I'm thinking to try this serum, but puzzling about whether 20% or 12%. Gals...anyone try either one before and what's the feel and result?

My main concern is if 20% is too irritating?

Also, are the results between 20% and 12% going to have big difference? Just see their prices, they are. Laughing

Wild Cat, thanks for the info. Actually, I took 12% from EDS availability list. Razz

Have you tried it before? I wanted to try AlphaDerma CE at first, but got the info that L-ascorbic acid is better than Ester C in terms of penetrating power. And also,I do have more confidence in PSF, so planing to give a try.

Hmm..the 15% is their newest version of C-serum that's why it is 15% off. I only sampled PSF's C-serum (the old version) and I prefer Vivier's texture. But, many people love PSF's and I have a lot of confidence in PSF too. Maybe you should order a sample size first...

I'm using PSF 20%. It doesn't sink in well and the texture is sticky so I can't use it in the morning, but I am getting great results with it! Poreless skin and my skin looks brighter! Smile

Thanks for sharing, Lisey Very Happy

But is it too irritating? Or have to take certain period of "transition time" before having adapted to it and see the result?

You're welcome! Smile It's not irritating at all for me.. I started with Haba Vitamin C serum, then DHC, and now I'm using PSF 20%. I haven't broken at all and it's been more than a month. Smile

I think you can start from 12% and gradually turn to 20%.
