been using it for 6 months now and so far, so good! I had no irritation whatsoever, didn't feel too oily on the skin and, all in all, I tolerate the product quite well. I know vit C is supposed to be used in the morning, but its texture makes it difficult to apply under foundation, so I use it only in the …Read more
