This serum has been a skincare staple since I discovered it last year. It has helped to lighten the dark marks on my cheeks, and I have been struggling with those for several years. I used to have acne all along my jawline and anything with Vitamin C has helped tremendously.
The SEPHORA Vitamin C Serum costs $ 27 CAD for 1 ounce and as you can see in the demo below, you don’t need much to cover your entire face. A little goes a long way. I use about three drops each morning for my entire face and it’s an excellent base for any moisturizers you layer on top. It’s one of the more affordable options for skincare on the Sephora site.
According to the website, it’s great for dryness, which I can confirm since the lower half of my face is dry. It also contains Vitamin E and claims to help increase radiance and even skin tone. Suitable for all skin types, it boasts a vegan and clean tag on Sephora, an added bonus if you have sensitive skin. It has no weird smells and leaves your skin slightly sticky (which I believe is what most serums do). I use it after face wash but before any moisturizers.
Overall, I give it a 5/5. Affordable and efficient. If you have any other vitamin c serums that you use religiously that’s helped darkness, let me know in a comment below.
