Love the Glowly glass skin affect
I received the Vitamin Illuminating Serum product from BzzAgent in return for an honest review. Using this product in my skin care routine has worked wonders and leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated while giving a nice healthy glow to it.

Underwhelming & Not what I Expected
I really wanted to love this, especially with all the hype around Korean skincare, but unfortunately, this product was pretty mid for me. I didn't notice any significant improvement in my skin's appearance, texture, or overall glow. I was expecting that noticeable "wow" factor, but after using it, ...

I have oily skin and I've spent many summers outside. So I do have some sun marks and discoloration. So far I been using this product and it feels like its working. I do like it. My skin absorbs it well. I like all the natural things it has like the vitamin C. I like that it has hyaluronic acid. That is much appreciated at this age as well. I will continue to use this product and hopefully keep seeing positive results.

Nice Addition to My Skincare Routine!

I really like how lightweight this serum feels on my skin. It has a nice consistency, spreads easily, and doesn't feel heavy or greasy after application. I also appreciate how easily it fits into my skincare routine and layers with my other products. The main reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that I'm still evaluating how much of a difference it makes with dark spots and uneven skin tone. Overall, it's a nice serum, and I'm looking forward to seeing how my skin responds with continued use. I received this product for free from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review.
Great absorption

I added this serum into my evening routine. I really liked how quickly it absorbs and doesn't just sit on the skin. There is no scent to this product despite the name including the word berry. I see that as a plus since when you are using seceral products having them all ha e different smells would be terrible. I did notice a slight brightening of my skin tone after using this serum consistently. I would recommend this for anyone looking to hydrate and brighten their look.

I have been using this serum for a few weeks now and the results are undeniable The combination of the ingredients are doing wonders for my hyperpigmentation spots. I did not experience any stinging or redness like I do with other serums that contain Vitamin C. I felt that it absorbed quickly on my skin and I did not find a sticky after feel like I sometimes do with other serums. Overall, I do find my skin looking more even and radiant. I recommend if you have sensitive skin but still want brightening results.
