I have very dry and sensitive skin. Spending long hours on my laptop and experiencing sleepless nights due to work often cause me under eye dark circles and dark spots from way much sunlight. My skin is quickly effected by the sun since it's so delicate. It's hard for me to find the right skincare stuff. Someone I know suggested liiitlextra rice berry face serum and sunscreen to me. I chose to give them a try, and they really surprised me. I never know how they would work, but actually they did nice for my skin. I'm amazed at how my face glows now and how smooth my skin tone is. They have Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Black rice water, which helped diminish my dark spots, fix my skin tone, and guard it from aging and sun damage. It also keeps my skin hydrated and calm. I've learned something important: if you want good skin, you should moisturize it regularly.
I have been using this riceberry serum for many days and its results are amazing. My face now appears clear and luminous. Additionally, it moisturizes my skin and penetrates my skin rapidly into my skin, giving me a bright and shiny look. I really enjoyed it.
An FYI Tip: I purchased the Timeless Vit C in a 4 oz size when they were having a 40% off sale. I kept the original bottle in the fridge and kept pumping out about a week’s worth into a 1/2 oz cobalt dropper bottle. It lasted almost a year with VERY LITTLE oxidation. 😊
oh I’ll have to try that, I use to do that when it was a dropper bottle. This new container leaks if I don’t tilt it a bit before pressing that button.
I keep my pump in the fridge, no problems so far. Pumping it into a different container/bottle would expose it, the whole purpose of the pump is to avoid exposure.
Just have to say, you are an inspiration- you’ve never looked better and I’ve been watching your channel for nearly ten years. Your skin is more firm today, which is truly amazing. Genetics play a role, for sure, but you’ve combined products, exercise and diet to achieve great results - all while doing your own research. Way to go!
I would love to see this turned into a mini series...a focused video on each active in your routine...eg best HA, best facial oil, best lactic acid, etc!
Good morning, Angie. I'm a Timeless Vitamin C serum lover for life, thanks to you. It's incredible. I don't notice any offense smell. Unless you say otherwise, I won't stop using it! It's a great dupe for the way more expensive Skinceuticals brand. I've seen major changes in the last 3 or 4 years since I've been using the Timeless Vitamin C. Thank you once again. Have a great day❣🤗❤
I ordered Agency and I was wondering how long the company takes to confirm your order. I have called them and texted them. My bank account has been debited but I have heard nothing. I ordered about a week ago. I have ordered a lot of the products you recommended and I have either received them already or they have sent me an email to confirm my order!
Thank you SO much for mentioning the smell. I just got my Timeless Vit C and I thought it went bad cuz the smell was so weird! glad to know it just means I got the 'Good Stuff' :)
I love the Ordinary vitamin C 23% Squalene serum. After I used it a few times the stinging went away. It doesn’t sting for me anymore. The inexpensive price allows me to afford vitamin C skincare in my routine. If it wasn’t for The Ordinary low price range, I wouldn’t have any skincare products
Thanks for the comprehensive video! I love Timeless but as I've aged, I am increasingly sensitive in the winter. I've switched to the Timeless 10% in winter, and use every other day. In summer, I use the 20% when my skin is less sensitive. I like that Timeless has changed their bottles, the new design is much better, no leakage.
I am am a fan of the Timeless. I used it with the old packaging and drifted away because it degraded too quickly. When I saw the new packaging, I tried again. I am completely impressed. I don't know why manufacturers aren't going with the airless pump either.
Thank you for this comment! I switched away from Timeless bc it degraded before I could use even half of it!!! I've been loving the Ordinary's suspension as it doesn't degrade at all... but it smells bad sometimes hahah. So I might have to check out the new packaging!
I’ve been using the Timeless vit C since I started watching you 5 or 6 years now. I use most of the Timeless products. Love them. Also FYI they have a lot of holiday sales where you can get usually 40% off. I always wait till their sale to buy my products.
I’ve been using the Timeless vitamin C serum for the last two years ( which is when I discovered you on UA-cam) and I absolutely love what it has done for my skin. My skin is much smoother, firmer and brighter now that I’m using this product! I have given Timeless vitamin C to all my sisters and friends, who have commented on how great my skin looks, and they all love it too. It really works!! Thank you Angie 😃
I normally use their 23% Vitamin C. I’ve been really wanting to try the 30%, but I read a lot of bad reviews about it. Lots of people said it gave them acne and it didn’t soak into the skin very well. Lots of people said because of the silicone it just sat on top of their skin. Does it soak into your skin well?
@@EnvyBlu it works for me , you have to try it and go slow , it does tingle the skin at first …. Then it becomes used to it . Try to mix it with a moisturizer or a serum then put on your Spf for the day …or a lot of people use it at night . I use in the am right on the spots I want to lighten…. First step …. A little goes a long way . Good luck ;)
Cellex-C is the best. My skin is bouncy at 49. Really reversed damage in a truly meaningful way. No one talks too much about it because it is made in Canada and they do not go through influencers, but it is actually the same pH as Skinceuticals because it was developed by the same scientist. I hesitate to even tell people about it because it is cheaper than skinceuticals c e ferulic but I don't want them to raise the price! I wasted time on the other brands!
