Excellent value and effective
It arrived quickly and well packaged. I saw this recommended on a mature skin beauty vlogger channel and thought I’d give it a go because the active ingredient made sense. I have a sensitive combination skin with open pores and a few fine lines. I’ve been using it morning and night as directed then adding a layer of the Ordinary 2% hyaluronic acid +B5 on top. I seems to tighten, plump and smooth my skin all at the same time and I’m very happy with the results. I can really see a difference. I mix the powder with a few drops of water in the palm of my hand and apply to the face, neck and back of my hands. It does sting and tingle on my face for a few seconds immediately after application which is unpleasant and it makes your skin tastes like a vitamin c pill all day which is not wonderful, but I’m very glad I found it and it works for my skin.

Give it a try
i have bought very expensive Versions of this and ive loved it!!, the fact "The ordinary" has the same version but half the price is incredible, i use it with all my creams, especially any water based Gels.you only need half spoon( Spoon provided) to any creams an you will get instant Vitamin C fix it may sting slightly that became its active product, if it does happen add more cream to the Vit C powders..fantastic for Brightening your skin.

Authentic vitamin c
I hardly write reviews but , this is a great product. Helps to smooth texture and reduce scars. Very finely milled so you can add it in many other skincare products. Most products that claim they have vitamin c in it have probably oxidised and are adding zero benefit to your skincare. I have super oily skin and adding this to my spf helps to matte it out. This should help all skin types with an all over glow. Deffo give it a go if you’re looking to give your skincare a boost

Refines skin texture and fades scars.
This takes some time to fade marks (started seeing results on the 2 week of usage) however it will leave your skin more refined and smoother, does have some stinging but that usually subsides within a few minutes this is a great way to fade acne marks/hyper-pigmentation and even out your skin tone, just make sure you limit the amount of air it's exposed to and keep it in a cool dark place.

The product quality is outstanding. Exactly what I needed for my work.
Mix a small amount with other treatments in the palm of your hand and apply to face in the AM or the PM. A tingling sensation can be expected after application.
