Quick Take: brightening, preventative, skin nourishing
Recently searching for a product to brighten my complexion and help keep my skin healthy. Was looking at products that contained Vitamin C but a number of the products did not sound appealing. I cam across this product on the Sephora website and decided to give it a try. Within a week I was able to notice differences in my complexion. The nice added bonus is since this is a powder you can add it to any product you use! Just be sure to blend it in your palm prior to applying it. Overall, I am very happy with the product and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to increase Vitamin C in their daily beauty routine.

I'm stunned how well this works
-05.13.13
Quick Take: brightening
I've purchased my fair share of bottles and jars that promise to reduce redness and brighten my complexion. I've been a faithful user of Ole Henricksen's Truth Serum, but I never liked that it was packaged in a clear bottle. When I saw this, which seemed like a very concentrated form of vitamin C in proper dark glass packaging, I gave it a try. I was amazed how much brighter my face looked after a few days, and now that I'm 2 weeks into using every morning, I'm completely hooked. I hardly need any foundation on my cheeks, where I had pinkish blotches forever. Even my small sun spot on my cheek is slowly disappearing. I simply mix 1/2 to 3/4 scoop (scooper is included) with my either my Ren moisturizer or Josie Maran argan oil. The vitamin C blends into the oil or lotion instantly. I apply it to my face and then top it off with sunscreen. I did experience a minor tingle the first few days, but that's since gone away. My skin is so clear and very soft. I've ordered a second bottle just so I can make sure that I'm never without this. It's truly as good as the reviews claim.

Does What It Should
-05.09.13
I have been using this for several years... A little spoonful in my moisturizer daily. It keeps my skin clear and even toned. I am starting to get a few age spots and this really keeps them light and unnoticeable. Minimizes pores also. Overall, the best vitamin C product I have used.

Quick Take: exfoliating
It's so fun to mix the powder with my moisturizer, and I only use this at night before I go to sleep. Since the sun will cause redness on my skin after applying this with my day cream. Only a week, my skin become more brighter.

I was dull but now am found
-04.17.13
I was skeptical of Vitamin C products at first, but I was desperate enough to try these products. I've tried lots of other products intended to lead to radiant, glowy skin, such as arbutin, various acids, licorice extract. These worked very slowly, and made me slightly paler, which I don't want. I am really surprised that this worked so well, and scarily fast. For those with sensitive skin, try not to use too much. Apparently a heaping little scoopful was too much for me, and it kind of dryed out my skin (I have oily skin). But I am really happy with this product. Price is not so bad.

Rock star ingredient!!!
-03.27.13
Ever since I started using this two weeks ago, my skin gets just better and better every day! My complexion is so much brighter, smoother and just alive! I don't know how else to describe it but the quality of the vitamin C in this little bottle is better than any other serum or creme you can purchase. it is effective and you don't have worry about oxidizing. My thinking is that why buy expensive products that contain vitamin C when you can go to the source and buy the actual ingredient and use it as much (or as little) as you want without the worry of it going bad. I just love how my skin is transformed!!!!

Your Skin Will Thank You
-03.05.13
Quick Take: invigorating, brightening
I first heard about this product from one of my favorite YouTube Beauty Gurus'. She raved about it so it seemed worth a shot. I was using another Vitamin C serum that seemed to be burning my skin and I was looking for a gentler alternative. This booster is now my best friend. Within minutes of mixing it with my favorite moisturizer my skin seemed to come alive. It just seems to add a radiance and resilience to your skin. I have very sensitive skin and most things will break me out. I have not experienced any irritation, burning, redness, or breakouts from using this product. It seems to make everything I add to my face better. It really is a buster. As an added side effect when added to my primer I find that my makeup actually stays on all day. This is a huge plus as I have VERY oily skin and of the hundreds of products I have tried not one of them has been able to achieve this.
The only downside is that sometime I find it will make my glycolic serum peel to much. I do not suggest using glycol and the powder at the same time. Be mindful that you only need a "tiny" bit per usage of this product. Using to much at once may cause irritation as this is a concentrated formula.

I ALWAYS WONDERED WHAT THE BIG HOO HA WAS
-02.21.13
NOW I KNOW. I am 54 yrs. old and do lots of research on the web. When I finallly decided to get this product, couldnt get it. It was sold out in the areas I would purchase. That says something. I have been watching this on line, so decided to give it a whirl. I use it in the morning with my SPF moisturizer. I do notice a slight glow to my face. I understand why Philosophy has a winner on their hands with this product. Try it.

Brightening and Plumping
-02.19.13
I love this. It makes my skin look brighter, plumper (read younger), and almost luminescent. I have some acne scars that seem to have fillled in completely. Don't see any lessening of freckles yet.

Amazing Results!!
-02.19.13
I am absolutely in love with this product! I mix it into my standard moisturizer every morning, and I saw results within 3 days! I was shocked, as I really never expect a product to work so fast, or at all, sometimes! This C Powder has brightened my complexion and has left me almost glowing, but in such a natural and youthful way. I have already purchased one for my mom and sister and plan to stock up for myself, b/c this is one product that I do NOT want to run out of. Absolutely LOVE it!

Excellent!
-02.13.13
I worked as an aesthetician in a medical spa where we retailed a similiar product for 2x the price of this one. This product is cost effective and works beautifully! It brightens skin and helps with breakouts also. When applied to the skin in the a.m. it will help protect against UV related skin damage by neutralizing free radicals. This is a must have for everyone!