I started using Timeless after I saw you recommend it & I keep it in the refrigerator! I appreciate you helping us pick the best products & being so honest with us about how you feel about them! Thank you!🥰
Timeless stays so well in the fridge, I wait til they have a sale and usually pick up 3 bottles (along with their CoQ10 and their B5 serums) and I'm set for several months. They stay as fresh as the day I received them when I refrigerate them.
Hi Angie, I love the timeless C serum. I used it for a long time because of your recommendation. The problem I had with the new packaging is that it started to leak. I called them and they were very good and sent me a new one. But even the new one leaked after a few day. I wish they tackle the problem so I can buy it again. Thank you for all your hard work!
@sanaa B. The same for me! Both containers I’ve had have leaked. I truly liked the bottle and wish they would change back, because I really like the Timeless serum the best. The serum in the last order I bought from Target of the half ounce was already yellow when I started using it, along with leaking. Unsure if the container was old, or if it’s not truly airless. If I do go back to Timeless I guess I’ll go back to ordering directly from them. In the past I have decanted the whole container into two small deep blue glass bottles. I keep one in the fridge while I use up the first half. I am going to try the Maelove to see if I like it.
Same here, I lost more than 1/2 a bottle while on vacation, and that was the second time that happened. Do not like the new packaging, plus it’s hard to tell how much you have left. I switched to Purador that I purchased from Amazon, so far so good.
The last two bottles I received leaked on the bottom so I have had to store them upside down in the fridge. I have been buying this for years with no issues until now.
Great one in the UK is the Garden of Wisdom Vitamin C 23% + ferulic acid. 30ml for £10. Has a couple of added ingredients to thicken the texture a bit and uses Optiphen instead of Vit E as the preservative. We can’t get Timeless in UK and EU anymore, so this has been a great find - and it comes in an airless pump bottle!
Yes, Timeless is not available in Europe any more so me too I'm using the Garden of Wisdom vitamin c serum. Having tried several vitamin c serums, this GOW has become my favourite. Great line of products they have. Greetings from Marrakech in Morocco, Sibylle Sbihi
I wish the GoW worked well on me but noticed no difference. I'd love to go back to Timeless but don't know why it's discontinued here in the UK or for how long :(
I, too, have been using Timeless since I started watching you about 7 years ago. Totally off topic but I love Argereline serum or Botox in a bottle. Totally got rid of my 11s and crows feet! I'm so glad this was about Vitamin C and no more Nordies sales! I am trying to save money to redo my Primary bathroom! LoL!! Have a great day Angie!
TIMELESS is the G.O.A.T. I wait for the 40% or 50% sale (few time a year) and grab the 4oz one. I bought dark glass spray bottles from Amazon and separate the product into each one. I place them in the back of my fridge and it lasts ALLLL year. 😎
Angie, I agree with you about the Ordinary Vitamin C serum. I couldn’t stand the grittiness of it. After I finished the tube, I bought the Timeless serum and love it.
I finally broke down and got a small Clinique Take The Day Off per your recommendation and girl! I cannot believe it really took off every particle of mascara on my eyes!!!! I am sold! I have dry skin so I don't even need a 2nd cleanse so it's worth the extra splurge, thanks!!!!
So appreciative of everything I’ve learned from you! You never steer us wrong … sharing info with my daughter and daughter in law’s. Can’t thank you enough! Love the timeless vitamin C!
I have tried the Timeless and Maelove (per your recommendations about a year ago). I always come back to the Timeless. I must be allergic to one of the botanicals or something in Maelove, but once I get back on Timeless, my skin clears right up! Thanks for the extensive research you have done and continue to do on all skincare products! (FYI...Timeless has sales all the time, so I order directly from them. When ordering through Amazon, I got a bad bottle on two occasions.....I was able to return them but was out of vitamin C until Timeless could get me my shipment!)
Great video! I’m using the Pura D’or that you talked about in a video awhile back. I know the smell bothered you but it dissipates quickly for me AND it’s only $15!
I have used the Timeless Serum for about 4 years now because of you Angie, and let me tell you!!! My skin is amazing! I had a very bad sun spot on my face and also after I was pregnant with my son my face was discolored and this serum has just made my skin so awesome! I hightly recomment this serum, it's not expensive and it's amazing!!!!!!!
With the heat we’ve been having in Georgia, I have switched up my night routine to my day routine. I wash my face, apply the ordinary argireline solution, vitamin c and co Q 10 serums from timeless then moisturizer. Since I workout in the mornings in a CrossFit gym the doors are open and it is hot! I put on sunscreen, reapply as needed until I get home and can shower. I’m not washing all the products down the drain nor washing my face too often. It has been working for me.
Have been using Timeless for a couple years since subscribing to your channel, love it. Also prefer the airless pump, I’ve knocked over dropper bottles more than once .. and there goes all your product!
I recently had surgery on my right hand and had to apply my Timeless C with one hand. I used a small glass dish to dispense, then used my fingers to apply it. I found that I could use less product as it wasn’t escaping between my fingers. And always keep it in the fridge. It will degrade even in the airless dispenser at room temp.
Hi Angie! I started using Timeless vitamin c three months ago. I love it. I can see the difference in my skin. I love it. Thank you so much for your recommendations. ❤️❤️❤️
Love the Timeless Vitamin C! I think they also make a 10% for newbies if the 20% is too much to start. Thanks for doing all the hard work for us, Angie!
