Great serum with room for improvement
After receiving this product free through Influenster in exchange for my honest opinion, I decided not to post a review until I gave it a real trial. For skincare like serums, that means at least 30 days. I’ve been using this Obagi Professional-C Serum 20% for 45 days. Here are my findings: At first glance I was disappointed. A serum this expensive (retail $133) should come in an airless pump to preserve the vitamin C’s potency. A dark glass bottle is rather pedestrian packaging for a premium serum often sold in dermatologists’ offices. I had better luck with application. The serum has enough viscosity to keep it from running off my hands before I could get it on my face. I have reactive skin so I did get some redness upon application, but no burning sensation, and the redness dissipated quickly. There is a fragrance but I didn’t find it overwhelming or unpleasant. After including the serum in my morning skincare routine for 45 days I can report a positive chance in my skin’s texture and luminosity. Fine lines on my forehead are less visible and pores around my nose appear smaller. Unfortunately, I did not see any fading of my hyperpigmentation. This was my biggest disappointment in the serum. Bottom line: I’ve had similar results from less expensive serums, but I can definitely attest to this serum’s effectiveness.

Honestly it wasn't my favorite
I used this for a month and didn't notice much difference. It didn't agree with my skin. It didn't make anything worse but it didn't improve anything either I was given this complementary for my honest review

The holy grail of skincare
This is a 2 times daily MUST for healthy radiant skin. I notice immediately when I leave out of my regimen. Along with eye cream and SPF.... can't live without!!!

Loved it!
I am a super happy customer. I got this product as complementary to test and give my honest feedback and I am glad I tried it. I have combination skin, it gets completely absorbs in the skins. After 3-4 regular uses you will start seeing the difference, skin definitely looks healthy and smooth.

Professional C Serum 20%
Hi! Wow! Great product & high quality. I did receive this product free (complimentary) in exchange for my honest real review and opinion. I was very skeptical but I am very amazed. The serum has a light fragrance which is easy to enjoy. The texture is super moisturizing and not too greasy when applying on face. The product does what it claims by brightening my discoloration and my dark pigmented skin and does not dry it out. I have noticed with repeat use my skin feels hydrated and glowy and less pigmented and less red. It does have a light tingle sensation but it disappeared after my skin got adjusted to few days of treatments. I did have the combo & im I love. I highly recommend and I cannot wait to see amazing long life results. If you are skeptical please try you will enjoy. Im.goving 4 stars only due to price & I wish the dispenser would be made smaller so less product comes out.

Amazing product
I received this product complimentary for testing purposes. I was so darn excited to try this out! First, I was skeptical putting an oil on my face, I have very sensitive skin prone to breakouts. This blended right in with zero oily residue! My face feels clean and bright after using this and has reduced some of my fine lines by my eyes! I am definitely going to keep using and you have a new customer!

Great serum
I used to use another fancy skin care line for my C serum, but like this even better. And it’s less costly. Goes on smoothly, and I notice a difference.

Great vitamin c serum!
I received this product complimentary for testing, and will list my pros and cons Pros: - This is a great Vitamin C serum that leaves your skin hydrated and nice. It gives you the lit from within glow within 1-2 uses - This is lightweight and absorbs very quickly, making it easy to incorporate into your routine - I really liked how glowy my skin looked after 1 week Cons - If you have sensitive skin, note that this is very strong (not really a con, but you may have a reaction) - I don’t like fragrance in products, and didn’t see why it was needed here - While this is a really nice Vitamin C serum, I don’t know if it's $133 nice. If Vitamin C serums work well for you, I feel like you could find a nice serum for much less

Love it!
I received this complimentary from Influenster. This liquid serum provided a lot of hydration and radiance. The scent smells delicious and yummy, nothing to strong. I am definitely going to buy this product in the future.

Could be my new fav Vitamin C!
I received this product complimentary to review, and I absolutely love it! While my usual is in a lotion / serum format, this comes out more like a liquid or oil and absorption is so quick and thorough. Ready for the next step in my routine in no time! And over the course of the last 4 weeks of using it, the difference in brightness of my skin tone is so noticeable. Great scent also! I received this complementary for my review.

Enter Radiance
I received this complimentary from Influenster and man I need everyone to incorporate this into their skin care routine immediately. This liquid serum goes on almost as a matte feel but loads you up with nothing but hydration and radiance. The scent of fresh oranges is a plus, does not interfere with my other products, feels light and airy, while brightening my skin. I used for 3 weeks straight and I LOVE IT....

So refreshing
I’ve never really had issues with my skin, but it’s so much brighter since I’ve been using this serum. Love the scent, too! Nice & fruity. I received this complementary for my review.

Amazing Serum
I've been using the serum for about a month now, daily and only in the mornings after a cleansed skin. First I have to say you have to always test out professional grade products on a small area of your skin in case you might have a reaction to it that is unfavorable. My skin is not really sensitive but I had the sense to try that just in case and everything was fine other than slight tingling at first which later subsided and the serum started working. It should have a mellow yellow color when it is nice and fresh and at first use a little bit so your skin can build up tolerance to it and work the best. I use my fingertips to spread it on my face and neck and then sort of in a massage way blot it in and it absorbs fairly quickly into my skin and begins to work. My problem areas are dark circles, fine lines and uneven skin tone and texture which this serum improved tremendously. I feel like my skin is softer and much less dull and my dark circles have slowly started to fade and my skin tone is evening out and I feel like my fine lines are barely visible. I guess professional grade part is working and it’s definitely worth it. I am glad that I received this product complimentary for an honest review because now I can share my experience with you and make sure you also get similar and fantastic results using this product. Just make sure you pick the one that works for your skin. I will keep using this serum and will buy another bottle after since the results are what I was looking for.
