MeaningInMakeup review for Vitamin C Brightening Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++

I received this product for free from Picky and COMMONLABS in exchange for my honest review. As always: products like this one need to be re-applied every two hours to properly protect you from the sun’s rays. On to the good stuff! I was so amazed by the texture of this one. I’ve tried other sun serums and essences that are white cast free like this one. But I was still impressed by it. As soon as you apply it, there is no whiteness to blend out. I love how lightweight it was, and even though it is a jelly texture, I didn’t find it to be sticky. Even as a serum, I also found this to be a hydrating enough option that I didn’t need to layer a cream on top of this product. It may be thanks to the hyaluronic acid in the formula. Speaking of ingredients, the obvious one on the front of the packaging is vitamin C. This product features unique vitamin C capsules that break down as you rub it into your skin. It also features niacinamide, and the two ingredients are fantastic at helping with post acne hyperpigmentation. I’ve actually found that keeping Vitamin C in my routine can help prevent acne in the first place, so it’s one of my favorite ingredients to keep in my routine. I really enjoyed how this product left my skin feeling. I deal with dry leaning and overly sensitive skin and I was able to handle this formula. I tend to also have fragrance sensitivities, but the scent was light. Probably because I prefer fruity scented skincare. I would say that this one leans on the lemon/lime citrus scent profile, and didn’t smell like chemicals or cleaning supplies in my opinion. There also wasn’t any stereotypical SPF scent that a lot of us grew up with in the US. So that’s another thing that I appreciated about this sun serum. If you’re looking for a new formula to try out this summer, I highly recommend this one.
