The combination of Vit C and Alpha Arbutin works well on my skin. The mix isn't too strong and works well on coloured skin prone to hyperpigmentation. Consistent use has lightened my acne scars significantly. Layering this with a good moisturizer will ensure your skin doesn't dry out. It has a light oily finish, so it is best used 1-2hrs before bedtime to allow it sufficient time to absorb. Review: Quick Delivery | Authentic Product - Price: in the same ballpark figure as its original price, this could come out a little more affordable for people who would have to pay a hefty shipping charge if they buy it at a different web store. Product Review: Alpha Arbutin is a tyrosinase inhibitor, in simple terms it helps with skin hyperpigmentation - The gold standard actually. Vitamin C, gives you the glow! Together this serum is great for treating hyper pigmentation. The effects of the serum are enhanced when followed with a moisturizer and sunscreen. Using this serum and not using a sunscreen can lead to damaging effects on the skin and in some cases, have the opposite effect (as with all Vitamin C products). There are milder versions for beginners and stronger versions for advanced users available. Results: Bought it for my aunt, saw visible results in 6 weeks of usage along with a moisturizer and sunscreen. ## Features - This Formula Combines Two Of The Most Powerful Brightening Agents In Skincare: Pure Vitamin C And Alpha Arbutin - Both Solubilized In A Completely Water-Free Formula For Ideal Stability - Vitamin C Is An Effective Antioxidant That Brightens The Skin Tone And Reduces Signs Of Aging - Brand: The Ordinary ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07N758X2S | | ASIN | B07N758X2S | | Active Ingredients | vitamin_c | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,588 in Health ( See Top 100 in Health ) #9 in Vitamin C Supplements | | Brand Name | The Ordinary | | Country as Labeled | Venezuela | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (752) | | Customer reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (752) | | Date First Available | 6 June 2018 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions | 11.5 x 3.5 x 11.5 centimeters | | Item Form | Oil | | Item Volume | 30 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 0.12 Grams | | Item model number | Vitamin C | | Manufacturer | DECIEM | | Manufacturer | DECIEM | | Manufacturer Part Number | Vitamin C | | Material Features | Antioxidant | | Material Type Free | soap free | | Model Name | TS Cosmetics Candy Cream 50 ml - Mul | | Model Number | Vitamin C | | Number of Items | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Original | | Product Benefits | Brightening | | Product Dimensions | 11.5 x 3.5 x 11.5 cm; 0.12 g | | Recommended Uses For Product | Dark Spots | | Scent Name | Lemon | | Skin Type | All | | Special Ingredients | Antioxidant | | Specific Uses For Product | Uneven Skin Tone | | Target Use Body Part | Face | | UPC | 769915194753 769915194524 | | Unit Count | 30 Milliliters | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** The Ordinary - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 11.5 x 3.5 x 11.5 centimeters - **Item volume:** 30 Milliliters - **Special features:** Original ## Images ![Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2%, 30 ml, Vitamin C - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51HcPUBytfL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is the bottle sealed?** A: Yes it was sealed but it didn’t suite my skin **Q: Is this authentic?
