I began adding more and more product until eventually I was applying the serum to my entire face. I saw the same flushing and slight irritation/sensitivity but again, nothing serious enough to stop the testing process. I did see some irritation/sensitivity, redness, flushing but nothing too serious so I began adding a tiny drop to different parts of my face for many weeks. I applied this serum to those areas for a few weeks, yes weeks. For this VC serum, I applied it to the inside of my wrist, neck, chest and behind my ears. Patch testing can look different for everyone but for me, I test products in stages. This is how I introduce new skin care products to my easily irritated skin. I always patch test and I recommend patch testing to everyone. I usually touch base on patch testing further into my product reviews but due to the nature of VC, I feel I need to write about how I incorporated this into my routine.Įvery product I use goes through a very detailed patch testing period. So as you can imagine with my sensitive skin, I started the process of adding Timeless VC into my routines very, very slowly. While L-Ascorbic Acid ( L-AA) might be the best form of vitamin C in terms of collagen production, UV protection, fading scarring and hyper-pigmentation, it has been known to cause skin irritation and sensitivity. This is especially true for vitamin C (VC) products as my skin hasn't played well with other serums in the past. This review is long over due but when it comes to testing out potent anti-aging products, my sensitive skin requires extra time for testing purposes. Today I want to finally review the Timeless 20% Vitamin C, E & Ferulic Acid Serum.
