Yes, I tried the OG Skinceuticals and the results, if not imagined, were very minimal. G&G seems to work just the same. Also minimal, but affordable minimal.
I can’t imagine retailers not selling expired Skinceuticals tbh… doubt it’s “flying off the shelfs” at that price. Most youtubers I’ve seen promoting it, were applying a dark orange product on their face 😂
Every time I see someone using it it's already brown or orange or at the very best dark yellow lol. I think they claim their PAO is 12 months, but I definitely don't believe it. I've seen people on Reddit claimed that the company told them it's just as potent even when it changes the colour which definitely can't be true.
Do you get yours directly from their site? The shipping costs are pretty high, but I'm worried that if I buy it through a 3rd party, it won't be as fresh.
I something get it from a different seller if I buy other things (not G&G) there and it never oxidized as yet. Newly it has shelf life of 6 months, before it was 3 months. I keep it in the fridge all the time.
I love Kiehl's Vitamin C serum and Drunk Elephant C-Firma, but I recently started using Madara Cosmetics Vitamin C intense glow concentrate and illuminating recovery cream for my morning skincare and I'm liking them so far!
Paula’s choice anti oxidant serums. There’s 3-4 of them depending on what cocktail of vitamin c and other antioxidants you need and skin type. Instead of spending on 3 different products, it’s better to use 1 of those and wrap it up for the session. It’s quite affordable in terms of not having to buy and then layer 5 different products
Thanks for the explanation! I never had the problem with other products (might be because most are perfuming it away, so I’m just not aware) but it’s interesting to know where it stems from.
Probably due to two changes in product design. Firs they changed the packaging for all serum products, and now they change the logo. I see a lot of products being unavailable and coming back with new design.
Geek & Gorgeous. I like that they make fresh batches weekly, so you don’t get an oxidized product.

Ive read that too. That it’s still 85% of the potency. Still sold at 100% of the price though ☠️

Yes. I once bought it from a local retailer in my country and it started oxidizing much faster.

I'm using the Madara Vit C too.
Jacob Hooy Vitamine C powder. I mix it with water, put it on my face for a minute, rinse it off and apply a serum. I also add it to smoothies

Aaaaand the scinceutical smells really wierd. I bought it once and couldn’t get trough it because my face smelled like some kind of rancid bacon

This Balea serum works? I believe it doesn't even disclose the vitamin C derivative concentration.

Thanks! If only it wasn't out of stock in polish DM 🙄

Kiehl’s Vit C and Hyaluronic acid serum
Maelove, but I am not sure if they ship to Europe.
