What the gurus are saying

The gurus who reviewed it praise this as one of the best budget vitamin C serums available, around thirty dollars, with a formula that matches pricier alternatives. Beyond the brightening trio of ascorbic acid, vitamin E, and ferulic acid, it includes grape seed extract, hyaluronic acid, and aloe that help soothe the skin and make it tolerable for many people with sensitivity. That said, because L-ascorbic acid can irritate, anyone prone to rosacea or very sensitive skin may want to patch-test first or consider easing in slowly.

"My indie pick is the May Love Glow Maker, which is about 33 bucks from May Love. This one's got the trifecta again, 15% ascorbic acid, ferulic acid, vitamin E. Then it also includes grape seed extract. It's fragrance-free and alcohol-free, and I think it's a holy grail for a lot of people. It's really nice and if you haven't tried it, certainly worth giving a whirl."

"This is one of my all-time favorite budget swaps. I get so much good feedback from you guys that it gives you the glowiest look on your skin, and many people can tolerate this even sensitive skin people because of the other additives in it that really soothe the skin. It contains hyaluronic acid, it contains aloe to soothe the skin, some other natural antioxidants. At the end of the day vitamin C serum in the active L-ascorbic acid form can be a little irritating on the skin, so if you are rosacea prone or super super super sensitive you might not be able to tolerate this, but it's a great budget pick that gets such great reviews from you guys."
