Recommended use is after using skin toner, take an appropriate amount and gently spread it along the skin texture, then pat to absorb. After using, the serum is pretty good, it’s hydrating, but it did cause my skin a bit of a tingle, but most vitamin C serums do that. It didn’t cause any irritation, but it does contain an artificial fragrance. It layers well for daytime use with sunscreen. Just be sure to avoid the lips and eye areas. I'd recommend this to anyone with dull skin and breakout-prone skin, but if you have issues with fragrance, it's best to patch test this.
