Drying & Irritating
I so wanted to get the benefits by adding the C+ to my regimen. I use and love the results of the DDG Ferulic + Retinol face and eye serums, DDG Triple Peptide Oil, and began using the C+ products during the day, the Retinol at night. Even though I used a good moisturizer or the DDG Triple Peptide Oil over the C+ Serum, after a couple of weeks, my facial skin was not doing well. Skin was drier and fine wrinkles more noticeable. I even experienced random blemishes. This was notable because I never have blemishes. So, my skin did not like this C+ formula. When I went back to using Ferulic+Retinol day and night, my skin got better.

Love this stuff!
Ive been using this with the C+Collagen Deep Cream and the Extra strength Alpha beta peel, and the eye cream since November and I LOVE it! I am only 27 but have had problems with acne, acne scars, oily skin and uneven skin tone for years. I finally solved the acne problem so I've been now working on my overall skin and aging. This stuff feels so good on my skin and makes a huge difference! I have less blackheads, the oil is controlled, skin tone looks great even without makeup, and it smells awesome too :) Would recommend it 10x over.

Quick results for an anti aging serum
I'm always looking for anti aging products that are effective without smelling harsh, chemical or like I've walked into a cologne factory. This serum softens and plumps skin and diminishes the appearance of my sun spots without leaving me smelling like a chemical processing plant. I always look brighter the morning after. I highly recommend it!

It has transformed my skin
I bought this after trying out so many vitamin c products on the market but this is so far one of the best. It has completely transformed my skin within days. My skin looks tighter, brighter and rested. Highly recommend this product to anyone looking to improve their skin tone and texture.

Awesomeness
I've never had people compliment my skin until I started using this. It gives me an even, more tan complexion. And it helps restore a little bit of that youthful glow that I've started missing since I got into my mid thirties. I'm addicted...it's a problem. But one of those healthy addictions so we're good. Thank you, Dr. Gross team!

It Works
This is a deceptively potent Vitamin C serum. You can feel it working, especially when combined with the daily peels. A pleasant tingling sensation ensues after applying. It actually makes my makeup look better. A light glow shines through. Tried many Vitamin C potions. Some are good. But this one sets the standard.

Best Vitamin C serum, not irritating
This is the best Vitamin C serum I've ever used. After 1 week of applying it on my face everyday, a few brown spots have faded and my complexion is even. It does not irritate my skin unlike other Vitamin C serums I've used in the past. The small dark glass pump bottle protects the ingredients from light and air. And it's perfect for travel.

Very disappointed - flaking mess
I was so excited to receive my order, looking forward to active products as I have enjoyed the fabulous DDG peel for years. Unfortunately, in my opinion, this serum should not have been released as it is. It leaves behind a flaking mess which you must continuously wipe off throughout the day. It is worse when you try to put on makeup over it, so I went to using at night. I would rather use my vitamin C serum in the am. In addition, I noticed no brightening and smoothing as I have with other companies Vitamin C serum.
When I called to get a refund 2 1/2 months later, they explained that refunds were only within 14 days. I am in the military and very busy, and travel for work extensively. I did not have time to attend to that within 14 days. I feel quality companies should stand behind their products, and the very short return window really makes me suspicious. Most places have at least a 90 day return window. Will not be reordering from them at all.
