Hi everyone,
I am using Vivier Vit C 10% for a week now, so far I like the textures and smell, but I find that my skin starting to react with pimples that I never had before I started Vit C. Did anyone experience this type of reaction? Is this normal reaction of just skin "cleaning"?
I tried to find topics here about it without success and would appreciate your input and suggestions. I like all the benefits that could this serum give, but I don't want to destroy my skin with all this pimples... may be it is normal temporary reaction?
Thanks!! |

As I am looking up Info on the Vivier C vit, i found your post. Are you better now ? It might be an alergic reaction. Is C vit the only change you made in your routine ? |

Are you using it every morning? Maybe ease into it with an every other day routine to start. |

Using LAA would give me blackheads. I never get them otherwise. I can only use Tetra or MAP forms of C. |

Lara1, what else did you use aside from Vivier Vitamin C serum? Did you prepare the skin first by using a toner? |

I think 10% is a little bit high for you. It is better to choose 5% first till your skin get use to it. |

Laura, Have you read my review on Vivier 20%? The first time I used it and vitamin C ever, I did have a reaction and the SA insisted that I keep up with it or I will regret it. She said that the company, brand and quality is really good and the best she has ever enter the market.
She told me not to apply it daily, she said to apply every fourth day, and then slowly reduce it to every third day and so on. I did break out and I really wanted to quit this product, but the SA insisted that this products works, and does not create more damage and in the long run I will see major improvements, more so for older, aging skin.
She was so right and this product is the best thing I have ever used. |
