L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Clinical Vitamin C Serum

This serum smoothed my skin texture and evened out my skin tone. I have freckles and noticed they had lightened after using this product for a couple of weeks. It made my skin hydrated and plump.

This serum has a gloopy consistency which spreads easily and is not sticky. It has silicone in it which leaves a silky feeling on the skin. There is a slight fruity fragrance which disappears soon after application but then there is a smell similar to fake tan which lingers for a few hours.

I used it for about 3 weeks consistently but then developed dermatitis on my top lip which I’m unsure if it’s related to this product or not. The dermatitis has now healed so I will resume use of this product.

I was sent this product to trial but with the ~$60 retail price tag I probably wouldn’t purchase it again as I found the fragrance and lingering smell to be bothersome, as well as risk of irritation. I will probably look for another vitamin C serum with a simpler ingredient list.

I’ve used serums before but I don’t think this serum has really changed the look and appearance of my face. I have more acne due to using it and I’m unsure if this is just a coincidence. I stopped using it for this reason and it’s started to clear up.

I like that it doesn’t really have a smell, previous serums I’ve used they have had harsh smells which I don’t like very much.

I like the texture and it absorbs very quickly and I can use it nicely under my makeup or bb cream.

I don’t know if I’d use this again but I’m acne prone so it may just be my skin type, although this hasn’t happened with other serums before.

I feel like my skin tone hasn’t changed very much but I do feel it has reduced my pores.

Overall I probably wouldn’t use it again.

I've been using this for about a month now and have noticed that blemishes from pimples/blackheads etc are fading more quickly, and my skin seems a bit "glowier". It has an artificial fragrance that is a bit overpowering at first but I quickly got used to it (other cheaper products have been much worse), though I would've preferred no added fragrance at all. The bottle is quite nice, and I like that it is opaque to protect the vitamin C from degrading in the light. At first I used it twice a day as per the instructions, but with my sensitive (eczema) skin I found that it left a burning sensation. After that I switched to using once a day and had no further issues. 3 drops (1 on forehead, 2 on the cheeks) is sufficient for covering the face and neck. Overall I'm happy with it and will continue to use every day

My skin is on the combination oily side. I have large pores, particularly on my nose and I have a lot of redness, acne scars and uneven skintone. I thought this serum would be good at brightening my skin and helping to fade the acne scars and redness. Overall this was a nice serum to use, but I didn’t see much difference to my skintone.

I have been using the serum for over a month. I have sensitive skin so I introduced this slowly into my skin as vitamin c and salicylic acid might be a bit harsh for my skin. I used the serum one a day at night for 7-10 days and then increased the usage to twice a day, morning and night. I applied this underneath my moisturisers. Even though I did not see any change in my uneven skintone, but skin does feel smooth after using it. I think my pores are also smaller. So I will continue to use it as I have a lot of redness which will take time to fade.

I found this product easy to use. The glass bottle is thick and opaque which means the product inside is protected well (vitamin c has a short shelf life if exposed to the light). The applicator is a dropper and I used two drops for my whole face. The scent was fresh and almost had a slight citrus scent.

Overall I will continue to use serum to see if I can any better results with fading my acne scars.

As someone without a regular skincare routine, this review opportunity seemed like a good one to find out if this product would work!

My first thoughts were that the serum comes in a simple but elegant package, with a dropper top for easy application. The initial scent is orange-y and pleasant, but the lingering smell was not as nice after it sat on my face for a while.

I have now used this consistently for around 5 weeks, morning and night, according to the directions of 2-3 drops applied and gently massaged in after washing my face. It applies smoothly and feels good on the skin, just very slightly tacky as it dries.

While I had some hopes this would make a difference, I unfortunately haven't seen any noticeable improvement in my skin. It is maybe a little brighter than normal... if you stand back and squint a bit!

Since I haven't noticed much difference, I will use the rest of this bottle up, but I wouldn't purchase this product to use again - unless my skin becomes noticeably worse after stopping. On that same note, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're looking for a somewhat nice-smelling serum to add to your skincare routine.

This revitalift serum by Loreal comes in a glass bottle with a dropper which I absolutely love! Makes using it so easy and your not wasting any product. The only downside to this product was the colour - yellow. Just was really off putting. The revitalift vitamin c serum really does help to reduce pores and gives brighter skin. I get pores on my chin area and it felt really smooth after applying this serum, was a lot less visible after a few weeks too. I'll definitely continue to use as it's the first serum I have used that has worked so well on pores. I also noticed it helped with dry skin areas on my face too

I have been getting a little more familiar with using products that contain Vitamin C, so I was very excited to try this serum. 12% is a decent amount of concentrate in a product!

The bottle is a good size and easy to dispense the product with the pipette. One pipette was adequate for my face and neck. The bottle is opaque, which is hard to tell how much you have left, but great for protecting the product as I hear that Vitmain C products can degrade with sun exposure.

The serum itself has a really nice scent and consistency. It is a thicker serum, but settles into the skin quickly. I have been using this morning and night and can see instant brightness after each application.

I am not sure whether it has really reduced my pore size, but it certainly has helped balance my skin tone and texture and has brightened my complexion. Definitely worth a try!

I’m new to using vitamin c serum and have to admit that I wasn’t sure what to expect.

I found this serum lightweight and it absorbs quickly in to the skin. It leaves a slight stickiness but I didn’t find that this affected applying moisturiser on top or make up. The serum is very hydrating and leaves a nice glowed appearance.

I have sensitive skin and this product hasn’t caused any irritation or redness.

I have found that overall my skin tone has improved. My fine lines appeared reduced when using this serum only with no make up on top. When make up applied on top I found that foundation looked clumpy and the fine lines looked worse and more noticeable.

As a first time Serum user, I was excited when it arrived. Much to my surprise the picture on the box is the same size as the bottle inside. It has a dropper for easy application. I can't accurately describe the fragrance but I LOVED it - sort of floral with a sweet note. The Serum has a creamy yellow lightweight texture that glides on easily and absorbs quickly. Initially my skin drank it in and the recommended 2-3 drops wasn't enough but after 2 days I could cover my face and neck with 3 drops. It made my skin feel hydrated, smooth and just felt lovely to wear. After the 6 weeks my skin definitely feels softer and I also noticed some evening out in texture but no change in pores or lines yet. I really enjoyed using this serum and can't wait to see how much more my skin improves.

I am a skincare lover who admittedly leans towards high end products so I was sceptical when I received this product. However after trying it for a few weeks I am converted. I have never had more people comment on how good my skin looks than in the past few weeks. My complexion is much brighter and glowing now. I will absolutely repurchase this product and keep using it. I also love how well it works under makeup so that is another huge plus for me.
