The Guru Index verdict
Approved
✓Approved · 74%What the gurus are saying
The gurus praise this serum for being genuinely gentle (particularly for those whose skin has reacted badly to other vitamin C products) and for delivering a hydrating, dewy finish without irritation. The rice extract and alpha arbutin work together to brighten and even tone safely across all skin types, including oily complexions. However, those with stubborn or long-standing hyperpigmentation should know the formula is mild; it works best as a first step for tone evening rather than heavy-duty correction.
