PERFECT FOR: Illuminating dull, spotty, aging skin
REVIEWS:
October 9, 2017
”I actually was really surprised by its moisturizing effects. I bought it mainly for brightening and scar fading, so didn’t expect too much about the texture or whether it hydrates my skin or not. I was just going to use it as a serum. I’m currently using Retin-A at night so my used-to-be combination skin becomes dry skin overall. The first time I used it in the morning, I apply toner, Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3%, then this MAP. I thought I need to lay one more layer of moisturizer, but no, my skin already felt so moist and plump. I can just put on some sunscreen and head out. I’m pleasantly surprised. This becomes my daily morning routine. Btw, it also goes well with makeup, whether it be BB cream or foundation.”

Not greasy!
This product is amazing!!!! With the use of it my skin became softer and more luminous and help a lot with my dullness. I love the ordinary’s proposal, simple formulas with affordable prices. This is the only moisturizer and really the only line of skin I have found to work as it is supposed to and not cause break outs. I love it so much. It is light, comfortable and not greasy at all.

Love it!
I so love this! This is the only vitamin c that never irritates my sensitive skin. And it’s so moisturizing, I don’t have to use a separate moisturizer. I used to have a combination skin, but after months of using it I think i have now a normal skin 😍 Definitely going to repurchase!

COMEDOGENIC
Girls with sensitive and acne prone skin, avoid this! I know that Liah Yoo recommended this but do not believe her because this has coconut alkanes and is known to be comedogenic which means that it is pore clogging. This is a more stable vitamin c derivative but instead of brightening your pimple scars, this will give you new pimples that you will need to erase.

great moisturizing
this is a great moisturizing hydrating skincare item. I really love that I feel like I am using a skincare item that benefits and improves my skin and is affordable. It applies nicely and absorbs quickly. I feel like it is comparable with any primer and I have not found it to pill under makeup which can happen with some products.

👌
It is a derivative of vitamin C the most stable and does not irritate your skin, it is quite moisturizing leaves my skin very soft and seen improvements has a slightly strange smell that for those who are sensitive to odors I do not think they like it, but it is very good I recommend product

not for me
I had high hopes about this one after seeing it in a few youtube videos. It is supposed to be a lighter version of a vitamin c product so it should promote brightening. However, it didnt give any kind of good effect on my skin even after finishing it. It actually gave me a few small red bumps on my skin whenever i used it. The smell is very distracting and felt too "chemical-ee". It must be psychological, so i felt like my skin couldnt breathe whenever I used it. I am a fan of the 'the ordinary' product line.. but not this one. TT
