Bright Complete 30x Vitamin C Booster Serum
Great for starting out and works fast in terms of brightening
Alleyson
Texture: Milky and a little thicker than water. Fragrance: Mild. Refreshing citrusy. It is light-weight, gets absorbed easily and quickly into the skin. I like that it doesnโt leave behind any greasy residue. I used this serum twice a day for months already and I am happy with the result. It helps improved my skin texture and reduced the dullness of my skin. It makes my skin look soft, smooth, bright, plumpy, glowy and healthy. It visibly lightens my pimple marks and dark spots.

๐ I received this from Style Korean for the try me review me Jumiso Event. ๐This toner has vitamin C as an ingredient. Vitamin C is amazing for fading dark areas like the under eye area. Not only does it fade it brightens too leaving your skin glowy and radiant. ๐It can help with skin sagging and is very hydrating. ๐ I lOve this toner, I didn't think my skin would be able to brighten so much. I'm very pale and my boyfriend told me I was blinding himโจ

๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ก ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ข๐๐ฃ ๐พ ๐ผ๐ข๐ฅ๐ค๐ช๐ก๐ ๐ At this age, I have yet to find a vitamin c serum that won't give me more cons than pros. It was a frustrating process so I settled for really gentle ones with no stellar effects or simply omit any vitamin c at all. For 2 weeks that I have been using this, I can be OK with longer term use. ๐ ๐ USAGE: 1x a day during my AM Routine for 2 weeks ๐ Notable INGREDIENTS: - a whopping 19% pure vitamin c ( L Ascorbic Acid) with NO WATER - citrus peel oil - limonene - adenosine ๐ TEXTURE/CONSISTENCY/FINISH: - yellowy orange tinted semitransparent bodied gel to fluid consistency that sets to a lightly dewy finish - not oily and not sticky at all ๐ As promised, this does give that glow even only after 2 weeks of use. - my overall tone lightened half a shade - the dark spot on my arm is almost gone ๐ It does feel warm upon application and tingles a bit ๐ I unbelievably appreciate the citrus-y fragrance as compared to others that I have tried. ๐ ๐ PACKAGING: dark tinted glass bottle with a dropper (and stopper) for dispensing the product ๐ 30ml with 3 months PAO

Though there is still warmth on contact, I didn't experience tingling, stinging or itching. I was hesitant at first 'coz of the "oily" feedbacks I have read but surprisingly, it absorbs well on my skin and didn't pill. The best part is... I was spared from purging ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ. The usual metallic smell is still present tho ๐คฃ no matter how many essential oils were included in the product. On it's brightening claims, it did just that. Nothing mind blowing but I'm ok that it got rid of post acne marks. ๐ค PACKAGING Now this is where I took half a point off for it to get a perfect rating. It's housed in a CLEAR bottle with a dropper type dispenser. Not really an ideal storage for Ascorbic Acid based serums. Anyway, I'm glad that mine hasn't started to oxidize yet ๐ - 35ml 12mos PAO but note if there is a change in color (oxidation) Yep, not perfect but will most likely end up in my annual faves list and will definitely repurchase
