APPLICATION & USE
This ASNaturals Serum is a potent 20% Vitamin C paired with Hyaluronic Acid. It is suitable for daytime use under sunscreen and moisturizer. It dries down quickly and without a sticky residue, so the skin looks dewy and moist when it is used without makeup, and when given adequate dry down time or when the serum is used sparingly, it does not conflict with makeup or make too sticky of a base to wear foundation. It has a light feeling; it does not sting, and it has a very light scent that dissipates when dry.
INGREDIENTS
There are many vitamin C serums on the market, so when selecting a Vitamin C serum, I like to see what complimentary ingredients are used to enhance the power of the Vitamin C. The ASNaturals Serum has Hyaluronic Acid, Jojoba Oil, Aloe Vera and Witch Hazel. These ingredients all work in tandem with the Vitamin C to boost its’ anti-aging properties.
Hyaluronic Acid is a super-moisturizer, it holds massive amounts of water compared to its weight and makes skin looks dewy, soft and plump. The high moisture content in the skin plumps wrinkles, so they seem softer, smoother, and less deep. In addition to giving a youthful appearance, the Hyaluronic Acid helps active ingredients sink deeper into the skin, which means the Vitamin C can make collagen on a deeper skin level, reaching deep wrinkles, age spots, redness, and discoloration.
Jojoba Oil and Aloe Vera both moisturize and heal skin. These ingredients give the skin a smooth and soft appearance while the Vitamin C goes to work on acne and dark brown spots and acne scars, healing and lightening the blemishes.
RESULTS:
Since this is a gentle Vitamin C Serum due to its’ supporting ingredients, I can use this on more delicate skin areas such as my throat, decolletage, and shoulder blades, as well as the delicate undereye area. My skin has a subtle glow, and my skin tone is becoming evener. I am especially happy with the improvement in the look of some sun damage on my collarbone and upper chest area.
CONCLUSION: This is a great price for a 20% Vitamin C serum. It is suitable for Sensitive and dry skin for treating acne, brown spots, sun damage, scarring, and wrinkles.

Does it dry out the skin?
Style Chicks says
It totally doesn’t! The “supporting” ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Safflower Oil keep your skin dewy and hydrated.
