Prequel Skin Vitamin C Serum, L Ascorbic Acid Ferulic Acid Niacinamide Face

This brand is amazing for skincare. I have troubled acne prone skin and was told by my esthetician to use vitamin c in the mornings. Although I’m new to trying it it feels good on the skin and leaves a subtle glow. It’s very lightweight and dries pretty easily and then I layer my moisturizer on top. The scent threw me off at first but upon research I’ve learnt that the pure form of vitamin c has this strange somewhat off putting scent, however it does not linger.

This is what you get when you follow trends on social media. I was swayed to try this, and the product itself is ok I think. I've been using this for about 4 months, and haven't noticed any fading of hyperpigmentation, but haven't noticed any new spots either, so I assume it's doing its job. It does smell awful, but it's something I can get use to. However, the spray is terrible. It sprays all over the place, and I see yellow-orange spots all over my white vanity table. I even found a few spot on my bedspread, which is about 3 feet away from my vanity. Also, some of the liquid dries in the nozzle of the pump, leaving crusty specks that feels like grains of salt when applied to the face. I need to find another product asap.

I have used a couple different vitamin C serums previously and after researching more, I found out they did not have L-asorbic acid nor the ferulic acid. I have several products from the prequel line and if you watch any of Dr. Ellis’s posts, she explains why she includes certain ingredients and the best percentages of that ingredient to work most effectively without excessive irritation. I have had no irritation using this. Yes there is a smell, this is normal and present in several other more expensive brands with similar ingredients, it’s not a deal breaker for me and after about 15 minutes I don’t even notice it. My product was a pale yellow. I’m thankful no artificial scents are added to make it smell more pleasant. I like the pump, I squirt it into my hand, pat my hands together and evenly pat on my face. It does have a thinner consistency and has a slight oily feeling at first but soaks in quickly and does not leave my face oily or sticky. It leaves my skin with a nice glow after.

It very good bit c it didn’t irritate my skin

Seems to work quite well for my skin but warning: do not apply to any broken skin or it burns. Found this out from having a tender nose after a cold 🤧. Was worried it burns but after my skin healed it tolerates it fine. I didn’t notice the smell. Mine is light orange but i don’t think it’s oxidized, if you read the FAQ on their site it’s normal but you do have to use it within a few months of opening. Oh and yea the packaging is kind of crazy, for some reason it blasts out like it’s under pressure. I just push lightly on the pump and it’s not a big issue.

Very beautiful in the skin

Prequel's Skin Lucent-C serum has been a great addition to my morning skincare routine. My skin tolerates it very well with no irritation. The texture is thin and light, so it layers very nicely under moisturizer or sunscreen without pilling. I’ve noticed my skin looks smoother and a bit firmer after regular use. I’m giving it four stars mainly because of the packaging and scent. Even a tiny press on the pump releases too much product, and the smell isn’t great. The smell does fade quickly after applying, but it’s not pleasant. Still, the formula itself is impressive, with L-ascorbic acid, ferulic acid, and niacinamide working together to brighten and even out my skin tone. I will put up with the smell because it's such a great product. If you’re looking for a gentle yet effective Vitamin C serum that delivers glow without irritation, this one is definitely worth trying. Just go easy on the pump. Also, when you are trying a Vitamin serum for the first time, start off using it 2-3 times a week to see how your skin reacts before using on a daily basis. :)
