I love this face oil
I love this face oil. It makes my skin look excellent and I can use it in place of a moisturizer without my skin breaking out or having excess oil. I would definitely recommend this product above any salon or high-end brands of vitamin c oils. The price was excellent. My only complaints are the following: 1) I personally have to use a lot to cover my face (5-6 drops) because I don't use other moisturizers. This means the product runs out fairly quickly. 2) Because it is an oil, it takes a long time to soak into my skin. this makes it very difficult to use under makeup as it makes my makeup cake and seep into my wrinkles. It's not flattering. If you don't use much, this may not be as much of a problem.<br />The pros, for me, outweigh the cons, though. It makes my skin look great. With my combination skin, it does not make my skin overly oily, it makes my skin feel soft, look younger, and brighter.<br /><br />The vitamin C component in the oil (according to the label) is tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, which according to my research is one of the &#34;newer&#34; forms of vitamin C for topical use. It has a &#34;high&#34; safety rating and is skin friendly because it is fat soluble and this makes it easier to absorb through the skin. It is suspended in other fruit oils that are traditionally good for the skin (red raspberry, like the other reviewer mentioned), preserving the integrity of the vitamin C (which spoils quickly in water). This makes the whole formulation skin-friendly and I see a significant difference in my skin after using it for only a few days. It is thick (it's made of true oils) but I highly recommend it.
