Clinique Fresh Pressed Daily Booster with Pure Vitamin C 10% is a complete winner of a product! I highly recommend this product especially for those that are looking to introduce vitamin c into their routines.
Firstly the packaging is just right. The plastic opaque tube keeps the beneficial ingredients stable & protected from light. In the full sized pack you get four & when your ready to use one you remove the foil seal, under that is a button you press twice to mix the product together. This makes the vitamin c powder go into the serum solution & then shaking the product mixes it all together giving you a vitamin enriched beautiful serum for skin.
Each tube it said to last 7-10 days once mixing and opening. So with the four tubes you are getting a whole month worth of serum. As you only need to activate when you are ready to use you also aren't wasting any & you get to choose when your ready to use it. Just perfect.
The serum is yellow in colour and quite runny but is super easy to mix into other moisturiser. It is dispensed via a long nose and is protected by a twist off cap.
While mixing well with other moisturisers I prefer to apply this just like a direct serum to my skin. It's easy to spread and soaks in beautiful- never leaving the skin tachy or sticky. I use two to three drops of the serum and I find this is enough. My skin prefers the direct vitamin c absorption. This vitamin c feels lightweight and not heavy at all. The serum doesn't clog pores or give me breakouts.
I used this kit - the four boosters for the whole month & this gave me great results. The booster serum left my skin looking brighter, more radiant & with more even skin tone. This booster contains 10% of vitamin c as ascorbic acid as well as added antioxidants, peptides and skin brightening ingredients. It also contains a bit of salicylic acid to promote cell renewal as well as sucrose, betain, algae extract and caffeine which work as anti-irritants to help calm and soothe skin. There is also added molasses to break up existing dark spots; mulberry root, scutellaria and grapefruit extracts to prevent future discolouration. The peptides leave skin looking softer and more hydrated.
There is no fragrance either & it's completely soothing on the skin so no irritation or redness.
Just within a few days I even started receiving compliments that my skin was glowing. It gives skin this most incredible natural glow.
Overall this product is a complete winner especially for those who have pigmentation or looking for anti-aging ingredients. The vitamin c percentage is just enough for daily use and the results are amazing.
The packaging can be a bit wasteful/ not environmental but it is perfect for travel & keeps each container stable.
You can also just buy single ones instead of the package of four.
Highly recommended.
