Skin Lucent-C, Vitamin C Serum for Face. Professional Facial L-Ascorbic Acid, Ferulic Acid Formula with Niacinamide. Clinical Skincare for Luminous Firm Skin. 1oz Pump

This is my second vitamin c skincare product and I’m glad to say I won’t be switching to another one. Before, I tried a Korean vitamin c cream but didn’t notice any effect from it whatsoever.Prequel has brought me the nicer-quality serum that I need. I love that Dr. Sam Ellis makes this important skincare staple both approachable and affordable.It’s very liquidy so it took me a few tries to get the hang of application. I tried pumping several drops directly onto my face like some people do—but I have sensory issues and dislike that feeling.What I do is make a “cup” with the palm of my hand and pump 1-2 pumps of product into it so it pools. I dip my ring finger to get some of the serum and then apply it in large “dots” onto my forehead, then repeat the finger/dot method for my cheeks, chin, neck and nose. Then I use my fingers to collect remaining product from my palm and use them to rub in all of the “dots” evenly.I have dry skin. In my experience this serum is not sticky or tacky after applied. It feels smooth, plump and nice. The smell is a bit strange but I don’t mind it and it goes away after a few minutes. I usually wait 2-5 mins before applying my moisturizer and sunscreen to let it soak in.I will say you should apply this to bare skin always. I accidentally applied it over some leftover self-tanner lotion on my face and it was extremely itchy and uncomfortable all day. Use it as the first step for daily routine and you’ll be good to go.

This is a great vitamin C serum. You put this on dried down skin so wait for your toner to dry for maximum effectiveness. People say this has a pungent scent, it smells like a regular serum to me. This is watery consistency and not oily so it absorbs pretty well and I love the airless pump design.

Everything that Prequel makes is amazing. The quality and the size are outstanding, especially at this price. The bottle lasts a long time and it evens out skin tone and gives you a glow.

The serum is light in texture and absorbs into the skin easily with very minimal stickiness. Reviewers who likened the scent to hot dog water were spot on, but it's not a strong scent and fades quickly after applying. I do notice a luminescence on my skin immediately after applying, which is nice. I think it's one of the better Vitamin C serums I've tried and is priced competitively. The pump dispenser is problematic though. The pump itself leaked a bit under the cap during shipment. And I notice additional leaking under the cap when I shake the serum up before dispensing. It also dispenses more serum then needed.

This stuff makes my skin feel so soft. It’s a serum it’s kinda thick, it lasts all day. It’s not oily and wears very well with makeup. The bottle is medium size but lasts a long time. All skin tones can use this with no issues

Love! Is there a smell? Yes but most great vit c serums have the "hot dog water" smell. Get over it if you want a legit product. It goes away. You do have to kind of get the pump down or too much will come out but I'd rather it be in an airless pump than another container. I can deal with packaging. This is a high quality Vit C for the price. I will be repurchasing. Also, something else to note. If you swipe through the colors of oxidization...you will see if your Vit C is still okay to use. It's okay if it's still a little yellow. Some people are saying their product is bad just because there is color to it. As long as it's not super dark..compare to the pics. Lastly, I have very sensitive skin and this did not irritate me at all.

I started to really like this despite the gross smell & sticky texture it leaves. I actually started to like texture of it bc it gave me a nice dewy glow. BUT then I got a horrible rash on my face, neck, & chest from this. I didn't want to believe it was this, or thought maybe if I didn't use it at night w my tretinoin, & Glycolic acid pads that it wouldn't do it again. It did! As soon as I could use it again I did & got another skin rash. It's the only new product I'm using. It seems to be a good quality though very potent actives! So if you never get irritated from any skincare product's & u can handle a pretty gross smell then u may want to try this. It's to strong for me which is shocking 😲

I absolutely love this vitamin C serum! It has quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. The formula feels comparable to much higher-end serums I’ve tried, with similar ingredients and a luxurious, smooth texture. It glides on effortlessly, absorbing quickly without leaving any sticky residue.One of the standout benefits is its brightening effect. After using this serum consistently, I've noticed a noticeable improvement in the radiance of my complexion. It gives my skin a healthy glow, making it look more vibrant and even-toned.There is one minor downside—the pump can be a bit finicky. Sometimes it’s hard to get the serum out, and it tends to dispense a bit of air along with the product. While this doesn’t affect the quality or performance of the serum itself, it can be a slight inconvenience when you're in a rush or trying to use just the right amount.Overall, this vitamin C serum is a fantastic product with great results, a smooth, non-sticky feel, and a brightening effect that works wonders for my skin. The pump issue is small. Nonetheless, it’s a great value, especially when compared to pricier serums on the market.
