I got this product as a free gift with my order. Can anyone tell me how do you use it and what is it for? Thanks.

This is their Vitamic C serum. I had ordered the Vivier 20% Serum and received the 10 as a sample as well.

Here's the link to the EDS page that sells this product. You'll find some information there as well about what the product does.

I use mine (the 20%) everyday in the morning before I put on my moisturizer.

If you never used a vitamin C before, you may want to start slowly. Start with once a week application, then every 4 days, then ever 3 days and so on.

I've started with 5% and moved my way up to 20%.

Here is my review on the 20%.

It's a vitamin c serum with 10% vit c for anti-oxidant purposes. I've used it before and it has a nice finish but could not stand the smell. Apply after toning and before serums or moisturiser.

I've been trying it lately. I got it as a gift and I LOVE it so far - unless I wake up in a few days with 10 zits, lol.

PSF didn't do this to me.

I love this. I have been alternating the 10% with the Kine C for about a month. I just ordered the 20%.

I have only used Cellex C and Candy's Triple C and I like Vivier the best.

Skincare any change in your feelings about this product?
I have been using the Kine C and it's very nice but have noticed no real change, would you suggest getting the 20%??

I want to start with vivier 5% C Serum. But it is for eye area. Can I also use it all over my face and neck?

I'm no expert but I don't see why you shouldn't be able to put it on your face. I believe I saw some people mentioning that they put it on their faces Very Happy

I don't see why not also, but it would be expensive but it is a safer way to start.

As for my review, I have no changes to make because it does not cause acne for me. Knowing that vitamin C was proven to be effective, I don't hesitate to continue to use it.

The only think I can confirm is that I still find that there is still a feeling that it helps firm your skin. Overall, my skin tone is good but I do still get acne every month. Vitamin C seems to help clarify my skin. Using a physical scrub like what I have recently raved about is the KIAJ. I love that also but some may not because it is strong.

I love Vivier because the shelf life is excellent and very effective. I did like ISC Super Serum but it turned colour very quickly & the strength is not that high.

I forgot to add that I did not like Vivier with vitamin C & E or something like that. I got breakouts from it.

I think I mentioned this before in my review - I thought Vivier was breaking me out when I first started, but at the medical spa, they pushed my to continue with Vivier Vitamin C 5% and just use it once a week, and so on. She said that it takes time for your skin to adjust. I found Vivier very effective and just could not believe how great my skin looked!

I still had acne problems and I gave up on that. I went to see a dermo and now that is more under control.
