I am at the bottom of my Vivier Kine-C bottle and need to reorder. I am considering one of the following two Vit-C Serums but I cannot make-up my mind.

Vivier IDS C 20%
Obagi Professional C 20%

Have any of you tried both of these? I know the reviews on Vivier 20% are excellent but what about the Obagi 20%? I think the Obagi C is a newer product - yes?

Which one would you buy?

Thanks

I've tried both, and I much prefer the Vivier. The Obagi seemed to make my combo skin very dry, and I stopped using it halfway through the bottle. I also developed little bumps on my forehead that went away when I discontinued using it. The Vivier 20% is my favorite C serum, followed by Skinceutical AOX 20%, then PSF C Serum. hth Smile

Thanks for helping me out. I am glad I asked because I was kinda of leaning towards trying the Obagi but now that I read your reply I am going to stick with Vivier and try the 20%

Thanks Again
