   IN LOVE! This vitamin C from By Wishtrend changed my skin, making it GLOWIN’ like a diamond! I don’t have enough words to describe my happiness when I finally found a product with quite a high concentration of vitamin C (21.5 %) that has minimal non-irritating ingredients that are fungal acne safe, that is vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free, sulfate-free, alcohol-free, silicone-free & EU allergen-Free. Just wonderful for my sensitive and quite capricious skin (normal/dry in the winter and normal/oily in the summer, that is prone to dullness and sagging). It promotes wound healing, brightens the skin & prevents aging and acne scars while enhancing collagen and elastin production, helping the skin repair itself as efficiently as possible. It has been 5 months since I started using this product in the evening on a daily basis, except on every third day when I exfoliate with the 10% Lactic acid from The Inkey List (best AHA product I have ever tried). First, I cleanse my skin and dry it, then I put on the vitamin C everywhere on my face and neck (never forget your neck ladies and gentlemen!). I let it sit at least for 20 min, before putting my toner and moisturizer (letting it sit a little bit before continuing your routine will make the product more effective). It dries down pretty quickly, but feels a little sticky when touching the skin, but why would you even touch it? Anyway, as soon as you put your moisturizer on, you won’t feel the stickiness anymore. Although it usually takes 2-4 weeks to see the results of a vitamin C product, the first time I used this product, the morning after my skin was already shinning and looking brighter! Although I don’t have big problems with acne, I sometimes get some bumps and it helped them to disappear more rapidly. Now, thanks to this Vitamin C, the AHA and doing once a month dermaplanning (fancy word for shaving your face, I recommend the Shiseido facial razors) my skin is flawless, almost perfect, shinning & brightened from hyperpigmentation. Don’t forget to keep the product in the fridge, because vitamin C has a short shelf life since it oxidizes when exposed to oxygen. I really hope more people will discover this wonder and please, oh lord please, never discontinue it!

   I’m enjoying the offerings from By Wishtrend.  By Wishtrend seems to make products that are full of beneficial ingredients, and leaving out the fragrance and drying alcohols.  I’m always on the search for good Vitamin C serum and I LOVE trying new ones.  I’m still on the hunt for a Skinceuticals quality level serum for a bargain.  If you are in need of a good vitamin c product, look no further than By Wishtrend.

   In my opinion the Wishtrend Advanced Serum is great for most skin types, especially oily skin since the Advanced Serum has a light watery texture.  It isn’t oily or “serum-y” it really feels like applying water to your skin.  This is a good and bad thing.  The serum applies easily and absorbs quickly, however, I feel like a small amount of the serum is wasted because it is runny and the liquid runs down your hands and arms.  Thankfully this serum isn’t ridiculously expensive so losing a little during application isn’t a huge deal.

   The Wishtrend Pure Vitamin C 21.5% Advanced Serum works very well under other skincare serums, moisturizers, and sunscreens.  It really absorbs so fast that you don’t hardly feel like you’be applied anything at all.  I love that this has a rather short ingredient list, definitely a positive for those with sensitive skin or ingredient allergies.  One more thing to love- the price!  This retails for $29.99 (although I recommend checking for promo codes).   My more detailed review can be seen here-

   This broke me out badly. Initially thought it was the purge, but it went beyond that. My skin was dry, irritated and it stung every time I put on my very trustworthy moisturizer. Before using this, I had tried the vitamin C serum from Klairs, which actually cleared my skin up very fast and it felt very good on my skin, despite the fact that it only contains 5% vitamin C. I figured this serum would just make my skin even better, though I was prepared for a purge. The physical, and not to mention mental, discomfort got too much. It also oxidized veeeery quickly, even though I was super careful with it. I stored it in the fridge at all times and always put it back immediately after using it. Super disappointed! Maybe such a high percentage isn’t for my skin. Really looking forward to having clearer skin!

   I used this product for last 2 months regularly on my night time regimen. The result was plumped, bright and healthy skin. But As I had to travel places I left my bottle and haven’t used for couple of weeks as I couldn’t find the serum here and the result is just too painful. My skin has become so irritated and the acne has started over my face ( I didn’t use to have lot of acne before). Too depressing how my skin looks now.

   I concur with most thing mentioned by the previous reviewer. This is a potent and affordable Vitamin C serum that is easy to incorporate into your skincare regime.

   It comes in a tinted glass bottle with a built-in dropper. The texture of the serum is runny, water-like consistency and finishes off with a slightly sticky feeling. It does not burn nor does it cause the skin to feel tight at all. One thing about all active skincare products is that you have to finish it quickly upon opening- ideally within 3 months.

   I apply this for 2 consecutive days before moisturiser and you can see the noticeable brightening (eg; glow) effects.

   I highly recommend this product!

   I have been using this product for the past few and it has quickly become my Holy Grail skincare product. Recently I have been struggling with the aftermath of a hormonal breakout that left some dark marks behind. On top of that my work schedule has been taking a toll on my skin and my skin looked dull tired and uneven. So I started researching Vitamin C serums and came across the By Wishtrend Pure Vitamin C 21.5% Advanced Serum. I was torn between the Paula’s Choice C15 Super Booster, which only contains 15% Vitamin and costs $49! The Wishtrend serum costs $29 has a 21.5% Vitamin C content. So in the end I went for the cheaper, but more potent option since I heard so many amazing things about it.

   I use this Vitamin C serum 1-2 times a week and it makes such a huge difference. The morning after using this product my skin looks absolutely amazing. It’s visibly more radiant, even and my hyperpigmentation has faded a lot. I have even received compliments from friends and family members, so they could see the difference as well.

   This Vitamin C serum has a very light consistency (almost like water) and absorbs very quickly without leaving any residue behind. One thing to bear in mind is that it is important to store this serum in the fridge to keep it fresh for longer.

   I can highly recommend this product and I will definitely get more. It’s affordable and gives amazing results!
