I have not words to thank you for all this information! I live outside of the USA and you have changed my life and my skin!!! I love you! God bless you!
I've tried several vitamin C serums, including Timeless 10% serum. But I finally found my holy grail vitamin C serum, which is Vanicream vitamin C. I adore it because it's moisturizing, and there's no hotdog odor.
I love the vanicream vitamin c serum! I have very sensitive and dry skin with eczema and rosacea and my skin reacts normal to it. Also, the price is very affordable and the smell is not terrible!
I got hooked on Timeless after watching Hot & Flashy and seeing her skin transform in the last 10 years. Angie is alot older than I am, but her analysis on skin care serums and creams have gotten me the best skin ever
Angie looks great, but she uses a lot more products and devices that her beautiful skin unfortunately cannot be attributed to the particular vitamin C she uses. I also think she has used different brands over the years.
Thank you for the focus on Vitamin C! I have been using it for several years, but at 59, I am adding quite a few other actives to my routine. I am using the timeless 20%, but worry that 1) do I need to lower my skin PH before applying, or worry that my essense is not a low PH that I apply before it? 2) I was using argiriline and lactic acid in my morning routine with it (along with CoQ10, Azelaic acid, urea, peptide eye serum, Niacinamide and ceramide moisturizer before my SPF) and read conflicting reports that I am countermanding the efficacy of my vitamin C with some of these products, or not maintaining a low PH in my skincare. Since Vitamin C is the star of my morning routine, please help! I trust you!
@@liresi8 but she uses retinol and vitamin c in her night routine at the same time! Check her night routine videos Ps: i don't know if its actually retinol or tret version
Can you review Dr Brenner Vitamin C + Ferulic Acid and Vitamin E please? Also I heard from the LabMuffin, Michelle, who is a Chemistry PhD that droppers and “airtight” pumps make essentially no difference in preserving the product longer. She has her own UA-cam channel. Can you give your thoughts 😊?
This Esty has been using Timeless in the morning for years & it has transformed my skin! Always start with the 10% first then graduate to the 20%. Buy it when it goes on sale & keep the extras in the fridge. Holy grail!
That is an excellent vitamin c serum and I used to use the expensive one, Fully switched over to timeless. I get the jumbo bottle and put it all over my body.
Hey! Love your content. You mentioned before that if you're middle eastern and do laser on your face, it can cause hair to grow back thicker. Well, that happened to me. What do I do to get rid of it? 😢 thank you
My skin is sensitive, and I’ve reacted to several. I’m amazed by the medik8 one. It really does live up to the hype. More expensive tho less than many, but so far a bottle has lasted 6 months and I’m halfway through…you only need 6 drops.
@@viola3022 that’s really good to know, that someone else has used it for 2 years! I was wondering Hmm should I try one of the others mentioned here? Self-doubt 🙄 Thanks for the confirmation!
@@AriElfyn Yes I love it, I keep trying different ones because I find it pricey but I keep going back. I use the pure 15. Now it is finished again I am doubting to try the G&G vitamin C serum as I have heard good things about it and its more affodable but I just love the medi8 one
I can't do Timeless. My skin doesn't tolerate it. It burns. I want to love it because of the affordability but I can't. Are there other vitamin c serums you would recommend with out going into the $30.00+ range?