They DO make a 10% vit C with Vitamin E and ferulic acid formula and it's perfect because it is the same watery, easily absorbed liquid as the 20%. I love Timeless and have used it for years on Angie's recommendation. Both formulations are great!
Thank you. I have been watching for a couple of days now and I really appreciate all your information. I will start with a few of your recommendations and then add to my day and night routine. Hope I haven’t waited too long. But, better late than not at all. Thank you again.
❤️❤️❤️😁👌🏻Thank you, Angie! I’ve been using Timeless for 3 months now and I see the difference in my skin. It’s brighter and fresh looking. I use it twice a day with my skin routine. Thank you sooo much again! 🌺🌺🌺
Did not know there were two types of vitamin c products. I’ve been using The Ordinary brand and I found it to be gritty, as you did. Didn’t know what else to use until this video. I bought some Timeless and have used it two days so far. I love this product. It goes on so much nicer than The Ordinary. Thanks for the explanation of the types of vitamin C products. I’m definitely a convert to Timeless.
Wowzers your whole-body complexion looks incredible! That is a twenty something neck, nowhere near a Hot and Flashy one! As a long time follower, I realize it has been a sensitivity struggle, your tenacity payed off! Hope to learn more! I began my Timeless Vit C years and years ago after your suggestion. I can tell instantly I am reaping benefits. Not sure if it changes or corrects the PH after my morning cleanse? but if I forget, nothing I apply seems to work. Brighter, less textured and prepped for skincare leaves me a Timeless Convert for life! If I had to make one pick beyond SPF and Tretinoin, it would be Timeless Vit C. Thanks Angie! XO ~ "C Ya"
Ty so much for reviewing budget friendly options. I am on a mission to find a vitamin C serum that's affordable and works for me. After watching your vid I immediately ordered the Timeless serum 😁 They're having a sale today & tomorrow 50% off for the 1 oz Vitamin C serums‼️ I hope the product works for me. If not, I'll try the Maelove serum u talked about.
Great video with lots of options. I will wait for a sale on the Timeless Vitamin C! I have seen some you tube dermatologists recommend the Timeless too. You look great in orange by the way!
I love timeless. I always grab a 4oz bottle during holiday sales and it usually works out that you can get 30-40% off if you do it that way every time. Their CoQ10 and peptide serums are beautiful too.
Angie, I thank you so much for introducing me to the Timeless Vitamin C & Ferrulic acid product. I’ve used it nearly every day for several years now and I love it!! Some days, that plus sunscreen is all I have time to do for my face, and I feel like it does wonders for me. 💜
You introduced me to the Timeless serum a couple years ago, and I haven't looked back since then. My skin has greatly improved in all aspects! Thank you Angie!
I've tried many Vit C serums, including four of those you've reviewed here (Timeless, Maelove, L'Oreal, The Ordinary) as well as the Expensive One. The Expensive One, imo, is hands down the best, but at that price I made it my mission to find a dupe. I think I have. It's SeoulCeuticals Day Glow Serum. It's fabulous. $20 on the company website. I think it's also sold on amazon and some K-Beauty sites but I always buy on the official company webiste. I am perplexed as to why this product isn't being reviewed more. Can't speak for the other SeoulCeuticals products but I swear by this one. For reference, I'm 68, use tretinoin daily and this Vit C daily.
You are such an inspiration. I can honestly say that you single-handedly have changed my skin care routine, of which I didn't have one before, of taking care of my skin and apying makeup. I've never been one of those girls that knew much about makeup or hair, but watching your videos and how good you are at what you do, has inspired me to start my own makeup and skin care routine. So thank you, Angie!! I do have one question, do you have any products that you recommend for those little red veins that people get around their nose (mainly). I'm not sure if that's rosacea or not, but I just started getting them recently and I HATE them!!! Or if you've made a video on that before, can you post the link in a comment? Thank you for all of your advice and hard work, have a fabulous morning!
Hi Shana! I'm so happy my videos helped you develop a skincare routine!! Those little red veins are annoying but there's not much that can be done about them topically except to cover them with makeup. The only thing that can get rid of them is a professional treatment with a pulsed dye laser or the YAG laser.
Started Timeless vitamin c serum from watching your channel. Had tried LaRoche Posay and Naturium never knowing it was supposed to be clear, which they weren't. Really like the Timeless. Don't notice a smell. Got the one oz. At Target for $20. Great price. Store it in the fridge.
I use the Pura d'Or. I don't find it tacky at all. It's rather watery even though there's no water in it, and I hardly notice the scent. So odd how our perceptions are so off from each other. Just goes to show, you just have to try things for yourself to really know if it's right for you.
Thank you. I started watching you four years ago, and you are my go to source for skincare info. I alternate between Timeless and Maelove depending on my mood when I reorder. I always, always check your videos before trying any new skincare!
I pulled out a bottle of the Timeless that I forgot I had. It was hidden in my fridge! 😆 So, I always date mark my products when I get them and this one was dated 8/22/2020. I opened it and pumped it out. It was perfectly clear with no oxidation or smell. Amazing! I've been using it for 2 weeks and the tincture is still clear and it's applying beautifully was always. Goes to show you what good packaging and refrigeration can do.
I have the same situation but my immediate thoughts didn't go to that of "good packaging", but what actual ingredients are actually in the bottle they sent me. Is it mostly water...? I mean after a couple of years in the fridge there should have been some color change I would 🤔
@@DeeDee-rr3sn I would hope it would be mostly water or it would burn your face off! Lol. I would think that air tight, sealed, protected from light , refrigerated tincture should stay stable. I don't this packaging had any air inside it. But, I'm no chemist.
