Manufacturer Contact Information Garnier, London, W6 8AZ Review: Brightening Serum That Truly Helps with Morning Glow - I’ve been using this Garnier Vitamin C Brightening Serum consistently in my morning routine, and it definitely gives my skin that fresh glow I look for before starting the day. It feels lightweight, absorbs quickly, and gives a natural radiance without being sticky or heavy. This serum combines vitamin C, niacinamide and salicylic acid — a trio that works really well together to brighten skin, help even out tone and gently exfoliate surface dullness. After a few weeks of use, my complexion does look more luminous and feels more refreshed compared to before.  Detailed Breakdown: Hydration: Leaves skin feeling hydrated without tightening. It boosts moisture just enough that my skin feels fresh and not dry. Pump / Dispense Functionality: Comes in a dropper-style bottle that gives precise control — a couple of drops go a long way. Scent: Mild citrus smell — refreshing but not overpowering, which I like in a morning product. Absorbency: Absorbs quickly into skin and layers well with moisturiser and sunscreen afterwards. Overall Thoughts: If you’re after a daily serum that brightens the skin and helps with that morning glow, this is a solid and budget-friendly choice. It’s lightweight, effective for everyday use, and makes my complexion look more radiant over time. Highly recommended! 🌞 Review: Excellent / Definite repurchase - I was looking for a pure vitamin C serum for anti-ageing benefits, however I also suffer from melasma and mild pigmentation, and when I saw the this one which had a "vitamin C" in its name, the price was good, and had an additional blend of active ingredients I thought I might as well try it. I'm glad I did. To begin with it is important to note that this is not a pure vitamin C serum, rather it is the vitamin C based skin brightening serum. The difference is that a "pure" serum, prioritises the most potent form of vitamin C for maximal anti-aging and collagen benefits, while a "brightening" serum provides a more balanced approach to overall radiance and evenness, often with better stability and less irritation for the user. "Pure vitamin C serum" likely uses L-ascorbic acid, the most potent but unstable form, while this vitamin C skin brightening serum uses a more stable derivative and a blend of brightening ingredients. Based on the listed ingredients and the way the skin feels post application this serum appears to be of a good quality. The 30 ml bottle is quite a good sizing considering that only a drop is needed to generously cover half of the face, so depending on the frequency of use, this will last for quite a while. This serum has a mild and pleasant citrusy smell, a light, yellow, milky consistency and is easily absorbed. In my case, the skin is left feeling soft and well hydrated which some might mistake the feeling for greasines, however I'd disagree. From the very first use, I felt it brightened my skin and gave it additional glow. It also reduced my melasma and improved my skin texture. My pigmentation spots are still visible but I feel like they're slowly fading away. I experienced no adverse reactions or irritation, however, this product does contain alcohol and fragrance, so it may not be suitable for everyone; be sure to check the full list of ingredients. Overall, this is an excellent skin brightening serum suitable for all skin types, at a bargain price, which I have no hesitation in recommending. ## Features - Uk’s #1 Brightening Serum – Now Enhanced: Our clinical-strength 4% formula now features Melasyl, a patented active designed to target dark Spots & Discolouration.
