RoC Multi Correxion Revive and Glow Capsules – Review
I’ve bought this product because of the positive reviews online. An ascorbic acid serum is a superb element of any skincare routine. However, I should’ve bought something else instead.

Avon Anew Vitamin C Radiance Maximising Serum – Review
This product is Avon’s response to the hype for vitamin C serums, which started a few years ago. In short, it’s not that exciting.

La Roche-Posay PURE VITAMIN C10 SERUM – Review
This is a new ascorbic acid serum from La Roche-Posay, not their first ascorbic acid product, though the first in a serum form. I’ve been using it for over a month, and I have almost finished the entire bottle. Here are my thoughts. The serum is meant to help with wrinkles, lack of radiance and…
