I really like this product. I am 51, and always looking for an inexpensive fix to the loss of firmness and facial lines that get harder and harder to fight. I am not a fan of plastic surgery, but I like it that this product was created by a plastic surgeon. I have researched products a lot, and liked the ingredients in this one, so decided to give it a try. I use it at night, followed by a firming cream, sometimes switch and use a retinol cream. I also tried it in the morning before makeup, which works well too, as it dries quickly and doesn't cause the makeup to settle into facial lines. I have to say, I noticed a difference right away, particulary in the overall firmness, secondly for the lips and around the lips. For the money, I think this product works a lot better than expensive products I have tried. It's runny, so I use the dropper to apply the product to a cotton ball, then wipe it over my face, particulary the problem areas like the mouth lines and brow lines. For this price, it's worth a try. I am getting ready to reorder it, and possibly will try some of the other Dr. Varon products.

Works well ... comparable to Cellex-C High Potency Serum and almost as good ( many of the same ingredients at a fifth of the price).

Worked very well in fading sun spots and works even better in conjunction with LED therapy.

I had my doubts about this serum, but since it is reasonably-priced and my normal serum was temporarily out, I gave it a try. Within two weeks, my skin is smoother at high-wrinkle areas (the eye creases and mouth laugh lines) and the dark spots were lighter. Now I do put on other oils and creams after I put on this serum. So the interactions of this serum with the other creams can have an accumulated effect. But I didn't have these great results with my old serum. So I will be buying this product again.

This serum is a bit runny and does smell weird. The smell does go away quickly. But I find helpful to allow it to comepletely dry first after applying on the face, then continue with other products.

I use this serum along with my Jason's 45,000 iu vitamin e oil and my face has GREATLY improved - and this comes from someone with the most sensitive of skin, and oily too!

Terrible. Its like putting water on your face and it does not absorb into skin. After it dries you can rub it all off like hard sticky stuff.

For a supposedly well-known plastic surgeon, Dr. Varon is quite the trickster. Vitamin C (in this form) oxidizes very quickly. Depending on the conditions in which it was manufactured, the process could even start before you even receive it in the mail and have a chance to put it on your skin! Once oxidized, it is no longer beneficial. Oxidation is visible by a yellowing of the product. Any company adding a yellow or orange color to the serum is trying to hide it's ineffectiveness. I would do some research before purchasing and only purchase a reputable brand.
