Great for sensitive skin, but not the instant glow I was hoping for
from Anonymous on 11/05/2025
I've been using Newtons Pharmacy's Vitamin C Triple Action Brightener in the mornings, and overall it's a solid, well-formulated serum. I really appreciate that it uses a stable, oil-soluble form of Vitamin C—Vitamin C Isopalmitate—which is much gentler on my sensitive skin compared to stronger ascorbic acid serums that often sting or cause redness. No irritation here at all.
The added plant extracts like Kakadu Plum and Bearberry, plus peptides, make it feel like more than just a basic brightening serum—it’s more like a treatment for long-term skin health. My skin feels hydrated, calm, and supported.
That said, if you're someone who loves the dewy, glowy finish of some other vitamin C serums, this one might feel a bit matte. It absorbs completely and leaves no shine or radiance immediately after application, so it doesn't give that instant "glow" effect in the morning.
I’d recommend it for people who want a gentle, thoughtful formulation focused on results over time rather than immediate radiance.
