A Kind and Gentle but Effective Vitamin C product

Most Vitamin C serums break me out badly. This one didn't, not even at all, yet over the weeks I've used it I have noticed a gradual improvement in my skin clarity. It pairs well with other serums, and doesn't leave an oily residue, just a nice radiance to the skin. I have already repurchased. It's not a miracle but it's quite effective over time and one of the few Vitamin C products I've found that I can use every day without breakouts. Love it!

LOVE.

This is a new staple in my routine. This is my third bottle. My skin feels glowy and hydrated and it helps my fine lines.

Not noticing any difference so far

I love the LB Repair Balm and so was excited to try more of their products. This serum appears to be highly rated, so that and given its high cost I had high expectations. My initial impression is the serum doesn't have a wonderful smell like the other LB products I've tried. Not a dealbreaker, but a bummer. I've been applying the serum each morning after a rose water toner. The oil feels fine going on, though I sometimes add another moisturizer after application since it doesn't give me much on its own. I'm unfortunately not seeing any results (which might just be because I haven't been using it long enough). Given the cost, I do not see myself purchasing again to see if time will make a difference with this one.

Thank you for your review! We hope to use this as an opportunity to clarify the product.

The active ingredient in this blend includes the max recommended 10% of Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, a stable (yet costly) vitamin C derivative with a wide body of dermatological studies on its efficacy, especially for sensitive skin. There are many people who have found support with this blend, especially when part of a balanced routine and SPF.

To set expectations we note the following in the Ritual section of the page:
'Allow 9-16 weeks with continued use to see effects, according to clinical testing.'
'For best results apply day and night after cleansing, toning, water-based serums, and moisturizer. For dry skin, follow up with a facial balm.'

As for aroma, most of our products are essential oil free, including this blend. Many people struggle with essential oils and wanted to provide a Vitamin C option geared towards this skin type.

We do value feedback and hope this helps others in their skincare journey.
