My Experience with The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12
Packaging
Excellent dropper packaging. Being dark in color it ensures that the product inside is not oxidized or photodamaged in any way.
Texture/Consistency
It’s a liquid that gets spread and absorbed don the skin easily but it leaves behind a tacky feeling on the skin
Fragrance
No fragrance that I can discern.
Ease of Application
Ver Easy to apply. Leaves a warm tingling sensation on the skin.
Effectiveness
Absolutely love this. It works. It brightens and evens out the complexion and doe not dry the skin out. I always top it up with a moisturizer to make sure that my skin is not ultra sensitive or dry.
Always use a sunscreen every day when you are using this. Vitamin C is great to heal photodamage but it also makes skins sensitive to sun rays.
