Timeless Skin Care Vitamin C Serum with Vitamin E & Ferulic Acid - Brightening Serum - for Oily & Dry Skin - Fragrance-Free - 1 oz

I can barely believe how well this stuff works! It’s every bit as good as much more expensive serums I’ve tried- dark spots & capillaries faded inside of 2 weeks, and my skin is much plumper & more resilient when I consistently use it. I also like that it visibly oxidizes- you can tell when it’s become less effective, and manage accordingly. My skin looks better in several ways, and it feels silky going on. The scent is fine- all serums with these ingredients have an odd similar scent. I appreciate that it isn’t full of preservatives, colorants, & perfumes, too!

I rarely write reviews and it’s even more rare that I find a skincare product that I absolutely love but here we are. This product is amazing. It immediately brightens and smooths and overall has improved my skin. For the price you can’t beat it. It isn’t drying at all. Has a slight scent but I think that’s part of the deal with vitamin C.

Use sunscreen and re-apply during the day when using this Vit C or any vitamin C and or retinols to prevent your efforts going to waste. I've been using this 20% or 10% version of Timeless vitamin C off and on for 5-6 years now. Off and on is because I kept trying different manufacturers and formulations but time and time again keep coming back to this one. The smell is not the best and smells like, well, ascorbic acid. It's a very high quality and high potency vitamin C no-nonsense results oriented formulation. If you are new to ascorbic/l-ascorbic acid, start off with a 10% one and don't use it every day. After your skin tolerates that one, slowly move to this one. After about 2 weeks you'll see the results: brighter skin, even skin tone, better moisture absorption and glow from within. It's quality and results are the same if not better to more expensive serums!This one is fantastic and makes my skin look amazing. After consistent use, my skin looks so good that I can skip foundation 90% of the time.My trick is to buy a smaller bottle to help keep it fresh and potent. And make sure to wear sunscreen (my favorite affordable options are #1 Black Girl Sunscreen Kids, #2 Banana Boat Protecttion+Vitamins; mid-range: DRMTLGY Matte Universal Timted Moisturizer SPF 46, Missha and every other Korean and Japanese sunscreens SPF50 PA++++)

This is a light weight serum that goes on well under my Estee Lauder Double Wear liquid foundation. If I don't want to wear liquid foundation, it also acts as a great base for my Bare Minerals Compact Face Powder, which needs something to cling to on my face. The only thing is that if you do wear it under makeup, it does take a minute or so to dry before you can apply your makeup. It goes on liquidy, but not watery. It's a good texture, and not oily or greasy, which I prefer since I have combination skin. It also doesn't seem to lift off or pill off either of the makeup I use. I took off one star though since I'm not really sure it's really lightening any sun spots on my cheeks, but in my opinion, it's a great makeup base, and I would purchase it again.

I bought this serum because it has a very similar formula to skinceuticals ce ferulic. I was able to use a sample size bottle of skinceuticals for about a month and fell in love but couldn’t justify the price to repurchase without looking for an alternative. & I believe i found it!The main differences between the two is that Timeless is a higher concentration of l-ascorbic acid (20% vs 15%), timeless contains different humectants (HA + panthenol vs glycerin), and skinceuticals has a patented stability method. I do prefer glycerin to HA and panthenol but it’s a slight preference. The higher concentration was a bit harsher and I had to build up to daily use of timeless because it irritated my skin a little at first. Timeless does make a 10% version if you’re worried about this. The stability of Timeless was even better than skinceuticals in my opinion because of the pump bottle. I have not experienced any oxidation with Timeless.Overall, Timeless is a bit runnier than skinceuticals, but otherwise smells similar (hot dog water tbh) and makes my skin look just as dewy and radiant as skinceuticals did. The smell is quickly masked by moisturizer and SPF so I don’t mind it at all. I think it’s an incredible vitamin c serum and if vitamin c is one of your holy grail ingredients like it is mine, I highly recommend you give this one a shot.

Just switched to this from another product that is no longer on Amazon. Same ingredients, same feel, same smell. It feels nice going on and absorbs well. But. The packaging though. Why would you put a pump on this? The formula is like water so when you pump it, it shoots out everywhere. I apparently got some on my wall and didn’t realize until it oxidized and stained my newly painted walls brown. Took me forever to figure out what it was! If it had a dropper, I’d give it 5 stars.
