The INKEY List 30% Vitamin C Serum to Help Brighten Skin Suitable for Most Skin Types 30ml

Value for money. Gave skin a soft dewy and radiant look and feel. Only drawback for me is that it stung but in saying that I have very sensitive skin. Definitely on the repeat.

I would say this is high quality vitamin C, I wanted something that wasn’t a liquid serum that has high percentage of l-absorbic acid without water so it’s stable. This product tickets those boxes and is good value.It’s difficult to get the amount to apply right, the first time I used not enough and then too much which made my hands go slightly orange and smell like fake tan (although washed off instantly with a shower).I found mixing it with hyaluronic acid to spread easier made it pill on my skin so I’m sticking with using it on its own and trying to master getting the amount right, so it also doesn’t mean I go through the tube quickly.It is slightly gritty but no where near as bad as a similar product I have tried but once it’s sunk into the skin, my skin feels very soft and still soft in the morning (I use at night as doesn’t go on alternate nights to retinal as it doesn’t sit well under my makeup as it pills). I do however use a moisturiser after and because it’s at night I’m not so bothered by the pilling.So far it’s too early to tell if it’s made a difference to my overall skin appearance, but first impressions are good so I will stick with it and hope to see results.

This is a very high percentage vitamin c at 30% so it tingles your face after using it. The consistency is very pasty and dry, making it very difficult to spread over my face so I had to mix it with my serum or moisturiser to apply it properly. The size is very small so it does not last long, I finished it in less than 1 month from using it once a day. I didn't notice any significant changes to my skin, but you'd have to use it for a long time probably. The dry consistency puts me off this, not great for dry skin.

One of the best products. Smooth and light on your face

I should have paid more attention to the ingredients - the primary one is dimethicone, a kind of silicone. This makes my face feel slimy, causes my makeup to sit in my lines/creases and seems to dominate against all the other products I put on in the morning. I also find the percentage of ascorbic acid in this highly irritating. All in all, this is a product fail for me. I would not repurchase and I would not recommend. There are much better vitamin c products out there. This might be cheap, but it's the dimethicone that makes it so and which also ultimately ruins the product.

I purchased this product after hearing Nadine Baggot (Beauty Editor) rave about this range of products. I’m in my early 50’s and wanted to add some extras into my skincare routine so decided to give this a go. It’s a beautiful rich serum to apply, fragrance free and easily absorbed. It has an almost soft focus finish to it and works beautifully on its own or under makeup. The price is fantastic and even though it’s only 30mls which may seem small to some, you do only use a pea sized amount, so would last a while in my opinion. It’s my first time using this brand and a vitamin c serum and I’m not disappointed at all. Great value for money and leaves my skin feeling so soft. Would definitely recommend 5*****

What IS this texture? I was expecting a serum and instead got a thick, almost gritty cream more like a paste. It dries out extremely quickly, leaving a white caste and almost chunks of the stuff on your hands and of course on your face too. The directions suggest mixing with a serum if it's too thick, which makes me think the manufacturers know it's a strange and unsuitable texture. On application it feels extremely mattifying, which is what has presumably led to more frequent breakouts. I have to give it an extra star for not being scented but that's it, I'd avoid.

Excellent product could be a bit stingy means that it works also very good as a base make up glides and hides the pores
