One of Amazon's most popular anti-aging Vitamin C serums....

San Antonio Gal — Mon, 30 Sep 2019 13:13:31 GMT

LilyAna Naturals Vitamin C serum, $20 (was $22)

There are hundreds, if not thousands of Vitamin C serums that promise brighter, more youthful skin.

Amazon offers a slew of anti-aging products to choose from, but LilyAna Naturals Vitamin C serum is a clear favorite. And for a limited time only, it’s on sale for just $20.

Reviews praise everything from the serum’s low price to its skin-transforming results, which include anti-aging benefits, dark spot fading and overall improvement in skin’s tone and texture.

“This serum has transformed my skin!” raves a fan who says the serum helped fade acne scars and dark spots. “I’ll never use another serum again!”

So what makes LilyAna Naturals Vitamin C serum such a hit?

The formula

LilyAna Naturals formulates this serum with 20 percent plant-based vitamin C and 5 percent botanical hyaluronic acid. Together, the two ingredients provide potent antioxidant benefits, a boost in collagen production and plump, hydrated skin. Other components include skin-repairing vitamin E, moisturizing jojoba oil and healing gotu kola extract.

“I am on my third jar and am very happy with this and the other LilyAna products I am using. Cruelty-free is very important to me as are natural ingredients, and this company meets those standards,” notes a happy customer.

The reviews

Amazon shoppers praise the LilyAna Naturals serum for addressing everything from dark spots to fine lines and wrinkles. Here are just a few highlights:

Dark spots: “It’s been maybe a year of using this product and my forehead spots are gone, all except 2 or 3 very dark ones that were probably freckles I already had. And using four drops a day has lasted me this long! It’s now time to order another bottle. So yes, I vouch for this product!”

Acne scars: “I love this stuff!! I’ve been using it twice a day for little over a month now … I didn’t have the immediate results that other reviewers seemed to have, but after a month of 2x daily use, I do see vast improvements. A lot of my discoloration has gone away, my acne scars have faded (incredible as they’ve been there for years), and my skin appears to be brighter overall.”

Dullness: “I’m on my second bottle. I’m in love. The color and condition of my skin have improved. My skin looks brighter and younger, instead of dull and tired.”

Skin tone and texture: “I’ve used other Vit C serums, but none of them even come close to this one. From the first use on I’ve seen nothing but improvement in my skin tone and texture.”

Sensitive skin: “I have extremely sensitive, acne prone, aging skin — so have difficulty finding a product that not only has positive effects but also does not irritate my skin … I am on my 4th bottle of this vitamin C serum, and am still seeing positive effects (Knock on wood)!! My face is not irritated at all; it feels extremely smooth and looks and feels super hydrated.”

Fine lines: “My face feels so firm and lifted since I started using it three weeks ago. I use it twice a day — morning and night. I am 67 years young, and I see such a difference in my fine lines and wrinkles.”

Wrinkles: “I’m 74 and have some deep wrinkles above my eyes. I’ve tried so many other products, and nothing worked. I saw improvement with the first application, but I was skeptical that any product could work so quickly and thought maybe it was just temporary. Well, I’ve been using the product for two weeks now (morning and evening applications), and the wrinkles are disappearing. I’m now applying the serum to the rest of my face, and the texture of my skin has greatly improved. This is the first product that works, and which is why I’m wholeheartedly posting this positive review!”

Bottom line

“Nothing has ever made my skin have a healthy glow like this product does,” raves an enthusiastic reviewer. “This Vitamin C serum has been a game changer. This stuff is so much better than any spa product and high priced products out there. What a great value for such an awesome product. If you are on the fence, you have nothing to lose! Buy it! You will love it!”

@San Antonio Gal

I like all the things in this one, (the MSM, even the horsetail, which I already know is good for skin and hair) however, it doesn't specify what form of C they are using. Plant based is all they say.

Are you using this?

They also have a retinol.

I tried their Retinol. It was a little too strong for me. I sent it back.

Has @SilleeMee weighed in on this product? I always like to see what her take is on various products.

SAP has been used in vitamin C serums for a long time. It has been found to be less effective than MAP. I prefer using the somewhat new kid on the block called tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (abbrev THD ascorbate). It's an oil, highly stable and penetrates the skin directly to the deeper layers. Has an exceptional ability to lighten skin and dark spots in as little as two weeks. Most serums containing THD will cost you more, however. THD is not an inexpensive ingredient. I make my own 10% THD. Making VC serum is my passion.

Eva Naturals is another Amazon line that is good, there are so many of these kinds of unknown brands on Amazon and Ebay, it is hard to choose, many of them all natural.

I have been using the BioBare Vitamin C, B, E and Ferulic Serum. I'm on my 3rd bottle. When researching vitamin C products I came across this one. It was the highest rated with all 5 star reviews. It has 20% vitamin C in it.

I want to trust Amazon reviews.

But when I tried to give a negative review of a clothing item, it was rejected. It was just an honest report that the item showed a blouse with sheer sleeves and opaque front but the entire blouse was sheer. Amazon said the review would not be posted. the company refused to accept return and Amazon did not support the customer.

@SilleeMee can you recommend a few that I can look at? Maybe somethng I can find on Amazon? I typed in THD Ascorbate, but when I looked at the ingredients of the products that came up, I didnt see it in the ingredient list...

As always, thanks for your expertise!

Right off the top of my head I can think of two:

Prai Potent-C Power Drops

PTR Potent C Power Serum

I've never tried these but they both contain THD ascorbate. Personally, I don't recommend buying skin care products from Amazon. There are many fake products sold there and I would rather buy directly from the maker's website or from reputable places like HSN,Qvc, Ulta or Dermstore.

I would never buy a product that oxidizes as quickly as vit C from Amazon. I use vit C serum and swear by it but spend a little $ for a quality, FRESH product direct from the manufacture.

I got it for $16.99 on my Amazon subscribe and save monthly delivery. It is just like auto ship... you can adjust it how you need it. I have been using Isomers vitamin C with Ferulic Acid but it will be interesting to rotate these two and see how that goes.
