Careful with the tube, mine arrived split open.
Three stars only because it arrived split open on the end of the tube. A replacement is on the way and I’m excited to try this cream. I’ll try to update this review once I’ve had some time to use it.

    This vitamin C cream really does a great job. It does not irritate my skin nor make it dry, and I’ve noticed a very big difference in the brightness and color of my skin. It can hurt my eyes if I put too much on or too close to my eyes.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Thin and Gritty lotion, not cream
    Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2025
    Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
    Like many other reviews, I found this too gritty to apply on the skin. Also, I would not describe it as a "cream" It's more of a lotion which btw flows out of the tube pretty fast if you're not prepared. You don't even have to squeeze the tube. So "be" prepared otherwise you'll run out of it in no time. I would not buy this again:(

    Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
    Loveeeeee this item. It's a stronger formula so it does sting a bit when you first apply! If you're just starting vitamin c maybe try a weaker formula. Also, this is an exfoliant so it does feel a bit gritty, which is normal. It kind of comes out of the bottle quicker than I'd like, but that is a bottle design problem not the product itself. Will reorder for sure!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Ordinary offers the same cosmeceuticals as the big cosmetic brands - at WHAT THEY SHOULD COST!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2025
    Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase
    For those that say it has a greasy or gritty texture, I say its the best . It is a strong VIT C product for a great price. Thank you The Ordinary for bringing skinceuticals that are all actually inexpensive ingredients to us for these incredible prices. I use FIRST thing in morning, the do other things before makeup. I don't use a make up base, just eyes cheeks and lips, so if you do, just use it as your night serum, or pat excess off after it settles into skin. For the life of me I have no idea why women spend $100s on formulations with the same simple ingredients. My routine: The Ordinary Vit C in morning, The Ordinary Copper Peptide and Retin A at night. I don't understand why people fall for the high price. A dermatologist will give you a prescription for Retin A, then use Good RX for about $40 for a 4 month tube. My Retin and and The Ordinary give me the same results as those very overpriced cosmetic brands. So, if the Vit C formula is a little greasy, I can deal with that at this high potency AND low price. I am thrilled to have the product in my routine.

    Já usei alguns produtos da THE ORDINARY, mas até então somente a linha de cuidado dos frascos de vidro (com conta gotas) e gostei mto... mas essa linha nesse tipo de embalagem com uma proposta serum cremoso foi a minha primeira experiência. Não gostei e jamais usaria de novo. Textura estranha e muito oleosa, Além disso não vem na embalagem nem na caixa o lote e a validade... não sabemos nem se é original.
