Ok, so as promised I am giving my review for my new Vitamin C from PSF. Wanted to give it a few trys to be able to review it properly.
Those of you who know me, know I love to give thorough reviews! So here it goes!!
1. The Texture: It is not oily or greasy at all. It just disappears into your skin like water, but leaves your skin feeling
plump & moist, but still clean. Not sticky or tacky at all and that is really important to me.
2. The Price and Quality: I truly think the texture is just like the Cellex-C High Potency Serum and I paid $90 for a bottle & it only had 10% Vitamin C  . And truthfully, I like this better because even though the texture is similar, the PSF doesn't leave my face feeling tight and unconfortable afterwards like the Cellex-C did.
3. BONUS: PSF Great CS strikes again: It comes with a free little amber glass vial of Antioxidant Booster, which is Ferulic Acid. ("It's a liquid that you just pour into
the Vitamin C Bottle & shake it up. It boosts the antioxidant properties of Vitamin C and amplifies it's photo-protective properties
by 8x" quoted by my skincare "Guru" Darren, as he so wonderfully explained to me after I e-mailed him to ask EXACTLY what to do with this cute little bottle!
So, I can say that I am now in LOVE with my new 15% C Serum from PSF, and am happy to report another product that I can use on my uber-sensitive skin that is still affordable for a starving artist with an * spam alert * to pricey makeup and skincare!  .
So if anyone is still thinking about this, I would grab up one while the price is so cheap! I just got an e-mail and the sale ends on Wed.!

| I'm happy with their discontinued vitamin c 20%, but only use it at night. I can't wait to try their new formula when I'm out with my current one!! |

I wonder when they will offer the Ferulic Acid on it's own or will they offer a serum like Skinceuticals with the Ferulic. I like the PSF over the Skinceuticals and Cellex-C but I still prefer the Vivier overall. If I couldnt' get Vivier I'd buy the PSF...I already have the acne mud and HA serum. |

Well, I get oily around my nose and cheeks in the summer, but have been drier this winter. The weather is changing, so my skin will probably get a bit crazy again. BUT I definately am prone to breakouts (adult acne). Although, my skin has been so much less crazy since using mmu so lately I haven't been having as much breakouts or oilies, really. I don't know if it's "made" for this type of skin though, you may want to e-mail their CS about that, but I know that it doesn't aggravate or irritate my skin issues. Probably not the best answer, but just speaking from my own experience.
HTH!

Used my PSF sample of Vitamin C 15% last night. Went on so smoothly (must be the hyaluronic acid) and felt so much better than my past use of Cellex. Skin this morning is smooth and no apparent reaction to the Vit C. I guess I'll have to use the whole sample to determine if the product is for me (I said good things about Alphaderma C&C at the beginning too! but then it started irritating my skin)
I hope this is a keeper... |

Thanks for the review Heather!
I am now waiting for this to be available @EDS! Right now I am down on my last drops of Skinceuticals AOX and wanted to try Vivier next as it received good reviews here, but now I think my wallet would definitely thank me for a more affordable substitute from PSF  |

| I have a similar question--how does it compare to the Cellularskin-rx C serum? (Other than the percentage of Vitamin C, that is.) |
|

| I noticed that some are mentioning using this at night...I thought you used vit c serums during the day. Is this product different? I ordered a sample and am wondering when I should use it especially since I want to stick with IS Clinical Active serum as well. Thanks! |

Thank you for your sharing.
After I finish my Cellularskin-rx C serum, I will purchase it.
Anyhow, EDS has not this but EDS still have emergen-C repair serum (Victamin C12%) which is dicontinue.
When EDS has PSF Vic-C serum?  |

Oooooooooh, I just got the new PSF "C" about a week ago and love, love, LOVE it to death!!! I had tried LaRoche Posey's C and found it heavy and sticky. This stuff is smooooooooth and makes my skin just GLOW. I put it on last every single morning.
It's now a MUST HAVE for me! |

I am so glad I waited a few days for EDS to stock this...
I was thinking of ordering it straight from the PSF website as I was running out of Vit C. But I already have some Cargo stuff sitting in my EDS shopping cart and didn't want to pay twice for international shipping cost from both EDS and PSF
So EDS finally stocks this and my patience pays off! Way to go EDS!! |

I apply Vit-C after toner but I have never waited until 15 min (Shoul it be?).
I am very lazy.
Therefore, I apply other after Vit-C sink and dry.  |

| Thanks you gals for the great review, will definitely give it a trial soon. BTW, should vit c be used in AM only or both AM & PM, also, can I use it in the evening in replace of my night cream? |
