“love this serum! i use it morning and night. it is a bit on the sticky side when it dries but it’s worth it in my opinion. it’s helped brighten my skin and even out its coloring. i have fair, acne prone skin, so i’m constantly battling dark spots from scars and the sun. plus this serum truly helps my skin hold moisture. goodbye dull, dry skin and hello to a healthy glow!”

after using our glow essence, gently massage or pat 1-2 drops of serum into skin. our serum is suitable for daily use in the am and/or pm. store your serum in a dark, dry place.

Great texture

I love the texture of this serum. It is much thicker and stickier than I expected. I was unsure about the texture at first but it blends into your skin beautifully. I have only used it a few times so far, but have really enjoyed this product.

Love this product!

I have been using this twice a day for a week and already see a difference in my skin. It sits well under makeup I just use less than I do at night. I feel like my skin is hydrated and glowing! Thanks coco for yet another amazing product!

My favorite vitamin C

This has truly been my favorite vitamin c serum I have ever used. I have used others that turn your skin orange and this one never has. It's lightweight, easy to apply, and the perfect serum for glow and evenness. One of my ride or die products.

Frequently asked questions

We upgraded our Vitamin C Serum (now called Vitamin C Glow Serum) by switching to a more stable vitamin C derivative, ascorbyl glucoside. Ascorbyl glucoside similarly functions as an antioxidant that helps skin look brighter and smoother, while staying stable for longer. Additionally, we also added azelaic acid, which helps evens skin tone (especially fade post-breakout marks!) and refines skin. We still have our sea grape caviar and hyaluronic acid ingredients (slightly increased in this formula!) to provide hydrating benefits.

Vitamin C (ascorbyl glucoside) is in the formula at 2%, while azelaic acid is also at 2%. Both actives are used at clinically effective levels, and the usage levels align with our philosophy of "a little bit often". At these ingredient levels, we not only benefit from the antioxidant and brightening properties they boast, but the overall formula is also potentially more suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin types.