I keep going back between Anfisa AN-dew & skinbetter science alto advanced defense Do you recommend one over the other? I'm 37 & have hyperpigmentation
The rice berry face serum by littliextra is one of my favorite serums I've tried. Its key ingredients feature vit C, ferulic acid, Vitamin E, and black rice water. This smooth and brightening serum efficiently penetrates my skin, acting as a hydrator. It provides instant brightness and glow to my skin; just patting the serum dry on my face does wonders. The serum's consistency is superb, it is not overly sticky and feels lightweight, absorbing rapidly into the skin to leave it soft and smooth. I strongly suggest trying this serum; you'll fall in love with your smooth skin!
@@evelinasaulite4387 that smell is caused by the ferulic acid (which is a supporting and stabilizing ingredient in many vit c products) that has started to oxidize /go bad. Whereas metallic smell is the smell of vitamin c that has started to oxidize / go bad. (Although I can't say at what point the smell /what intensity/ would imply that the product is ineffective. There may still be a big window of time where you can use it or there may not🤷♀️)
I know this comment is non related, but my face reacts to Hyaluronic acid and I don't know why! I usually get acne after using it! Yet its said to be a vereyyy important serum for the face😢😢😢😢
If you go to Japan you have to try vitamin c serum by unlabel lab. It has tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate in it, the packaging is also pump. But don't buy the moisturizer bcs it has essential oil or some kind of like orange oil for as long as I can remember
For ascorbic acid application, im thinking of building a deoxygenated, cold room, inserting an oxygen pipenin my mouth and then applying the ascorbic acid in this room. Would that help it remain stable or is oxygen not the issue here?
We have a vacation trip planned and will be out in the sun most of the day. Besides applying sunscreen frequently and wearing a hat, what else is essential? I am especially concerned about which serums and ingredients should be avoided with sun exposure.
Definetly avoid retinol/retinoids, as they make your skin more sensitive to UV light. Also just generally avoid products that strip your skin and can make it sensitive. A good ingredient to add would be Vitamin C, because it boosts the effects of sunscreen (but I'm sure you already knew that if you are on Dr. Idriss channel much 😉)
I just wrote a comment…I’ve got the same, and retinol had made it react to ANYTHING other than la Roche posay toleraine and similar. But medik8 vitamin C is incredible. My comment is right near the end!
No, it doesn’t have any vitamin c! There are some (not essential) oils that do tho that’s mainly vitamin A and E. eg Rosehip oil - both also antioxidants. I’m trying to remember if raspberry seed oil does. V high in the other 2 also has high sun protection factor!
I have been noticing every time I use Vitamin C, I peel. When I don’t have it on, my face doesn’t peel. I’m currently using CeraVe Vitamin C….it does sting my face, please help
Has anyone tried the Neutrogena’s Vitamin C ampules? 20% pure L - ascorbic acid. Or No. 7’s? Is it possible to use either during the day or will your sunscreen not bind due to the slip of the product? I’m thinking it might be strictly for night time routine. Also, what step in layering do you apply? 🙏💓
I’m thinking I’ve been using a vitamin C serum for a year and it’s never smelled like hotdogs. I’m wondering if it doesn’t smell like that if it was doing nothing this whole time ! 🥹🥹🥲
Love the Ordinary’s powdered ascorbic acid. Since it’s dry, it doesn’t spoil. Mix as you go, and works great…. Plus it’s incredibly inexpensive
This lady right here is dropping gems! 💎💎Thank you, Doctor!

