Its desmolytic action helps to smooth out and soften the surface of the skin by promoting the elimination of dead skin cells. It is present at an active level while maintaining its suitability for sensitive skin and its tolerance. Chosen because it is the reference active ingredient for its exfoliating action on the surface, known everywhere in the world as the dermatological active used by dermatologists.

Oxidised and useless after a few days

Serum turned orange within a few days. I did all the right things keeping it away from light and shutting tightly after use. Very frustrating and disappointing as it is useless now and the bottle is full.

Need guidance

I bought this month ago and it does brighten the skin. I am observing I apply serum and leave it for 10 min and then layer with laroche azelic acid gel cream and moisturiser. But while applying moisturiser I the serums are peeling away from skin?can you advise what am I doing wrong please?

buy something else

look it was a nice product for the two weeks i had and used it however it oxidised within that time and is now longer not suitable for use. Having to chuck a 2/3 full bottle of product when it’s this expensive is a joke.

Hi Bayleigh, We understand your frustration and truly thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Please note that Vitamin C oxidises very quickly with contact to air - hence the shelf life for this particular product is three months from opening. We can guarantee efficacy during this timeframe, and recommend using it daily as soon as it's opened, stored in a cool, dark place, and firmly closing the bottle after use. Should you wish to speak with us directly, please contact our Consumer Affairs division on 1300 651 991 (open 8am-5pm AEST, Mon to Sat) and a team member will gladly assist. Thank you again for contacting us with your thoughts. Best wishes, La Roche-Posay AU/NZ

Stains

I bought this item approximately 3 weeks ago i thought maybe I had touched something that was staining my hand but couldn't figure out what then I looked in the mirror and realised my face also was stained orange which soap wasn't getting it off my hand so face wash wasn't getting it off my face, product works its just a shame it stains

Magic in a bottle

BEST VITAMIN C I HAVE EVER USED. I am not one to ever write a review however this product deserves one. It is actually incredible. It’s magic in a bottle. I use/ have used many la Roche posay products but never their vitamin c. I purchased this product by chance because the one I usually buy was out of stock. I am so happy with this product that I ended up buying the entire serum range.
