Skin Vitamin C Serum, L Ascorbic Acid Ferulic Acid Niacinamide Face | Vitamin C Serum for Face with L-Ascorbic Acid, Ferulic and Niacinamide for Facial Skincare, Smooth Texture and Firm Skin

I have used a couple different vitamin C serums previously and after researching more, I found out they did not have L-asorbic acid nor the ferulic acid. I have several products from the prequel line and if you watch any of Dr. Ellis’s posts, she explains why she includes certain ingredients and the best percentages of that ingredient to work most effectively without excessive irritation. I have had no irritation using this. Yes there is a smell, this is normal and present in several other more expensive brands with similar ingredients, it’s not a deal breaker for me and after about 15 minutes I don’t even notice it. My product was a pale yellow. I’m thankful no artificial scents are added to make it smell more pleasant. I like the pump, I squirt it into my hand, pat my hands together and evenly pat on my face. It does have a thinner consistency and has a slight oily feeling at first but soaks in quickly and does not leave my face oily or sticky. It leaves my skin with a nice glow after.

Prequel's Skin Lucent-C serum has been a great addition to my morning skincare routine. My skin tolerates it very well with no irritation. The texture is thin and light, so it layers very nicely under moisturizer or sunscreen without pilling. I’ve noticed my skin looks smoother and a bit firmer after regular use. I’m giving it four stars mainly because of the packaging and scent. Even a tiny press on the pump releases too much product, and the smell isn’t great. The smell does fade quickly after applying, but it’s not pleasant. Still, the formula itself is impressive, with L-ascorbic acid, ferulic acid, and niacinamide working together to brighten and even out my skin tone. I will put up with the smell because it's such a great product. If you’re looking for a gentle yet effective Vitamin C serum that delivers glow without irritation, this one is definitely worth trying. Just go easy on the pump. Also, when you are trying a Vitamin serum for the first time, start off using it 2-3 times a week to see how your skin reacts before using on a daily basis. :)

Seems like a high quality product. Does not have any fillers or added fragrance. Very important to point out. It smells like a campfire, and that's normal. I had to look it up myself. It has to do with the Ferulic Acid. So just know going in that it will have a very smoky campfire like smell. It is not rancid that is just the nature of it being a low ingredient product without added fragrance. And I can very much understand that some people will not like that. I am giving it a chance because I want to see how the ingredients work with my skin. And it does seem to dissipate over time and it's easy to cover up with another moisturizer on top. Please know this is a very liquidy product so if you go to pump that bottle aggressively it will gush and squirt at you. I very gently dispense the product into my hand. It is more on the liquid runny side and it is a light pale yellow. I also look that up and that's a good sign because it means all the ingredients in it are fresh. Orange-yellow to orange-brown would mean that the ingredients have started to go rancid. I do like the pump bottle better than a dropper, but go gently the first few times using it. I thought those were very important considerations to let purchasers know before they buy it.

I recently started using this Vitamin C serum, so I haven’t used it long enough to speak on long-term results yet. So far, it applies smoothly and absorbs well into my skin without feeling sticky or heavy. The scent isn’t terrible, but it’s also not completely neutral. It has a slightly noticeable smell that isn’t overpowering and fades after application. One thing I did notice is that the serum is a darker color than I expected. That made me wonder a bit about its freshness and effectiveness, since I know Vitamin C can oxidize over time. That said, I haven’t experienced any irritation, and it seems fine on my skin so far.

I wish I could give this a better review! I love the line and the derm creator. Unfortunately every time I have this delivered the product has issues. From leakage in the box and all over the bottle, to a dark orange colored product that is already very oxidized, to the first several uses squirting out way too much all over. If the bottle leaks then oxygen is getting in and damaging the product before I can even begin using it. Therefore, I've switched to a new product. I keep coming back to the reviews with hopes that the bottle has been upgraded, but not yet. Please consider a new bottle and new packaging, Prequel!

I love this serum! This is my second bottle that I purchased. This Vitamin C serum is very light, glides on smooth and is fragrance free. It comes in a pretty blue bottle, nice packaging and it's from a very well known US dermatologist's line of skincare called Prequel! The bottle is small but most Vitamin C serums are fairly the same size. It has a pump dispenser that makes it easy to dispense the serum into the palm of your hands. It lasts for awhile depending on the times used in your skin care routine. This serum can be used for any skin type and the price is very affordable compared to other serums, including drug store serums. I highly recommend the Prequel, Lucent C, facial serum. Prequel is a skin care line founded by dermatologist Dr. Sam Ellis!

This is my second vitamin c skincare product and I’m glad to say I won’t be switching to another one. Before, I tried a Korean vitamin c cream but didn’t notice any effect from it whatsoever. Prequel has brought me the nicer-quality serum that I need. I love that Dr. Sam Ellis makes this important skincare staple both approachable and affordable. It’s very liquidy so it took me a few tries to get the hang of application. I tried pumping several drops directly onto my face like some people do—but I have sensory issues and dislike that feeling. What I do is make a “cup” with the palm of my hand and pump 1-2 pumps of product into it so it pools. I dip my ring finger to get some of the serum and then apply it in large “dots” onto my forehead, then repeat the finger/dot method for my cheeks, chin, neck and nose. Then I use my fingers to collect remaining product from my palm and use them to rub in all of the “dots” evenly. I have dry skin. In my experience this serum is not sticky or tacky after applied. It feels smooth, plump and nice. The smell is a bit strange but I don’t mind it and it goes away after a few minutes. I usually wait 2-5 mins before applying my moisturizer and sunscreen to let it soak in. I will say you should apply this to bare skin always. I accidentally applied it over some leftover self-tanner lotion on my face and it was extremely itchy and uncomfortable all day. Use it as the first step for daily routine and you’ll be good to go.

It’s super runny and not a big fan of the smell. Does seem to help improve my face though.

It very good bit c it didn’t irritate my skin

Leaked bottle. Poorly packed. Product is highly priced and zero quality

Very beautiful in the skin

Seems to work quite well for my skin but warning: do not apply to any broken skin or it burns. Found this out from having a tender nose after a cold 🤧. Was worried it burns but after my skin healed it tolerates it fine. I didn’t notice the smell. Mine is light orange but i don’t think it’s oxidized, if you read the FAQ on their site it’s normal but you do have to use it within a few months of opening. Oh and yea the packaging is kind of crazy, for some reason it blasts out like it’s under pressure. I just push lightly on the pump and it’s not a big issue.