Ooh ty ＾＾
Love it too... already tried Timeless lowest one . don't work for me
Is 5% enough though?
Yep, based on the same issues I'm using Vanicream 1-2 times a day without any issues whatsoever.
TY, I do and have been using Timeless 20% for couple of years now, my skin tolerates it , there are so many products out there I get overwhelmed, 😮❤❤❤
Every product doctors recommend is always hell a expensive in my country.
I have Timeless and have used them before too. I think the smaller bottles are best because its easier to actually use and apply.
Finally, something that's affordable and readily available in official stores in my country! Thanks doc!
Love you content. So overwhelmed with where to start though.
Thank you for these short 👍 and for the budget option.

@@liresi8 but she uses retinol and vitamin c in her night routine at the same time!
Check her night routine videos
Ps: i don't know if its actually retinol or tret version
@@liresi8I think I remember Dr. Idriss saying that A & C can be combined. Paula’s choice has a product with both in it, so I assume it’s effective. ?
Also, have you found any answer to your question? I would like to know also. Thanks 😊
yaasss, I'm about to try this, Dr. Sherene.
Thank you for this info.

How about the melano cc essence
LAAASTTTT NIGHTTTT SHEE SAIDDDD OHHH BABYY I FEELSOO DOWNNN
Do you have any recommendations for Japanese skin care products?
Timeless vitamin c is so good I'm using it in Pak at her recommendation. ❤
Timeless is my go-to. So worth it.
Have you tried the nip and fab one - it's also a pump!
Can you make a video about Simple’s skincare products and which product is suitable for which skin? Btw loving the content🤍 appreciate the effort
Love Timeless, been using the vitamin C 20% for years..
I’m going to vacation with lots of sun is it good to use it before my spf 50 or to wait when I’m come back from vacation?
I started using tatcha vitamin c I love it no hot dog smell but too expensive
The hotdog comment….🤣🤣🤣
While here's me whose face turns dark/dull whenever i use a vitamin c serum. 😫

Do tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate work for sensitive skin? Cassandra Bankson recommended it
is timeless safe for acne prone skin
Would you talk about Astaxanthin for those who can’t tolerate vitamin C?
And is it true that Matrixyl is also good as vitamin C ?
TIA 💜

What about Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate? Do you feel that’s a good form of Vitamin C?
I wish you’d link the product
Agree
Google is free
These are her TikTok videos.
Thats why most of the time there is no description for them
thank you.can we use ascorbic acid typ in morning routin?
One is Timeless and What is the name of your brand!
I would love to know if she likes the vitamin c serum by Revolution, cause it's really cheap and i don't have access to all skin care brands🙈
I always thought i need to quickly close the lid of my dropper of vitamin c after i open it to use...so I was right
What about the garnier vitamin c serum?
Is it better to get vitamin c from your diet than these products?
Timeless leaked and was a mess! Did they re-package their bottles?
What do you think of Rohto Mentholatum CC essence as active vitamin C?

I love it have tried their "super" version for night time. It's affordable and it's in an airless pump✅✅
For me I didn’t like the texture especially underneath the makeup
Can you please list the products in the description? Thank you
I also like timeless. It works well Alhamdulillah
The brand please 🙏
@@sophieabd1802 timeless vitamin c serum 20%
Hahah hot dogs. So true. 😅🌭🌭🌭
Why Hot Dogs I don’t get it 😅 I experienced a metallic smell from the Ordinary Serum and stopped using it therefore, is that what you mean?
I smell metallic as well, but maybe each to their own 🤷♀️
Yes, why hotdogs? 😃😂
@@evelinasaulite4387 that smell is caused by the ferulic acid (which is a supporting and stabilizing ingredient in many vit c products) that has started to oxidize /go bad.

10% smells faintly of campfire smoke
Hi everybody the vitamina C is Timeless brand.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Can I use peptides and vitamin C together?🤔
I feel like im the only person on that doesn't like the timeless. Is there literally nothing else that works well?
I never thought it smelled like hotdogs haha. I thought it smelled like bacon..which I can get with. My other skincare beats that smell anyways 😅
I know this comment is non related, but my face reacts to Hyaluronic acid and I don't know why! I usually get acne after using it! Yet its said to be a vereyyy important serum for the face😢😢😢😢
You don't need to use HA on its own, It is already in so many products states not really needed. She has done several videos on the subject.
can I use the Timeless 10% under eyes?
Can you use vitamin C at night?
when slugging?
So far, I will stick with Timeless 20%❤
What do you do if it irritates your skin. ?

Omg thank you! 🥹🥹❤️
@user-xm9nu5ex8q unfortunately , when it comes to the Japanese program, they tend to not put the percentage in it.
can confirm. smells like hot dog water
Hi Doc❣️what brand are these two at the beginning of the video please? The video goes too fast so can’t see them. 💕🌷
Those are two types of vitamin c formulations not products. The only products she mentions are both by Timeless.
For ascorbic acid application, im thinking of building a deoxygenated, cold room, inserting an oxygen pipenin my mouth and then applying the ascorbic acid in this room.
Would that help it remain stable or is oxygen not the issue here?
What about Avene oxitive serum?
does powder asobic acid last longer? the ordinary makes a powder form
Yes because it doesn’t break down until you mix it with something
What about vitamin C serum - Derma E
im confused which one is better?
Anything for sunken eyes

Just a warning the timeless bottles leak at the bottom of the bottle. I would not buy again 😮
How many drops is the right amount? Does anyone know? 😊

Obagi vitamin c pls
Any of them no sticky??
I tried one of those and it was SUPER irritating. Scared to try their 10%
can I dilute Ascorbic Acid (edible capsule powders) and use it as a spray?
will that be safe?
