I am absolutely loving Vivier Kine-C. I think it shows better results for me than Skinceuticals C+E and Cellex C Advanced C Serum and Ultraceuticals C Serum.

But has anyone else tried the Vivier C+E and Vivier C20 or any other Vivier serums?

WOuld love to know what other people's thoughts and experience on Vivier is.

Many thanks!!!

Yes, I've tried the 10% and 20% Vivier serums. Both are very good and I would repurchase the 20% for sure. I am currently using a 20% EmerginC serum and I definitely do not like it as much as the Vivier one. I think results are same or similar but the texture is too oily. The Vivier one was perfect. Not drying and not too oily so it can still be used in the morning.

I have the Vivier 10% and I like it well enough. I tried the 10% first as my skin can be sensitive sometimes. I use it every other day because in the beginning it was giving me little red spots when I used it everyday. I can't say that I notice any major results but I like the fact that I am (hopefully) doing something good for my skin in the long run. I agree with Mabsy that the texture is really nice.

I tried Vivier 10% before and I really liked it. It abosorbs so well and leave no film. I am using IS Clinical 15% now and I definately like it less than Vivier. IS Clinical somehow doesn't absorbs as well and leaves a film on the face. And I also notice my face to be more oily mid-day.

I can't wait to try Vivier 20% and Kine-C...

I am using Vivier 20, but I got a sample of Cellex-C eye gel and I still think the Vivier 5 (used for your eyes) is better.

Funny how people react differently. I like vivier 20% but found it left a film on my face. The IS Clinical superserum goes on like water & leaves no film. I haven't tried the IS 15%. I like watery textures since, as I age Crying or Very sad I seem to have to layer more products.

Maybe the word film is not the right word to describe the feeling on the skin. You do feel some weight to it but I find that it glides on better compared to Cellex-C.

I think Cellex-C feels more like water.

I wish I knew more about kinetin, since the vivier kine-c contain only 10% vit.c-now if it were 20%....that would be interesting.

I have used the Vivier C 10% for years, then switched to 20% as soon as it came out. Just recently switched to the Kine-C10% at the suggestion of my esthetician. I love this as well, but would prefer the C @ 20% so am going to follow her suggestion that I alternate serums between the 20% & the Kine-C after each one is finished. To find out more about kinetin, you might want to go to any of the Kinerase products (also very good).
