Vanicream Vitamin C Serum, Milky and Lightweight, Boosts Glow, 1.2 Fl Oz

As a 57-year-old African American woman who treats anti-aging skincare very seriously, finding a potent Vitamin C serum that doesn't cause irritation is a constant battle. Many high-concentration serums sting, redden, or cause a reaction on my sensitive skin barrier. That is why I was incredibly eager to test this Vanicream Vitamin C Serum. I am thrilled to report that it completely lives up to its gentle reputation while delivering real results. ​Here is why this serum is a total win for sensitive, mature skin: ​Exceptional Barrier Support: While some Vitamin C products are too harsh, this formulation is infused with ceramides. It delivers critical antioxidants to brighten and even out complexion while simultaneously supporting and strengthening the skin barrier. ​Truly Irritant-Free: Looking at the packaging in image, you can see it is a 'Non-Comedogenic' and 'Gluten-Free' product. It is also completely free of dyes, fragrance, masking fragrance, lanolin, parabens, and formaldehyde releasers. This is the cleanest formula I've found, providing powerful anti-aging support with zero risk of a reaction. ​Luxurious, Comfortable Wear: The texture is light and silky, gliding on seamlessly. It plays perfectly with other skincare, fitting beautifully right under my daily moisturizer and sunscreen without any pilling or stickiness. ​Bottom Line: Vanicream has created a phenomenal product that allows my sensitive, mature skin to access the transformative power of Vitamin C without compromise. It is gentle, barrier-focused, and incredibly comfortable for daily use.

I’ve been using this serum for about a week and so far I’m really enjoying it. It feels lightweight on my skin, isn’t greasy, and layers nicely with the other products in my skincare routine. I also have not experienced any irritation. I’ve noticed a slight improvement in the appearance of the lines on my forehead, although I’m using this serum along with two other skincare products, so I can’t say that the improvement is from this product alone. It’s still early, but based on how my skin has responded so far, I’m very happy with it and plan to continue using it.

This is a great Vitamin C serum. I’m really happy with both the ingredient list and the results. It gives a subtle brightening effect and helps even out my skin texture. It doesn’t irritate my skin at all, and it has no strong or unpleasant scent, which I really appreciate since I can’t stand heavily fragranced face products. It applies nicely, absorbs well, and doesn’t leave my skin looking overly shiny like many others do. Great value for the price, and I will definitely repurchase.

Great product! Absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a greasy or tacky feeling on skin. I have an allergy to fragrance so finding products that are fragrance feee can be a pain sometimes. Vanicream vitamin see goes one step beyond just fragrance free and doesn’t use any masking fragrance either. This is perfect for those with sensitive skin. It last a long time too, a little goes a long way so no need to use copious amounts. This is my second tube and I’ll be purchasing my 3rd soon! As far as my skin appearance goes, my complexion is much brighter and appears more even toned.

I've been using this vitamin C serum for a week. and really like its creamy, light formula and the effects on my skin -- it looks brighter and smoother after application and throughout the day. I have noticed some light redness and a couple breakouts, but my skin is prone to sensitivity and that is not uncommon. If I ever find a product that doesn't have either of those effects, it will become my holy grail. My reason for the four-star rating is not due to the serum but the pump dispenser which requires shaking the tube multiple times and several pumps before product is dispensed (just give me the product already!). My vote is still out on the price.

The best Votamin C serum on the market. Great for budget and skin sensitivity. Hydrates my skin and leaves a glassy skin finish, I have seen such a difference since starting to use this over 3 years ago and I will never stop. Does not cause irritation or ruin my makeup (as an everyday makeup wearer). Definitely have seen faded dark spots and protects me from sun and gaining sun spots.

I’ve tried a lot of drugstore Vitamin C cream facial products, and was looking for a new one to try since nothing I’d tried been “wow.” Then I heard via chatting with various friends across the country that Vanicream C Serum was the one affordable cream that gave the most bang for the buck. I’ve been using it almost every day for about 6 weeks now and I love it! The formula has a fresh, creamy texture that absorbs quickly. There’s no weird or heavy scent, which is a plus since I’ve got mast cell activation syndrome and have lots of sensitivities. My face feels hydrated and dewy, and my blotchy, uneven skin looks like it’s evening out. I noticed it stat about 2 weeks in. Then my husband said I looked “perky” which meant my face had a glow to it that wasn’t there before. For reference, I’m in my mid fifties and have pale, normal skin that turns blotchy and dry over the winter months. This Vit C serum is a keeper. It also lasts longer than my jars of C cream in the past

Excellent vitamin C serum for sensitive skin. This is the first vitamin C product that I’ve been able to use on a repeated basis where it did not inflame or irritate my skin. I’m very pleased that after a few weeks of using this product, my face feels a little softer. My only request for improvement would be to make this a larger container as I’m already getting low. Great product for light to medium hydration. I use it at night, typically I like to apply a rich emollient cream over it yet even when I do not and I forget, the next morning my skin still feels good and not overly dry.

Really lovely thin moisturiser seems well. Sorry I'm not that good at reviewing items I've got. Nice bottle design. Seems to not cause spots so far. So good. I have bought more expensive Vit C before. But this seems fine. Sorry I'm not sure yet so I'm taking some time to decide if it's best for me. I think it will last awhile. Supposed to be very good for skin health. I hope it's not pro aging. As I think self care and beauty care is important for self esteem, beautiful self therapy and friend therapy or family if you have that in your life. I struggle with friendships unfortunately and boyfriend problems. But I'm enjoying the experience of exploring makeup etc that I haven't done for a significant period of my life as I wasn't that open minded I guess and now I want to try now things to distract my mind and self soothe.

The best Vitamin C serum for me

La uso non da così tanto, ma la mia pelle sensibile con rosacea pare tollerarla bene. Non unge troppo

I've never used a skin cream before as my diet is great. I don't eat junk food or anything like that and use non-nano zinc sunscreen. However I started to get some dryness under the eyes. I researched many products using EWG and other sites making sure the ingredients were very safe. This cream had one of the best profile along with Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin. I bought both and the Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin didn't feel as nice on my skin. I was using both creams at the same time but on separate sides of my face to test them out. Both products completely got rid of the dryness. The vitamin C effects lasted longer when I stopped using both. I stopped because I thought it was fixed but it came back. I'm now only using the vitamin C one and I'll have to keep using it or find out what's causing the dryness. The vitamin C also smelled better.
