   Since I started using it I have noticed a big difference in my skin- it’s glowing more and the serum has evened out my skin tone a little. But the texture of this is soooo heavy and sticky I can never use it during the day. I have to use it at night only because it’s way too sticky to use during the day.

   Loved this! I’m 31 so I don’t have issues with firmness or wrinkles yet but this product made my skin more smooth/even toned and lightened my discolorations in just 2 weeks!

   The packaging suggests that you apply 4-5 drops on clean dry skin once a day for 10 days but after a week of using it with this rate half the bottle was left and started developing a metallic odor. I took it as a sign of oxidation and increased the amount. Next time I’ll use 10 drops for each application.

   Other than that it felt just like splashing water to your face, no stickiness after 10 seconds and no discomfort/stinging/irritation. Followed with Mineral 89 and a simple moisturizer. If it was cheaper I’d use it every day but will repurchase after a few months.

   I love this product! I used it as directed and found the results to be noticeable (smoother, brighter skin) and quick. I applied the product to my fingertips, then to my face and patted it in. I found it absorbed pretty quickly (a little sticky for the first few minutes), and within the first couple of days my skin improved. I’ll definitely re-purchase, and do it again in a few months.

   Absolutely love this product.
   After just 7 days, my skin in brighter and soooooo smooth!
   It didn’t help though with my old scars.

   Used this at night and it absorbs very quickly.
   I like this over The Ordinary Vitamin C 23%.
   This one is a smooth liquid and does not leave a tacky feeling. it feels like water.
   The Ordinary 23% is a suspension and is oily and gritty.

   Both give me great skin. If I were to consider the texture and smell, I’ll choose Vichy.

   Love how flawless my skin is and how easily makeup goes on now 🙂

   I purchased this because I liked the simple ingredient list and the fact that it contained 15% vitamin C. This is a very lightweight serum that absorbs easily into the skin. Once opened, the vitamin C serum is good for 30 days only. It is in a brown glass bottle with a dropper applicator. I use 4 drops to cover my face. I did notice brighter looking skin within the first two weeks of using this product. After 6 weeks of use, my skin looks younger. I still have fine lines and wrinkles, but the overall appearance of my skin is plump, more even toned and youthful. I am 51 years old and feel this this does improve the look of my skin. I have combination skin and this does not cause break outs.

   I had been used to mixing the Drunk Elephant Vitamin C Serum in with my moisturizer but did not feel like it was doing much for my skin. I’ve had my eye on some other options but what interested me most about the Vichy product is:

   1. It contains just 11 ingredients
   2. This is used just 3-4 times per year
   3. You only need to use 4-5 drops on clean skin for 10-14 days
   4. The bottle is small (10ml) and dark which prevents spoilage
   5. It does not contain parabens, perfumes or silicones

   I used this daily for 14 days on clean skin, followed by Vichy Mineral 89, then my moisturizer. The texture is very thin/watery, not gritty or sticky like some other Vitamin C serums I’ve tried in past. It has a light yellow hue which is from the ingredients, not because it has spoiled. My skin is used to “actives” so I did not experience any tingling while using the serum. I actually like that the bottle is small and contains just enough to ensure it is used up during the treatment time frame of 10-14 days which practically guarantees you get fresh ingredients.

   Since using this Vitamin C I can say that it has produced visible results in as little as 7 days which is far quicker than other Vitamin C serums or spot corrector formulas I have tried before. I do like that this is more of a “treatment” that is done only 3-4 times a year which is way less maintenance for me. I will re-purchase this at the beginning of each season.
