What the gurus are saying

This serum's gentleness stands out, particularly for those who find standard L-ascorbic acid vitamin C products irritating or stinging on sensitive skin. The formula delivers firming and lifting benefits alongside hydration from hyaluronic acid and barrier-supporting ectoin, with gurus noting it feels nourishing and causes no irritation even on eczema-prone skin. Consistency over three to six months is key to seeing the firming results, and at $28, experts found the price exceptional for a well-formulated vitamin C serum of this quality.

"Day to day I use the Remedy Vitamin C, which is one of my favorites. Vitamin C is also a really great ingredient for firming and lifting the skin. You have to be consistent with it, as you should be with all of your skincare. And I would expect for most people if you started this routine now, the firming and lifting results will probably come at the 3 to 6 month point. So be consistent and definitely invest for the long term."

"Remedy came out with a new Vitamin C Serum that has the derivative free ascorbic acid. They gave me the lab sample and I went through it like crazy and I'm still using it and I bought another one. So, this is definitely a favorite for those of you who cannot tolerate ascorbic acid. This is a great choice. Remedy stacks their formulas with such amazing ingredients and it also has DNA repair enzymes in the form of phytoplankton which I think is so interesting. If you buy one of their skincare products, you're getting multiple amazing ingredients."

"This is the one by Remedy. Very gentle. Great for winter. It's made with 30 zero ethylated ascorbic acid. So, super gentle. It's a vitamin C derivative."

"I really find this one exceptionally moisturizing actually as well has hyaluronic acid in it. Ectoin actually I love ectoin and skin care products that help support the skin barrier and I find it nourishing and hydrating on the skin. So I just love that texture so much. It's $28. That's an incredible price for a Vitamin C Serum that is more in line with the price that you will find on L-ascorbic acid types of vitamin C serums. Both of these vitamin C serums get a thumbs up from me in terms of formulation and feel on the skin such that they are not irritating and they don't sting. That is one of my biggest complaints with L-ascorbic acid vitamin C serums is I get that stinging sensation on my skin very frequently with that type of product. Both of these very nice on the skin on sensitive skin. No stinging. This is closer to the L-ascorbic form. This is potentially a little bit more gentle and like I said this did get the eczema seal of approval. So if you have very very sensitive skin, you can't tolerate L-ascorbic acid forms of Vitamin C Serum, maybe it would be worth it to you to start here."
