- Most helpful negativeThe user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 5 monthsRating: 1 out of 5Affordable Vitamin C product, but no visible results for meI have used Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow daily for exactly three months. The serum has a light texture that absorbs quickly and works well with other skincare. Unfortunately, I did not notice any clear improvement in skin radiance or tone during the test period. I also found the scent quite strong and somewhat reminiscent of fish oil or omega 3, which detracted from the overall impression for me. One aspect I do think is worth highlighting is the product's shelf life. According to the manufacturer, the serum lasts eight months from production and new batches are produced continuously. However, my bottle only had about three months left until the expiration date when I received it. This meant I had to open and start using the product immediately, without the option to plan when I wanted to introduce it into my skincare routine. For me, this is a downside as I prefer to have some flexibility when trying new products. A tip for other users is to store the serum in the refrigerator. I find that it helps the product feel fresh longer, while also giving a cool and pleasant sensation upon application. In summary, I appreciate the idea behind a fresh Vitamin C formula and the well-thought-out ingredient list, but the product did not meet my personal expectations regarding user experience and results. #lykomission #lykoreview4089 views

- The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 1 weekRating: 5 out of 5โจ Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow Serum โ a Vitamin C serum for fresher radiance โจI think a good facial serum is a nice way to complement your skincare routine, especially when you want to focus on radiance and a more even skin tone. ๐ Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow Serum is a light, water-based serum with Vitamin C that suits you if you want to give your skin a little extra glow. What I like about the concept is that the formula combines several antioxidants in one product. What makes the serum particularly interesting is that it contains 15% pure Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid, together with ferulic acid and Vitamin E. Vitamin C is appreciated in skincare for its antioxidant properties and its ability to contribute to a more radiant complexion. โจ The combination with ferulic acid and Vitamin E helps to enhance the antioxidant function, making the formula especially interesting for those who want to work on skin radiance and unevenness. The serum has a very light, almost watery consistency and is applied after cleansing, before other serums and face creams. A few drops are enough for the face, and it can be used both morning and evening. ๐ In the morning, it works well as part of a routine finished with moisturizer and sun protection. What I appreciate about this type of serum is that it has a clear focus and can easily be integrated into daily skincare. At the same time, pure Vitamin C is an active ingredient that can feel strong for sensitive skin, so itโs wise to start gently and test the product on a small area first. Another thing to keep in mind is that Vitamin C is sensitive to air, light, and heat. To help the serum maintain its quality, itโs therefore good to store it cool and dark, preferably in the refrigerator. In summary, Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow Serum is an interesting option for those who want to complement their skincare with Vitamin C and focus on radiance and a more even skin tone. ๐ The light formula and combination of antioxidants make it a product worth discovering if you want to give your skin a little extra glow! #lykocreator #lyko #beauty #beautytips #beautylover482 views

- The post was made 1 monthRating: 5 out of 5A potential dupe for SkinCeuticals for a fraction of the price! ๐คฉI have previously used SkinCeuticals Vitamin C serum, which costs over 2,000 kr, and have now tried Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow for around 200 kr. And WOW, my first impression is that they feel practically identical! Same consistency, same feel on the skin, and even exactly the same characteristic scent! Itโs a bit special, almost coffee-like, and I know many find it difficult. But for me, it really reminds me of SkinCeuticals. So far, I have only used C-Glow once, so I obviously canโt comment on the results or whether the effect is the same. But based on my first impression, this feels like an incredibly promising dupe for a fantastic but very expensive serum. I will definitely continue to use it and come back with an update on the results. But already now, I wanted to tip those of you who love SkinCeuticals but would like to avoid the price tag! โค๏ธ1712 views

