What the gurus are saying

The vitamin C concentration here falls short of the hype. At around five percent, it's a standard dose, not the high-strength formula the branding suggests, and dermatologists warn it may actually accelerate skin aging rather than improve it. Nip + Fab tends to use bold language like 'extreme' to oversell products that deliver ordinary concentrations, so reset your expectations with this brand before trying them.

"The only positive with this product is that it's an airless pump. The second ingredient in here is denatured alcohol. [...] Plus fragrance, which of course is a fraction of a percent of your glucoside. So it's not even in therapeutic index. And like the only good thing about this maybe is the 20 dollar price point, but honestly it's just going to prematurely age your skin. Not really worth your time or money."

"They use words like 'extreme' in their language in order to hype up the products, and you look at the concentrations and it's like a five percent vitamin C. [...] It's not concentrated. I think often they over promise and under deliver. My guide to Nip + Fab would be: their extreme products are actually just standard concentrations, and their non-extreme ones are actually quite low concentrations, so reset your mind with this brand if you are thinking of trying them."
