Radiance+ 15% Vitamin C Serum – No7 | Ulta Beauty

Effective, gentle, fast absorbing vitamin c serum

🍊 It’s almost Friday everyone 🙌🏽 Who is looking forward to the weekend? I know I am. While we’re waiting for Friday to arrive, let’s talk about @no7 Radiance 15% vitamin C serum I’ve been testing from Buzzagent
.
🍊 Details: Gel texture serum formulated with 15% vitamin C to provide brighter, dewier, fresher, even toned & textured skin. Designed to fade dark spots & discolorations, even skin tone, & add radiance & rejuvenation to dull, uneven, tired, skin. This is created to be gentle yet effective & can be used for all skin types.
.
🍊My experience: I have oily/combo, acne prone sensitive skin with some hyperpigmentation from healed acne. This is a thick clear gel serum with a light, pleasant orange scent. Applies easily & taps into skin. Serum can appear sticky but it quickly fades away as your skin absorbs it. Layers well with some moisturizers & other times can cause it to pill up. Need to continue to use it to see which ones layer well & which do not. No adverse reactions or irritation experienced. I’ve noticed brightening & some fading of my hyperpigmentation.
.
🍊 Overall: I will continue to use this to see how continued use affects my hyperpigmentation. I give this a 4.0/5.9 with 1 point deducted because of the pilling of certain moisturizers. I do love that it’s effective for starting to fade my hyperpigmentation, doesn’t irritate my skin & absorbs quickly.

Nice Vitamin C serum but needs some updates!

I was really excited to try an affordable Vitamin C serum. I had used one in the past that was great but it was pricey and not in my regular budget.
I really like the dropper and it was easy to apply to my face. The bottle is nice as well.
I decided to use it at night, since I don’t like to layer a lot of products under my day makeup.
I am glad I made this decision because this serum is incredibly sticky. I had to wait over 15 mins for it to dry down and be a little less tacky. This may be hard for people that do want to use it under makeup!
Once it dried down, it felt nice on my skin and my skin looked immediately nice and glowy. It did not bother my sensitive skin, which I am always worried about. Starting new products, I tend to have tiny break outs now and then but my skin didnt break out with this.
One of the biggest negatives for me was ….BE CAREFUL getting it near your mouth!!! I try to avoid the mouth area anyway, but I accidentally got a teeeeeny amount on the corner of my lip. It tasted so horrible and the taste didnt go away for over an hour! I had to be so meticulous while applying so….just be warned!

overall, it is a decent Vitamin C serum for the cost/price range. It is a good budget friendly option, and I think it could work for a lot of people who don’t mind that tacky-ness!
My skin looked smoother and glowy after using it for nearly a month straight. I will continue to use it through the end of the bottle but I am unsure if I will repurchase.

Yes, I would!!

truth be told i ve only used this for a week soi cant comment on the brightening aspect. The consistency is sticky which i thought would be good for a base for makeup but ive come to realize that this is the culprit to my newly pilling make up. On more than one occasion ive pilled which is frustrating. I can use this at night but that not the time frame i wanted it for. The citrus smell will keep you using it because it makes you think its really handling business, maybe it is but the pilling is a no for me.

This really works

I’ve used many other serums including ones with vitamin c but this has 15% and you can tell as skin is noticeably brighter after even one use. Doesn’t irritate my skin, which is pretty sensitive. Lower priced and just as effective as some much higher priced products. Highly recommend
