I just got a skin ceuticals serum 10 AOX today, upon opening it I've noticed it's a dark yellow/orange colour. There is no expiry date on the bottle. Should I be using this or contacting the supplier about it?

I had used clique serum which contain vitamin C,every week I used one bottle for 5 ml,at first,the serum it lucidity,but at weekend the serum become yellow,because of the oxygenation.So when you use a serum which contain vitamin C,you may use it quickly to insure effect.

Its oxidized. It should be champagne to very light yellow. SkinCeuticals does not have exp dates on items. It wont hurt you to use but wont be very effective.

You'd return it and get a refund or replacement!

Hi Binkie!

I have been using the SkinCeuticals C serums for years. They should be clear when you receive them. Over time they will turn a pale yellow, but that would be after 2 months or longer.

I used to order my SkinCeuticals C serums from DermaDoctor. Now, I just order them directly from SkinCeuticals.

Which supplier did you order from?

Yes, it is oxidized. Strawberry offers not bad service. Hopefully, you can have this issue solved soon.
