elmt - itsirgs review for Frameless Pure Vitamin C 20% Element

I received this product for free from Picky and elmt in exchange for my honest review. •key ingredients: -propanediol; -ascorbic acid (20%); -butylene glycol; -glycerin; -panthenol; -prunus armeniaca (apricot) kernel oil; -etc. •packaging: comes in a dark green airless pump bottle packaging which is really cool •thoughts: this is my first vitamic c serum/product… at first i was afraid to applied this serum due to the high percentage of pure vitamin c. it’s a waterless serum (to reduce chances of the ascorbic acid to going bad before use) so the texture is very thick and takes a while to absorb into the skin so the serum is kinda sitting there in your skin because it takes times for its to absorb and it kinda makes my skin greasy, but the good thing is… it’s moisturize my skin, and the afterwards feeling is not heavy at all. there’s a slightly this warm sensation when you applied it but it was a natural and non-irritating phenomenon / reaction due to high concentration of vitamin c and it will go away just for a seconds, but even with a high concentration (20%) pure vitamin c or asorbic acid this serum is not irritating my sensitive skin even though i have some active acne (the “certified safe for sensitive skin” claim is true after all, because it’s contain smaller particles). i really love this serum because it really brightens my skin and fades my PIE and dark spots really well and also smoother my skin texture, easily become one of my holy grail product! and i use this product only on my AM routine with sunscreen for now… imagine the effects it gives to my skin if i use it also on the PM routine too.
