Thank you, Kris. I was interested in that Triple C from skincare central and then forgot all about it! Do you have any hyperpigmentation/freckles? I was just curious if this helped fade/diminish them? Anyway, thanks again!

hmmm...not sure 'bout that. I don't think yellow is so good, it's supposed to be more clear, perhaps a slight ivory, but not yellow. Mine has turned and is now yellow.

Any change of color is a bad sign. As fab50 said, the PSF C is supposed to be on the clear side. Yellow is a sign that it has turned.

Hi rileygirl,

I have 2 freckles on the side of my face from driving Sad . I haven't been using the triple c everyday (more like 2 days/week) since i am on leave from work and don't leave the house really, so i can't comment on its effectiveness for lightening.

Maybe someone else who has used a triple c can comment?

and you're welcome of course Smile

Kris

Right, thanks for clarifying. Hmmm... I guess this means my bottle has already gone bad then Sad

I've used Skinceuticals, Ultraceuticals and PSF's C serums in the past. Currently using Vivier 20% and really like it. Have had it for >6months and the colour still hasn't changed.

I found that the best Vit C serums are from Cellex C. They have the cleanest ingredients and less back chemicals in their products. I too have tried most of the C serums offered at EDS.

I wonder if I can just add some fine Vitamin C powder to a handful of moisturizer when I apply that to my face?

That would be very fresh Smile

I just started trying the PSF C. I like it a lot so far, but I'm new to Cs so I can't really compare much. It seems to be helping a little with my existing acne and not causing any more, so that's enough to keep me happy for now. Smile
