Browsing through the aisles of Pharmacia in Madrid, I purchased this serum on a whim. Quickly glanced at the ingredients and thought let’s try it. It sure has some pretty effective ingredients for brightening and exfoliating the skin.
The packaging was interesting, with 30ml bottle accompanied with a vial of Vitamin C powder. You need to empty the powder in 30ml bottle (travel friendly) and give it a good shake ensuring all ingredients have nicely incorporated.
I used this every night after toning and experienced slight tingling sensation (sensitive skins might not enjoy it) that dint last long. I noticed that the glycolic acid helped my skin when I was experiencing breakout. Next morning my skin felt brighter and spots shrinking . It certainly did wonders to my older acne scars, some pigmentation and dull areas. This serum doesn’t have any smell to it but over a period of time I noticed the color of serum changed not impacting its efficacy. I’m assuming it’s due to vitamin c which is not the most stable ingredients.
As with any glycolic acid and vitamin c product, I ensured I had adequate sun protection at all times. My only gripe with this product would be I wish it had slightly lower alcohol content. Whilst I fully understand that alcohol is needed to stabilize glycolic acid, it’s just tad strong. In saying so, I would definitely buy it again!

Is the serum half of the bottle??even I purchased it..on opening it’s having a strong smell..is that product genuine..can u lemme know the sealing details for this serum..
Not sure where you purchased your product from, but the strong smell is of Alcohol. Yes the bottle wasn’t full as it has to accommodate the vitamin c mixture in the bottle (which we need to empty and shake before use).
Used it on my arms with dark spots, I felt a warm sensation and then my skin became intensely red, was so afraid I washed it off with soap and water. I think the ingredients are too strong for my skin.
