What the gurus are saying

This serum gives a subtle glow without looking glittery or greasy, and some find their makeup wears better over it. However, the vitamin C form it uses (magnesium ascorbyl phosphate) is considered a weak choice by dermatologists; it's far less effective than stronger forms, so if you're hoping for serious brightening or anti-aging work from a vitamin C, this probably won't deliver.

"The glow is subtle enough to not be glittery or make you look oily but it gets the job done I even noticed my makeup lasts longer whenever I wear it"
~Nay
"Glossier's Super Glow Vitamin C contains magnesium ascorbyl phosphate as well as magnesium. It's one that you can incorporate into your routine if you're dying to have a vitamin C for the hell of it, sure why not, but it's probably the most useless form of vitamin C."
