I was completetly reluctant to try LAA because of the stability issues. After trying almost all derivatives that are on the market and several products I decided while placing my last order at G&G to give it a chance. This is now my HG vitamin C product and I’m not going back to derivatives. Within 2 weeks I notices less PIH, less darkness in my melasma and just much brighter complexion. This is and astounishing product and can-t recommend it enough along with their A-Game, aPAd, and exfoliating acids.

I use the C glow as well. First a used a “vitamin C” serum from facetheory. It was sticky and oily (not ideal for a morning routine) and I think it’s was also a derivative. Then I heard about this one. The price is nice, the texture is watery this very easy to apply and it’s effective. For me also, the search is over. Afterwards, for an extra antioxidants boost, I use the survival 0 from Niod (which I highly recommend as well !)

So many vitamin C products. My wish list is just like: - Regimen Lab C.R.E.A.M. I have just heard people who have used both say it is better than triple lipid restore and (some) dermatologists rave about that Skinceuticals product. As a sceptic, I have opinions. Such as, lots of derms do get free products and samples from Skinceuticals and/or sell them in their clinic so may have a bias. Others may just like the texture and finish and often that is all you can tell from a product. I also know that some consider it overpriced CeraVe But this is €70 cheaper than Skinceuticals and in a pump bottle so I might actually try it eventually

Thanks for this review. I am currently using the L-Ascorbic Acid powder from the Ordinary. I know, it might get too strong when mixed with another serum, but I prefer the pure form of L-Ascorbic Acid to be in powder form to avoid any potential oxidation. I am also considering By Wishtrend Pure Vitamin-C 15% with Ferulic Acid. However, it contains water, so I am a bit skeptical.
@DoctorAnne

I am personally not fan of these powders - they might not oxidize, but you can never be sure which concentration you get and that they distribute evenly. If it was as easy as mixing powders in some serum, we wouldn't need cosmetic formulators. But I guess each has their pros and cons. The by Wishtrend one is nice, but did oxidize within 6-7 weeks for me, which is why I did not repurchase.

I have been using Mad Hippie and really enjoying it. Prior to that I was using the Inkey List and had quick and beautiful results with that, absolutely was amazed, but as I was using it I saw so many people speak about how 20% is unnecessary and can cause irritation. I did had irritation the first 3 or 4 days but after that none and I had results in the first few days that improved even more in the weeks to follow. When I ran out I decided to try something with a lower percentage as everyone was recommending. I only just switched in the past few weeks, I am not noticing visible results yet but it goes on and absorbs beautifully, looks great under makeup and has other skincare ingredients which is nice. Will update when I finish the bottle. I haven't tried anything from the brand you are recommending and have heard such wonderful things, I may try this next, I have also heard they have a wonderful moisturizing toner that I might like to add.

@DoctorAnne

I have not tried not keeping it in the fridge, so I can't answer that - I live directly under the roof, so my place is pretty warm and I try to avoid storing anything in my bathroom actually. The cooler it is stored, the less risk there is for oxidization.

I had no issues and my skin reacts to some Ascorbic Acid serums due to my prescription Tretinoin. But there is no way of being sure other than trying, as each skin is different. If you try this one first and it works though, you are saving yourself quite some money. If it doesn’t work, you haven't lost much.

Hello there :) This video have perfect timing since im about to order my vit C today :) Shop where i order have this serum in stock :D ! Now i know what to order :D I just wonder how you apply it ? Some say on dry face after cleansing , some say after toner . With my last serum i tested both variations and when I put it on dry face it was stinging , after toner was a lot better . But I wonder since ascorbic acid have low PH , putting it on toner will not neutralize its effectiveness by rising the ph ? I asked my esthetician and she said it doesnt matter since low PH must be in bottle where wit c is stored . After putting on face it needs to absorb fast and work so ph dont matter . I dont know what to think . She also said ph of skin after cleansing with water from faucet is like 7 so toner if lowering the ph anyway to like 5 so its helping .

I agree with your esthetician, it will most likely not matter, both should work fine. Just find out what works best for your individual skin. I usually use mine after toner, but also on dry skin if I skip toner.
