Vitamin C Ester: Supercharged Brightening and Smoothing
A potent and highly stable form of antioxidant powerhouse vitamin C, Vitamin C Ester helps give the appearance of collagen-rich skin by smoothing, brightening and helping to minimize the look of discoloration over time. Unlike traditional vitamin C, Vitamin C Ester is fat-soluble and easily absorbable for maximum antioxidant benefits.
Alpha-Arbutin: Powerful Dark Spot Inhibitor
A molecule extracted from the bearberry plant that lessens the appearance of dark spots for a more even tone by helping to prevent the look of melanin in the skin. Pairs well with other brightening agents like vitamin C for increased effectiveness.
Resorcinol: Skin Radiance Enhancer
A molecule derived from pine tree bark that promotes a visibly bright, radiant-looking complexion by working to address pigmentation and uneven skin tone. It also helps provide antioxidant protection to fight against free radical damage.

This is an excellent product would buy again!
First this product has a very unique fragrance that is almost calming! It is very pleasant to apply and absorbs really quickly. I used this in the morning before my hylauronic acid serum and then my moisturizer. It makes the skin feel slightly sensitive not sure if I would say irritated but it disappears quickly. I feel long term this product will be useful and helpful at removing or improving dark spots or pigmentation. The product seems like it will go a long way and last. I would recommend depending on the actual price point.

Does what it says
I have dry skin and years of large and small sunspots. I tried this treatment all over my face for three days to lighten all my dark spots. It looked shiny--almost greasy--under my makeup. So I changed to applying it only to the darkest, most noticeable spots. Much better! No shine. It seemed to lighten the spots more each day. I was shocked what it difference it made in only two weeks. I will definitely keep using as a spot treatment. I started using on my décolleté as well. I did not like the smell but really like the result. I received this product for free in exchange for writing a review.

Woke my face up
I was sent this product in exchange for my honest review and have used it for 2 weeks both morning and night. The texture of this is lovely when dispensed. It's creamy and watery at the same time. The first thing I noticed was the energizing scent that I liked. I am a 50 year old woman who is often tired and looks it. I enjoyed using this more in the morning because I needed the boost before facing the public at work. The only issues I had was that it took a long time to dry down as opposed to other serums, but I feel that's because it's jam packed with active ingredients. It was also hard to blend foundation makeup over it because it dried down to a tacky texture that wouldn't allow me to glide my foundation over. The serum gummed up in spots as I rubbed my Kabuki brush over it. That was a small inconvenience compared to the results that I got. The hyperpigmentation over my lips seemed to diminish somewhat. I also ended up looking more alert and awake. Overall I feel the product is worth it for the moderate price point. Although I used this product 28 times already I still feel like I have another few weeks worth left. As you can see from before and after photos, I look nice and perked up!

I would buy this product again.
I used the product for about a week now. I use it 2x each day. The scent is very pleasant. The texture of the serum is thin and smooth. You really need to wash your face before applying and your hands after applying. My skin does feel energized after each application. I would recommend using this product.

Effective Vitamin C serum
I got Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester Intensive Dark Spot Treatment for free from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest opinion, and below is my experience with it. This serum works great for my skin texture and some dark spots that are caused by sun exposure. Its consistency is lightweight, goes on easily, and absorbs quickly, leaving my skin hydrated and brighter looking. I like that is not tacky, as most of similar ones usually are. It has a subtle citrusy scent, that goes away after is fully absorbed. I only use a small amount to cover my whole face, and it's going to last for a while. I would definitely purchase it in the future, as it's effective, does what it says, and last long. Definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for something that will help with aging, texture and uneven skin tone.

Vitamin C Ester works!!
I really like the Vitamin C Ester. I feel it made a noticeable difference in the dark spots. It is a mild fragrance, nothing too strong. A little bit goes a long way. If I had one complaint, it would be the dispensing cap on the bottle. On several occasions, it would kind of shoot out of the bottle no matter how gentle I tried to be. I would still use this again, but just wanted to mention.

Sensitive Skin
I liked the way the product felt on my face not too heavy but my face didn't seem to like it. My face turned really red and almost had a burning sensation. I did leave it on for a while but the burning and redness became worse so I had to wash it off.

Amazing product
I received this Perricone MD vitamin C serum for my honest review. This serum has a wonderful creamy texture to it and glide on smoothly. I have aged skin and the brightness to my face has been like no other serum I have used. This serum is something that will stay in my must have's and will continue to purchase.

I would buy this product again
I found he use of this product a little difficult. I received no pump to disperse the product evenly. I have to fight getting it out the bottle. So a dispenser is needed. This product has no smell and goes on smooth.