Hi Angie I’m a new subscriber of yours but I’m from the U.K. I was wondering what u would recommend to replace maelove the hydrator as we cannot get this in the U.K. thank you Maria💕💕💕
Angie, I love your content and you look especially beautiful today. I’d like to suggest a microphone for better sound quality. Keep up the good work for us 50+.
THRILLED to see the Dr Brenner on your list! I stumbled across it in a deep dive a few months ago and have used it ever since (after a way less than impressive trial set of bioassance which did nothing). I'm so happy with it! I use it first, then a little more hyaluronic, my beloved Vichy mineral 89, then a tad of a facial rose oil on my more dry bits, topped off with ny favorite French drugstore cream Embryolisse at night. This simple inexpensive routine has made my 60 yr old face verrrrrry happy! I bought the Babo sunscreen after you reviewed it, LOVING that so much. Thanks Angie, your keeping me hot looking this summer ( and I have an 8 yr old girl of my own to chase after and swim with)...couldn't live without you this summer especially!!!
Watching while sick. Angie you have saved me a lot of money! Love Timeless I do get compliments on my skin. At 56 I will take it LoL. Thanks for educating all of us! Thanks Angie Jennifer 🌷🤗🌼🌸
I love the Geek & Gorgeous C Glow 12.50 euros/ dollars. 15% ascorbic acid. It is fairly easy to get the free shipping from Hungary by ordering a couple of these along with a couple of their other products. You can get a couple of friends on board and it is even easier to get the free shipping.
@@AngieHotandFlashy I'm from Europe, and love the Geek & Gorgeous C Glow. I'm so looking forward to hearing your thoughts about ut. Thanks for yet another great video, as always!
I’m in the UK and just can’t get hold of Timeless. I’ve tried the Garden of Wisdom one and it was ok but have switched to Geek and Gorgeous now and love it. It’s very affordable and their shipping from Hungary to the UK is excellent (2 days). I also use their 101 A Game (retinal) and love it too (they have two different strengths), also very affordable.
I have been using Geek & Gorgeous products for the last couple of months and my skin has improved so much. Both C Glow and A Game have made such a huge difference in my skin that I just can't look at any other products anymore :).
Thank you for the video! I've been using Timeless vitamin C every other day for 2 months. My skin still can't get used to it. Is Dr. Brenner more gentle on the skin? If I use it at night, will I still get the antioxidant property? TX
Thank you! I'm near the end of my Timeless Vit. C and was curious about other alternatives even though I love it! BTW, the color you are wearing in this video is absolutely stunning on you!
I've been using the Timeless Vitamin C since you turned me onto it. I've been using it for about 6 years now, and WOW. Proof that quality ingredients + consistency works!! I also wonder if it would help absorbtion if you spritz your face with water before applying the no water C formulas?
Timeless also makes a 10% vitamin C serum as well. Dr. Brenner’s formula gave me perioral dermititis. I’m looking at 12 weeks of meds to try to get rid of it. Use with caution!
It is interesting how different our perceptions are : I love Pura D’or ( that I heard here from you ) and I don’t sent a bad smell . I love it !!! Thank you for showing it before 🙏🏻✨🌹
Skinsceuticals rep told me the funky smell actually comes from the ferulic acid-not the Vit C. I have found that there is something special about their formulation but jeez it's too pricy so I alternate with the Timeless. I have also had an issue with my Timeless oxidizing(in the new pump bottle) when I ordered from Target. Will stick with ordering direct from Timeless.
I actually make my own solution of water based L-Ascorbic acid at 20% with ferulic acid, HA, vitamin E, and Pycnogenol to keep it at its peak. I make about 200ml and then freeze it, only using 50mL at a time so it stays fresh. Very easy and very budget friendly.
Angie, thank you for the video! If you haven't done so already, I'd love to know your opinion on the Beauty Pie vitamin C products, especially the capsules. Thanks!
@hotandflashy love your work, thank you for this service! Question- I have heard in other sources that L ascorbic can be active on the face for about 72h!? What are your thoughts on using it every couple to every other day and still seeing benefits? I use timeless 20% for over a year, ty to you!! ☀️ 😃
I love the Maelove and I like that I can get a discount when I order a bundle of the serums I use from them. I use several of their products. I think I am going to decant my next bottle into a airless pump since they sell them on Amazon.
Another great affordable water-based option is Skin Deva 20% Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) + E with ferulic acid. It's cruelty free, vegan, and available on Amazon.
@@VT0412i I'm sorry but I'm really not sure, as I don't have very sensitive skin myself. If you read through product reviews, you may find some helpful information.
Those are some deals! I just hope people don't make the same mistake w Vit C serum as I did, even a 20 minute drive without sunscreen will ruin your face w a sunburn! I have sensitive skin born w dermatographism so vitamin C really puffs up my skin like I had filler! It looked like too much filler until after I was 45, now Vit C serum is absolutely amazing but I have to be careful during the Summer.

oh I’ll have to try that, I use to do that when it was a dropper bottle. This new container leaks if I don’t tilt it a bit before pressing that button.