- The post was made 1 monthRating: 3 out of 5Vitamin-C that doesnโt smell good?!Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow Serum was one of the serums I received in my lovable along with LayGlow, and it has been very exciting to test. The serum contains 15% vitamin C (ascorbic acid) as well as the antioxidants vitamin E and ferulic acid, which both help to stabilize the vitamin C and protect the skin from external stressors. The product is aimed at all skin types and is supposed to contribute to increased radiance, a more even skin tone, reduced pigmentation spots, and support the skinโs collagen production! โจโจ The first thing that impressed me was the texture. The serum is exactly as light as the brand describes it โ almost completely water-like. It absorbs incredibly quickly into the skin without feeling sticky or heavy. I use about five drops which I first put in the palm of my hand and then gently pat into my face. Although the brand recommends applying the drops directly to the skin, my method works perfectly for meโฃ๏ธ What I noticed immediately was the radiance. The skin gets a very nice glow after application and feels fresh and moisturized. Even though I have quite sensitive skin, which can easily react with redness or acne breakouts when I introduce new products, I have not experienced any negative reactions after a few days of use at all. That is definitely a big plus โญ๏ธ What, however, detracts from the overall impression is the scent. I find it hard to pinpoint exactly what it smells like, but unfortunately, I donโt think it smells particularly good. The scent feels quite strange and is not something I look forward to when applying the product. It does disappear after a while and is fully manageable, but since the user experience is an important part of skincare, it still affects my rating quite a bit.. In summary, Geek & Gorgeous C-Glow Serum is a serum with a fantastic texture, quick absorption, and a really nice glow. It also seems to be gentle even for sensitive skin. If the scent were more appealing, the rating would be significantly higher! 3/5 โญ๏ธ866 views

- The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 2 monthsRating: 5 out of 5verified customerAffordable favorite๐ธStable vitamin C serum that does not irritate my skin. Contains 15% ascorbic acid and also ferulic acid which stabilizes the ascorbic acid. Opened packaging is durable for about 3 months if stored in the fridge. But with daily use, itโs no problem. It should be clear in color and mine have never oxidized. This serum has the classic sausage juice smell๐ญ But you get used to it quickly๐ My skin becomes clearer and gets a nice glow with daily use. Really recommend it to those who canโt tolerate higher percentages of vitamin C๐ Great product๐ #lykorview #cvitamin4249 views

- The post was made 3 monthsRating: 4 out of 5verified customerLight serumOf the ones I've tried so far, this seems to be a good vitamin C serum. Looking forward to seeing if it shows any results๐ฅฐ No irritation or anything like that on my skin. The only negative is that the consistency is very runny, like water. Which makes it a bit difficult to apply without it running off your fingers and skin. You just have to be very quick๐ I wish it had a slightly thicker consistency #lykoreview2065 views
Geek & GorgeousC-Glow Serum 30 ml
Not available in this market
A super-light, water-like 15% Vitamin C + extra antioxidants (Ferulic Acid & a smaller amount of Vitamin E) formula to give the skin environmental protection, boost collagen & even the skin tone. Skin type:ย all skin types - please do a patch test if you have sensitive skin
Skin concern:ย dark spots, aging, dull & uneven skin Pure Vitamin C (or Ascorbic Acid) is a 3-in-1, clinically proven superstar that gives the skin environmental protection (antioxidant), boosts the skin's own collagen production and fades hyperpigmentation. This water-light formula contains 15% Vitamin C & extra antioxidants to give a healthy glow, even and firm the skin.ย The disadvantage of pure Vitamin C is that it is super unstable, and hard to formulate with. This formula uses a low pH and extra antioxidants to help to stabilize Vitamin C, but even like this, C-Glow comes with a relatively short, 8 months shelf-life.ย key ingredients:
Vitamin Cย (ascorbic acid โ 15%) โย A clinically proven active that gives the skin environmental protection (antioxidant), boosts collagen production and fades hyperpigmentation. Also gives an instant glow to the skin.
Ferulic acid + Vitamin Eย โ Antioxidants that help to stabilize Vitamin C and increase its antioxidant power. The formula contains a high amount of Ferulic Acid, and a smaller amount of vitamin E.
Dimethyl Isosorbideย โ A new-generation solvent that aids the proper penetration of Vitamin C + solubilizes the high amount of Ferulic Acid into the formula.ย
Use:
Apply a few drops to the face after cleansing, before using other serums and/or creams. Ideal to use in the AM but can be applied PM as well. As the C-Glow formula has a water-like texture, it is recommended that you put a drop directly onto your face and quickly pat it on with your other hand.
