review : Dear Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin Charging Serum

Following the success of their best-selling Freshly Juiced Vitamin Drop, Dear Klairs has launched a new vitamin product, the Freshly Juiced Vitamin Charging Serum, a powerful brightening serum packed with a mix of vitamins C, E, B3 (niacinamide), and B5 plus madecassoside to improve overall skin tone and pigmentation, boost radiance, and target early signs of aging.

Compared to the original Vitamin Drop, which contains pure Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid), the Vitamim Charging Serum uses 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, which is a Vitamin C derivative. The two serums function similarly, but the difference is that the former is more potent and may deliver quicker results, while the latter is more stable (doesn't oxidize as quickly) and is less irritating to the skin.

First of all—I love the airless pump design! I find it much easier to use vs a dropper bottle, and it keeps the product stable for longer, as well. The serum itself is super lightweight, not sticky or oily, and sinks into the skin quickly, so it's great to use in the AM. It goes well with the rest of my routine—no pilling whatsoever. It's also quite gentle, doesn't sting or make my skin feel tight or warm, so it's suitable even for sensitive skin types.

After using this for around 6 months, I could see that my skin did look brighter and seemed healthier overall (though that might be partially due to my pregnancy hormones at the time 😆). It helped fade my melasma nicely as well. It didn't do much for my years-old dark spots though, so if your hyperpigmentation is quite stubborn like mine, you might need something more potent.

While using this I felt that it's quite similar to my favorite Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Essence, but without the oily/greasy feeling, which was the one thing I didn't like about it. Melano CC fans, you may want to give this a try!
