This stuff is amazing! A while back I posted a question asking how to get rid of tiny red marks on the bikini line--scars left behind from ingrown hairs after years of shaving and waxing.

Well...I received a sample of Skinceuticals 15% Vitamin C serum and found it was too strong for my ultra-sensitive face. I was about to toss it when I remembered reading about how Vitamin C fades acne scars. In a sudden flash of brilliance (rare, but it happens Wink) I decided to try it on those bikini marks. I applied one drop, twice a day, and noticed improvement after just a few days. I kept using it, and after two weeks the spots have faded so much, they're barely visible!!!

Great "vitamin C success" story Alohagirl! I too found that vitamin C helps fade redness after squeezing out pimples etc. At the moment I'm using the 20% Vivier (love the Vivier vit C serums!) and I'm sure that I will be repurchasing!

Mabsy,

I'm curious...what is it you like about the Vivier serum vs. Skinceutical. I can use 10% concentrations on my face without irritation, and I'm having trouble deciding which brand to buy.

Vivier smells nicer (like green apples), whereas Skinceuticals just smells like vitamins, but I find it spreads easier.

By the way, did you ever get an answer to your question a while back about the ph of Vivier serums? (I know they are most effective at low ph.)