That’s great idea 💡
I keep my pump in the fridge, no problems so far. Pumping it into a different container/bottle would expose it, the whole purpose of the pump is to avoid exposure.

I hesitate to even tell people about it because it is cheaper than skinceuticals c e ferulic but I don't want them to raise the price! I wasted time on the other brands!
I use Dr. Brenner's vitamin C, it doesn't burn my face, for some reason the Timeless one does. I'm glad to hear it passes your test too!
I started using Timeless after I saw you recommend it & I keep it in the refrigerator! I appreciate you helping us pick the best products & being so honest with us about how you feel about them! Thank you!🥰
I keep mine in the fridge too.
Ditto!
Timeless stays so well in the fridge, I wait til they have a sale and usually pick up 3 bottles (along with their CoQ10 and their B5 serums) and I'm set for several months. They stay as fresh as the day I received them when I refrigerate them.
Love timeless 4 oz size. i keep in my refrigerator and haven't had any problems with leaking.
Hi Angie, I love the timeless C serum. I used it for a long time because of your recommendation. The problem I had with the new packaging is that it started to leak. I called them and they were very good and sent me a new one. But even the new one leaked after a few day. I wish they tackle the problem so I can buy it again. Thank you for all your hard work!
@sanaa B. The same for me! Both containers I’ve had have leaked. I truly liked the bottle and wish they would change back, because I really like the Timeless serum the best. The serum in the last order I bought from Target of the half ounce was already yellow when I started using it, along with leaking. Unsure if the container was old, or if it’s not truly airless. If I do go back to Timeless I guess I’ll go back to ordering directly from them. In the past I have decanted the whole container into two small deep blue glass bottles. I keep one in the fridge while I use up the first half. I am going to try the Maelove to see if I like it.
I had the same problem.
Same here, I lost more than 1/2 a bottle while on vacation, and that was the second time that happened. Do not like the new packaging, plus it’s hard to tell how much you have left. I switched to Purador that I purchased from Amazon, so far so good.
The last two bottles I received leaked on the bottom so I have had to store them upside down in the fridge. I have been buying this for years with no issues until now.
@@leel4506 yes, the container stained the countertop. Tried upside down and then it leaked into the cap. Frustrating.
Great one in the UK is the Garden of Wisdom Vitamin C 23% + ferulic acid. 30ml for £10. Has a couple of added ingredients to thicken the texture a bit and uses Optiphen instead of Vit E as the preservative. We can’t get Timeless in UK and EU anymore, so this has been a great find - and it comes in an airless pump bottle!
Sounds awesome!
Yes, Timeless is not available in Europe any more so me too I'm using the Garden of Wisdom vitamin c serum. Having tried several vitamin c serums, this GOW has become my favourite. Great line of products they have. Greetings from Marrakech in Morocco, Sibylle Sbihi
I wish the GoW worked well on me but noticed no difference. I'd love to go back to Timeless but don't know why it's discontinued here in the UK or for how long :(
Oh the GoW is available at Victoria Health btw.. Great in-house formulating chemist and GoW is a whole in-house line.
@@halfamo2422 it seems that its because of one of the ingredients...
I've been using the Dr. Brenner vitamin C serum for a few years now. Love it! 😊
I, too, have been using Timeless since I started watching you about 7 years ago. Totally off topic but I love Argereline serum or Botox in a bottle. Totally got rid of my 11s and crows feet! I'm so glad this was about Vitamin C and no more Nordies sales! I am trying to save money to redo my Primary bathroom! LoL!! Have a great day Angie!
Does Timeless have a Argereline serum? I am trying The Ordinary but not noticing much of a difference yet.
@@SP-lm1pk no. But it took a out 4-6 months. I use it every morning.
@@latherandlace What brand do you use?
@@annsmith5825 of Vitamin C or Argereline? I use Timeless Vit C and The Ordinary for Argereline! Hope that helps!
The timeless 10% vitamin C is amazing! Very gentle on the skin. Thanks for recommending the brand!
I just ordered the 10% do u like it as much as stronger version?
Thank you for the updated Vit. C video. The color of that blouse looks great on you. Makes your eyes really pop :)
I’ve been using Timeless for over a year now, thanks to Angie’s recommendation, and love it!
TIMELESS is the G.O.A.T. I wait for the 40% or 50% sale (few time a year) and grab the 4oz one. I bought dark glass spray bottles from Amazon and separate the product into each one. I place them in the back of my fridge and it lasts ALLLL year. 😎
@@saleek9481 The Timeless website! They’re terrific!
What bottles do you buy?
Angie, I agree with you about the Ordinary Vitamin C serum. I couldn’t stand the grittiness of it. After I finished the tube, I bought the Timeless serum and love it.
I finally broke down and got a small Clinique Take The Day Off per your recommendation and girl! I cannot believe it really took off every particle of mascara on my eyes!!!! I am sold! I have dry skin so I don't even need a 2nd cleanse so it's worth the extra splurge, thanks!!!!
So. happy you tried & loved the Clinique Balm!! It's so good!!
FYI Costco is selling Clinique cleansing balm. Great price! At least the last time I was there which was about a week ago.
Pamela what!!?? Thanks!!!
@@tracywofford3384 sure! It’s online too
I thinks Sams club is selling it too!
I’ve used other Vitamin C serums, but Maelove Glow Maker is perfect for my skin. LOVE IT!!
