I do both! I use the serum on my face as a moisturizer,feels great.Taking vitamin C is good for you.I'm hardly ever sick!

You do mean Vitamin C pills, not bills don't you? Pills are internal and serum is topical/external. I have taken C pills for years and have not seen any positive change in my face and for a year or so used the serum along with the pills and still didn't see any change, so quit using the serum. I take the pills for health reasons and stay healthy with few colds, etc. Maybe others have had positive results with the serum, but for me it is a waste of money.

Our Triple Action Vitamin C Serum contains 15% Vitamin C-- 5% of each of the three forms. Through extensive testing we found that concentrations higher than 15% caused excessive drying of the skin and no additional collagen building or anti-aging benefits. Our serum provides the most effective potency without irritating the skin. It took many months to develop and we're very proud of it!

your skin sounds too sensitive for the 20%, you need to look for a lower dosage and gradually work up to it, as this is a stand alone serum OR as others have said, mix some with your usual moisturizer. I use the serum first, and then when totally dry I put another cream over top as my skin is drier, vit C serum is the best thing you can do for your skin so def try the lower dosages from someone else first, though I prefer Dr Songs and will stick to it :)

HIHere's the important things you need to know about this product: Hyaluronic Acid Serum For Skin -Best Anti Wrinkle Serum With Vitamin C + Vitamin E > According to the label (zoom in a bit on your browser if you can't see it clearly) this serum has Vit C and E in it already. If you want to use Vit C separately, I would suggest using it at the opposite time of the day. But since it's combined already, they have the perfect proportions of the 3 ingredients together. Also if you are using HA and Vit C separately: the Vit C should go on first because it is the thinner of the two serums, then the HA. Why ? Because the Vit C can't penetrate a layer of HA serum unless it's the same ph.

I think the quality of this ascorbic acid/vitamin C powder is very good. High quality. Good purity. I haven't seen comparable vitamin c for cheaper. So I thought think this is very fairly priced. Only a very tiny amount is needed as you will see when you read the directions for mixing. Good luck with you serums.

I could not attribute reduction of wrinkles to this product alone. I use vitamin c w/ collagen and I did experience a significant reduction/elimination of fine lines ( I never had wrinkles), darkness under the eyes; a significant increase in firmness of face , neck and body

Hi Lisa, sorry for the late response - just realized I got this - I've used various Vit C serums including making my own and this is by far the best I've used. It's strong but not too drying and I have been able to keep the wrinkles at bay and reduce some and it gives me a nice all over glow which makes the wrinkles look better anyway. I ran out of my 20% & now have tried the CSS vit c+e (15% C) & hydra gel & also very good products. I'm 50

I use vitamin C as a preventative, discouraging sagging and fine lines, so far I like and will buy again.

OZ Natural Vitamin C 20% anti aging serum 1 oz. (@ $18 Amazon). Then an hour later Aveeno intense moisturizer (blue lid). *the first 2-4 times it will sting/burn so you may like the feel of a cool wet wash Clotho. Your face prior to the Vitamin C

I have been using the serum for about a month. I do see a difference in the texture of my skin. I am 59 years old, and have been diligent with keeping my skin healthy, including trying to reduce lines and wrinkles. I use the serum with a collagen crme, sunblock, retin A and hydroquinone (not necessarily all at the same time). I cannot say for certain that the serum is the sole reason for my healthy skin, but it is a contributing factor. I bought this serum since it was a 20% Vit C and it was the best price. Some folks have complained of the smell, but I don't notice any bad odor from the serum. I hope this helps.

Ann~ Thank you for posting this. I wanted to answer this personally because I can speak from experience. I am a long term user of C E Ferulic from Skinceuticals. It really set the standard for vitamin C serums. While Skinceuticals has a great line, I founded srumtologi to offer products that offered comparable luxury and clinically proven ingredients but without the often shockingly high price tag. Our C serum 22 has 47% more vitamin c and is in a form that does not cause skin irritation. It also has twice as much ferulic acid and is 1/5th the price. I would be honored if you would give our product a try. Vanessa Powers, Co-founder-srumtologi

I would probably not use both of them together. Perhaps try the Vitamin C/E Serum for one month and see if you notice a difference. I am on my third bottle so am going on three months and I definitely see a huge improvement, skin is softer, firmer, evened out color...it's really an amazing product and like how it is made fresh for the customer. Just another suggestion...I have recently found Tarte skin care to be wonderful as well...especially the Maracuja Oil.....very high in vitamin C.....I apply it after washing my face in the evening before going to bed....it's worth trying....great company as well as Timeless Skincare...love both of them...have a beautiful day....:) I would probably not use both of them together.

Sorry, I cannot compare. This was my first purchase of retinol serum; it is a serum. But it took only two weeks to cause a couple of skin tags to fall off. Also, removed some sebaceous growths on my cheek.

Vitamin C as well as HA both works great for fine lines. So you can use buy HA with Vit C in it.

I don't know about replacements though you may try their website. But if you want to save yourself some money, any gel product will do. I use the Aloe Vera gel I purchased at Wal-Mart for $3.00 (16 oz) and it works just fine. As far as serums, I use my own Vitamin C serum (or any other serum I choose to use any particular day) which I purchase online; various outlets including Amazon.com. Look for the higher percentage of vitamin C concentration; I've seen as high as 30% to 35% available online.
