Another #deszellminireview on #vitamincserum for today! This was one of the few products that is highly requested by my followers for me to try and review. Klairs’ is a 5% vitamin C serum with mildly acidic pH at 3.81. Texture is a bit thick, but it’s not grainy nor rolls up upon application. In terms of texture this is far better than The Ordinary. As such, I much prefer the texture of this one compared to Votre Peau for daytime use under makeup. In terms of absorption, cause it’s not really thin I can feel that some of the products still clings on the surface upon application. It feels like oil application rather than velvety serum. But it doesn’t take long for the skin to absorp the serum - give it a minute or two. It feels very drying on the skin but doesn’t really stings on the skin. Means: sensitive skin should be ok with this, oily and normal skin would love this but for dry and dehydrated skin, please add a layer of hydrating serum after this. Considering the price which is USD 23 or around IDR 300,000 on online shop, this serum is value for money. It’s a great antioxidant serum to maintain your skin’s glow and brightness. Helps with overall complexion. But it’s not as effective for pigmentation and PIH compared to B Skin V Line concentrate and Novexpert Booster Vitamin C. It will probably take longer. But if you’re a vitamin C novice, you can start with this! My biggest beef with this is how fast it oxidises, after a month of using this, I can already see the liquid turned yellowish a bit. Once it oxidises, it is less effective. The whole bottle lasted me 1,5 months (used twice daily).