So appreciative of everything I’ve learned from you! You never steer us wrong … sharing info with my daughter and daughter in law’s. Can’t thank you enough! Love the timeless vitamin C!
That is awesome!
I have been using the Dr. Brenners C for a couple of years and love it!
Me too, it really works well 👍🏼
I have tried the Timeless and Maelove (per your recommendations about a year ago). I always come back to the Timeless. I must be allergic to one of the botanicals or something in Maelove, but once I get back on Timeless, my skin clears right up! Thanks for the extensive research you have done and continue to do on all skincare products! (FYI...Timeless has sales all the time, so I order directly from them. When ordering through Amazon, I got a bad bottle on two occasions.....I was able to return them but was out of vitamin C until Timeless could get me my shipment!)
That must be what happened to me. Sending back my 2nd tomorrow. I will go the the actual site and order. Thanks for sharing
Great video! I’m using the Pura D’or that you talked about in a video awhile back. I know the smell bothered you but it dissipates quickly for me AND it’s only $15!
I have used the Timeless Serum for about 4 years now because of you Angie, and let me tell you!!! My skin is amazing! I had a very bad sun spot on my face and also after I was pregnant with my son my face was discolored and this serum has just made my skin so awesome! I hightly recomment this serum, it's not expensive and it's amazing!!!!!!!
Great to hear!!
With the heat we’ve been having in Georgia, I have switched up my night routine to my day routine. I wash my face, apply the ordinary argireline solution, vitamin c and co Q 10 serums from timeless then moisturizer. Since I workout in the mornings in a CrossFit gym the doors are open and it is hot! I put on sunscreen, reapply as needed until I get home and can shower. I’m not washing all the products down the drain nor washing my face too often. It has been working for me.
Have been using Timeless for a couple years since subscribing to your channel, love it. Also prefer the airless pump, I’ve knocked over dropper bottles more than once .. and there goes all your product!
I recently had surgery on my right hand and had to apply my Timeless C with one hand. I used a small glass dish to dispense, then used my fingers to apply it. I found that I could use less product as it wasn’t escaping between my fingers. And always keep it in the fridge. It will degrade even in the airless dispenser at room temp.
I’ve been using Timeless since I found your channel and you recommended it…years and I love it! Will continue to use it! Thanks Angie! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Very informative video, Angie. I never hear anyone talk about skin care with as much authority (and knowledge!) the way you do!
Hi Angie! I started using Timeless vitamin c three months ago. I love it. I can see the difference in my skin. I love it. Thank you so much for your recommendations. ❤️❤️❤️
I have used the Timeless Vit C at your recommendation for years. I love it.
Love the Timeless Vitamin C! I think they also make a 10% for newbies if the 20% is too much to start. Thanks for doing all the hard work for us, Angie!
They DO make a 10% vit C with Vitamin E and ferulic acid formula and it's perfect because it is the same watery, easily absorbed liquid as the 20%. I love Timeless and have used it for years on Angie's recommendation. Both formulations are great!
I use Maelove the glow maker, it is amazing!
Hands down my favorite is the Timeless . I’ve been using it ever since I found your channel about 2 years ago ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you. I have been watching for a couple of days now and I really appreciate all your information. I will start with a few of your recommendations and then add to my day and night routine. Hope I haven’t waited too long. But, better late than not at all. Thank you again.
❤️❤️❤️😁👌🏻Thank you, Angie! I’ve been using Timeless for 3 months now and I see the difference in my skin. It’s brighter and fresh looking. I use it twice a day with my skin routine. Thank you sooo much again! 🌺🌺🌺
Wonderful!
I use the Timeless 10%. It’s all my sensitive skin can handle, and it’s great.
The timeless one is awesome!!! I've tried it thanks to you and now I'm hooked 😍take care ❤ big kiss from France
I use Timeless thanks to your recommendation & love it so much!!
Did not know there were two types of vitamin c products. I’ve been using The Ordinary brand and I found it to be gritty, as you did. Didn’t know what else to use until this video. I bought some Timeless and have used it two days so far. I love this product. It goes on so much nicer than The Ordinary. Thanks for the explanation of the types of vitamin C products. I’m definitely a convert to Timeless.
Wowzers your whole-body complexion looks incredible! That is a twenty something neck, nowhere near a Hot and Flashy one! As a long time follower, I realize it has been a sensitivity struggle, your tenacity payed off! Hope to learn more! I began my Timeless Vit C years and years ago after your suggestion. I can tell instantly I am reaping benefits. Not sure if it changes or corrects the PH after my morning cleanse? but if I forget, nothing I apply seems to work. Brighter, less textured and prepped for skincare leaves me a Timeless Convert for life! If I had to make one pick beyond SPF and Tretinoin, it would be Timeless Vit C. Thanks Angie! XO ~ "C Ya"
I am a Timeless Vitamin C lover thanks to you Angie!!! I have been using it for well over a year and will continue to purchase!!
Ty so much for reviewing budget friendly options. I am on a mission to find a vitamin C serum that's affordable and works for me. After watching your vid I immediately ordered the Timeless serum 😁 They're having a sale today & tomorrow 50% off for the 1 oz Vitamin C serums‼️ I hope the product works for me. If not, I'll try the Maelove serum u talked about.
Great video with lots of options. I will wait for a sale on the Timeless Vitamin C! I have seen some you tube dermatologists recommend the Timeless too. You look great in orange by the way!
