| Funny, I did the same thing once. I couldn't believe it. So irritating as this stuff is expensive!! I recall just staring at it every time I walked in the room -and not throwing it out for a long long time. It's like making a recipe that doesn't come out right and you keep sampling it??? It just doesn't change?? Maybe not the best illustration but I'm with you. I still need another serum. Where did you get yours? Yermojoe |

| did it turn another color? Yellow, brown, amber? If so, you'll have to throw it away...If not, cap it and use! |

| You may have shortened its life but it'll probably still work. To keep Vit C effective for as long as possible, you should store it in the refrigerator. I think I read somewhere about wrapping the bottle in tin foil as well. |

| I left my Vivier not properly closed overnight and it's fine. As long as it's not turned dar orange or brown color then it should be fine. |

Got my original C serum from PSF (20%) hard to tell the colour as the bottle is brown!
Can't believe Avon do a C serum (10%) got one off ebay in case my PSF one was knackered!
I'll drop a bit on some white paper, see what colour it is! (Avon one is orangy colour from new)

 The dropper is clear - just take it out of the bottle and have a look to see what color the serum is. If you left it open for just one night then it's fine.
Btw, sorry to say, but the Avon serum is crap! |

 derr oh yeah I forgot the dropper is clear! (Shows how long is since I used it was worried if it was 'off' could cause damage)
Hey I got the Avon one for £4 (about $2.30) thought would be worth a try for that must say its a bit sticky, I was desperate!

Ooo can you not edit your posts these days?
Maybe this should be in product reviews, glad Avon C was cheap, found it leaves greasy shiny film and smell reminds me of nail polish remover! *fingers crossed my PSF C will be ok* (cost me a fortune in import tax when bought it!)
