Early verdict · Few reviews so farWhat the gurus are saying
The serum contains L-ascorbic acid and vitamin E, which gurus confirm does brighten skin, but experts split on whether the formula is safe for regular use. One dermatologist cautions that the brightening may come mainly from exfoliating acids rather than the vitamin C itself, and flags the added fragrance as a concern when paired with actives, warning that daily use could compromise the skin barrier and trigger contact dermatitis. Another notes the biphasic formula spreads easily and stabilises well, though also wishes it were fragrance-free and notes it may irritate sensitive skin.