I love timeless. I always grab a 4oz bottle during holiday sales and it usually works out that you can get 30-40% off if you do it that way every time. Their CoQ10 and peptide serums are beautiful too.
Angie, I thank you so much for introducing me to the Timeless Vitamin C & Ferrulic acid product. I’ve used it nearly every day for several years now and I love it!! Some days, that plus sunscreen is all I have time to do for my face, and I feel like it does wonders for me. 💜
Thanks Angie for sharing this information. I started using timeless after watching your channel a few years now. God bless.
You introduced me to the Timeless serum a couple years ago, and I haven't looked back since then. My skin has greatly improved in all aspects! Thank you Angie!
I've tried many Vit C serums, including four of those you've reviewed here (Timeless, Maelove, L'Oreal, The Ordinary) as well as the Expensive One. The Expensive One, imo, is hands down the best, but at that price I made it my mission to find a dupe. I think I have. It's SeoulCeuticals Day Glow Serum. It's fabulous. $20 on the company website. I think it's also sold on amazon and some K-Beauty sites but I always buy on the official company webiste. I am perplexed as to why this product isn't being reviewed more. Can't speak for the other SeoulCeuticals products but I swear by this one. For reference, I'm 68, use tretinoin daily and this Vit C daily.
Will Vitamin C help with dry skin on legs and celulite? Love you honesty and videos. Thank you.
You are such an inspiration. I can honestly say that you single-handedly have changed my skin care routine, of which I didn't have one before, of taking care of my skin and apying makeup. I've never been one of those girls that knew much about makeup or hair, but watching your videos and how good you are at what you do, has inspired me to start my own makeup and skin care routine. So thank you, Angie!! I do have one question, do you have any products that you recommend for those little red veins that people get around their nose (mainly). I'm not sure if that's rosacea or not, but I just started getting them recently and I HATE them!!! Or if you've made a video on that before, can you post the link in a comment? Thank you for all of your advice and hard work, have a fabulous morning!
The only way to get rid of those little red veins is by laser treatment at a Derms office..
Hi Shana! I'm so happy my videos helped you develop a skincare routine!! Those little red veins are annoying but there's not much that can be done about them topically except to cover them with makeup. The only thing that can get rid of them is a professional treatment with a pulsed dye laser or the YAG laser.
Thank you so much for all your research ❤️❤️ I have just started with the timeless serum 🤩
Started Timeless vitamin c serum from watching your channel. Had tried LaRoche Posay and Naturium never knowing it was supposed to be clear, which they weren't. Really like the Timeless. Don't notice a smell. Got the one oz. At Target for $20. Great price. Store it in the fridge.
I use the Pura d'Or. I don't find it tacky at all. It's rather watery even though there's no water in it, and I hardly notice the scent. So odd how our perceptions are so off from each other. Just goes to show, you just have to try things for yourself to really know if it's right for you.
Thank you. I started watching you four years ago, and you are my go to source for skincare info. I alternate between Timeless and Maelove depending on my mood when I reorder.
I always, always check your videos before trying any new skincare!
Timeless fan because of you! I ❤️❤️❤️!
I pulled out a bottle of the Timeless that I forgot I had. It was hidden in my fridge! 😆 So, I always date mark my products when I get them and this one was dated 8/22/2020. I opened it and pumped it out. It was perfectly clear with no oxidation or smell. Amazing! I've been using it for 2 weeks and the tincture is still clear and it's applying beautifully was always. Goes to show you what good packaging and refrigeration can do.
I have the same situation but my immediate thoughts didn't go to that of "good packaging", but what actual ingredients are actually in the bottle they sent me. Is it mostly water...? I mean after a couple of years in the fridge there should have been some color change I would 🤔
@@DeeDee-rr3sn I would hope it would be mostly water or it would burn your face off! Lol. I would think that air tight, sealed, protected from light , refrigerated tincture should stay stable. I don't this packaging had any air inside it. But, I'm no chemist.
Hi Angie I’m a new subscriber of yours but I’m from the U.K. I was wondering what u would recommend to replace maelove the hydrator as we cannot get this in the U.K. thank you
Maria💕💕💕
Angie, I love your content and you look especially beautiful today. I’d like to suggest a microphone for better sound quality. Keep up the good work for us 50+.
THRILLED to see the Dr Brenner on your list! I stumbled across it in a deep dive a few months ago and have used it ever since (after a way less than impressive trial set of bioassance which did nothing). I'm so happy with it! I use it first, then a little more hyaluronic, my beloved Vichy mineral 89, then a tad of a facial rose oil on my more dry bits, topped off with ny favorite French drugstore cream Embryolisse at night. This simple inexpensive routine has made my 60 yr old face verrrrrry happy! I bought the Babo sunscreen after you reviewed it, LOVING that so much. Thanks Angie, your keeping me hot looking this summer ( and I have an 8 yr old girl of my own to chase after and swim with)...couldn't live without you this summer especially!!!
Just ordered Timeless Vit. C. Thanks for the discount code.
I’d love to see todays makeup application. So fresh, youthful, and soft!!!
Watching while sick. Angie you have saved me a lot of money! Love Timeless I do get compliments on my skin. At 56 I will take it LoL. Thanks for educating all of us! Thanks Angie Jennifer 🌷🤗🌼🌸
Hope you're feeling better soon Jennifer! 💜
@@AngieHotandFlashy thanks each day a little better!
