Review (4/5): Botanical scent
I've used a few different Vitamin C products on my skin. This one is not my favorite to wear, but it still works well. It's oily at first, so you need to allow some time for this to absorb and dry before your skin touches anything. After it dries, my skin just feels well hydrated and not greasy.
The scent. It can be off-putting to some. My kids think I smell weird. I like the citrus and spice scent--once I got used to it. There are a lot of competing herbal scents. I think it's the rosemary and bergamot combo that my family is smelling. Though there's also basil extract and white grapefruit. It fades pretty quickly.
I haven't had any skin issues or breakouts since I started using this. I have combination skin and still get an occasional pimple. This serum has salicylic acid in it which is my go-to for acne.
So, while I do like it and it works well with my skin, I think I'd choose something a little less herbal-smelling. However, I will use the whole bottle. It should last a long time since a few drops is all I need each day.