I love the Geek & Gorgeous C Glow 12.50 euros/ dollars. 15% ascorbic acid. It is fairly easy to get the free shipping from Hungary by ordering a couple of these along with a couple of their other products. You can get a couple of friends on board and it is even easier to get the free shipping.
Just ordered some to try!
@@AngieHotandFlashy I'm from Europe, and love the Geek & Gorgeous C Glow. I'm so looking forward to hearing your thoughts about ut. Thanks for yet another great video, as always!
I’m in the UK and just can’t get hold of Timeless. I’ve tried the Garden of Wisdom one and it was ok but have switched to Geek and Gorgeous now and love it. It’s very affordable and their shipping from Hungary to the UK is excellent (2 days). I also use their 101 A Game (retinal) and love it too (they have two different strengths), also very affordable.
I have been using Geek & Gorgeous products for the last couple of months and my skin has improved so much. Both C Glow and A Game have made such a huge difference in my skin that I just can't look at any other products anymore :).
Thanks, Angie. Your makeup and top combo was so pretty in this video!
Thank you for the video! I've been using Timeless vitamin C every other day for 2 months. My skin still can't get used to it. Is Dr. Brenner more gentle on the skin? If I use it at night, will I still get the antioxidant property? TX
You look younger every year! Your skin routine clearly works great!
Thank you! I'm near the end of my Timeless Vit. C and was curious about other alternatives even though I love it! BTW, the color you are wearing in this video is absolutely stunning on you!
I've been using the Timeless Vitamin C since you turned me onto it. I've been using it for about 6 years now, and WOW. Proof that quality ingredients + consistency works!!
I also wonder if it would help absorbtion if you spritz your face with water before applying the no water C formulas?
I agree with you! I also have been using it regularly for years and my skin looks fantastic!
Timeless also makes a 10% vitamin C serum as well. Dr. Brenner’s formula gave me perioral dermititis. I’m looking at 12 weeks of meds to try to get rid of it. Use with caution!
Thanks. Very informative, and glad the Timeless is still your 1st choice!
It is interesting how different our perceptions are : I love Pura D’or ( that I heard here from you ) and I don’t sent a bad smell . I love it !!! Thank you for showing it before 🙏🏻✨🌹
Perfect timing! I’ve been looking at a new vitamin c serum. Do you use it on your hands as well or just face and neck? Thanks Angie!
You look cute in vitamin C orange today 🧡🧡🧡. Have a great week Angie (& everyone!)
Yest another fantastic video! Can you tell me if 3--0 ascorbic acid is the same as the other ascorbic acids you mentioned?
I love the Timeless Vitamin C serum. I buy the large 4 Oz pump when it’s on sale for 40% off. 😁
Skinsceuticals rep told me the funky smell actually comes from the ferulic acid-not the Vit C. I have found that there is something special about their formulation but jeez it's too pricy so I alternate with the Timeless. I have also had an issue with my Timeless oxidizing(in the new pump bottle) when I ordered from Target. Will stick with ordering direct from Timeless.
Your ph testing video you did a while ago is famous I just use it as my bible so informative and well done thank you so much
I actually make my own solution of water based L-Ascorbic acid at 20% with ferulic acid, HA, vitamin E, and Pycnogenol to keep it at its peak. I make about 200ml and then freeze it, only using 50mL at a time so it stays fresh. Very easy and very budget friendly.
Hello, could you share the formula?
Angie, thank you for the video! If you haven't done so already, I'd love to know your opinion on the Beauty Pie vitamin C products, especially the capsules. Thanks!
I mix the Ordinary vitamin C with the Ordinary's Ferulic acid and add vitamin E oil. Goes and feels very smooth
@hotandflashy love your work, thank you for this service! Question- I have heard in other sources that L ascorbic can be active on the face for about 72h!? What are your thoughts on using it every couple to every other day and still seeing benefits? I use timeless 20% for over a year, ty to you!! ☀️ 😃
I love the Maelove and I like that I can get a discount when I order a bundle of the serums I use from them. I use several of their products. I think I am going to decant my next bottle into a airless pump since they sell them on Amazon.
Another great affordable water-based option is Skin Deva 20% Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) + E with ferulic acid. It's cruelty free, vegan, and available on Amazon.
I use Skin Deva’s 20% ARGIRELINE + MATRIXYL 3000™ + HYALURONIC ACID serum to dilute my Vitamin X from Regimen Lab.
@@BeckyCantu I've never tried that or any other Skin Deva products besides the vitamin C, but I need to!
Is it good for sensitive skin?I so want to try it
I've been using Skin Deva vit c for years because I preferred the feel of it over Timless, but I've never heard Angie talk about it.
@@VT0412i I'm sorry but I'm really not sure, as I don't have very sensitive skin myself. If you read through product reviews, you may find some helpful information.
Hi Angie, just wondering what you use on your hands they look so soft and hydrated with no brown spots, mine look dry and with brown spots
Those are some deals! I just hope people don't make the same mistake w Vit C serum as I did, even a 20 minute drive without sunscreen will ruin your face w a sunburn! I have sensitive skin born w dermatographism so vitamin C really puffs up my skin like I had filler! It looked like too much filler until after I was 45, now Vit C serum is absolutely amazing but I have to be careful during the Summer.
