Enemy #1: Heat (Inflammation)
Traditional water-based serums rely on low-pH acids that sting and disrupt your acid mantle. This trapped heat triggers a defense response—causing stubborn breakouts, persistent redness, or reactive dark spots.

Award-Winning Face Oil
Why Oil-Soluble Vitamin C Brightens Your Skin Without Stinging
Most commercial serums trigger your skin's two biggest enemies: HEAT (inflammation and stinging) and DRYNESS (dehydration and fine lines). We infuse 100% stable, oil-soluble Vitamin C into cooling botanicals so your skin drinks it in peacefully.
The Active Science
Oil-Soluble Vitamin C (ATIP)
Unlike harsh ascorbic acid, lipid-soluble ATIP matches your skin's natural barrier to penetrate deeply without stinging, burning, or turning brown in the bottle.
Natural Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative
Extracted from the Ayurvedic Babchi plant; smooths fine lines and supports collagen renewal without the peeling, redness, or sensitivity of retinol.
Rosehip Oil And Squalane
Bio-identical lipids that mimic your natural protective oils, weightlessly replenishing missing lipids to lock in all-day moisture without clogging pores.
Traditional Ayurvedic Extraction
Whole cooling botanicals are slowly infused in small vessels using 5,000-year-old Ayurvedic methods to preserve maximum plant potency.

The Active Science
Why Standard Serums Aggravate Your Skin’s Two Biggest Enemies
Across every skin type, most commercial chemical formulas trigger the exact same two biological reactions:
Enemy #2: Dryness (Dehydration)
Water evaporates off your skin within minutes (TEWL). Without vital barrier lipids to seal moisture in, cells shrink like a dry sponge—making fine lines appear far deeper than they are.
The Antidote
How Kerala Botanics Heals Both
Infusing stable, non-acidic Vitamin C inside 8 key actives (including plant-derived bakuchiol and 6 Ayurvedic herbs) creates a cooling, lipid-soluble environment. It calms underlying heat on contact while weightlessly locking in barrier moisture—with zero sting and zero greasy residue.

Game changer in my skin care routine
I’ve been hesitant about Vitamin C serums because my acne-prone skin tends to react poorly to most of them. But this serum has been a total game-changer! Unlike traditional Vitamin C, this formulation is incredibly gentle and doesn’t cause any breakouts or irritation.
Aroura Verified Purchase
Love this!
When I first opened the box I could smell the citrus and was immediately happy! I'm 56 years old and have had a difficult time finding a serum I am happy with where I can actually see results. I am tired of spending a ton of money for serums and lotions that don't work. I started using this at night only and after about 2 weeks I noticed a difference in the evenness of my skin tone, even with a face full of freckles. My skin is much softer and the lines around my eyes and cheeks have softened. I had a deep wrinkle on my top lip and it has reduced considerably! It only takes a few drops to cover my face and neck so it will last a long time. Great value! I am a lifer!

The BEST vitamin C serum for your face
This serum isn’t sticky at all! It’s light weight, aromatic and does the job of hydrating and help heal skin. Highly recommend for those with dry skin for that extra glow!

Great moisturizer and best Vitamin C I have used
Love the way it penetrates my skin, the way it makes me feel and the improvement of my skin. My daughter recommended I try it. I’ve used Vitamin C products for awhile but nothing compares to this. It is rich and luxuriant on the face, neck and hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this face oil suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?
Yes. Our formula is non-comedogenic, non-greasy, and uses organic ingredients chosen specifically for reactive skin. It uses lipid-soluble Vitamin C and soothing Ayurvedic herbs like gotu kola and ashwagandha to calm irritation and support your barrier without clogging pores or causing breakouts.
Can I use this Vitamin C oil in the daytime sun?
Yes, with complete confidence.
- Daytime-Safe Vitamin C (ATIP): Unlike harsh, low-pH water serums that sensitize skin, our oil-soluble Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate) is 100% non-acidic. It doesn't make your skin vulnerable to the sun; it actually neutralizes free radicals caused by daily UV rays and pollution.
- Furocoumarin-Free Citrus: Our natural citrus botanicals are specifically purified to remove furocoumarins (the natural plant compounds that trigger phototoxicity), ensuring zero sun spots, zero irritation, and zero daytime sensitivity.
Can I use this facial oil if I already use retinol in my skincare routine?
Yes, absolutely. In fact, our formula is uniquely designed to make your retinol routine work better while reducing irritation. Most people are told never to combine Vitamin C and retinol because traditional water-based serums rely on harsh, low-pH acids (like L-ascorbic acid) that clash with retinoids, triggering severe redness, flaking, and barrier peeling. We formulate with ATIP (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate)—an advanced, oil-soluble form of Vitamin C that operates at a skin-neutral pH, meaning zero acidic shock and zero clashing with your retinoid. Even better, our formula is infused with plant-derived Bakuchiol. Clinical studies show that pairing Bakuchiol with retinol creates a powerful dual-action synergy: Bakuchiol naturally stabilizes retinol against breakdown, while its soothing botanical properties act as a cushion, buffering against the dryness, peeling, and sensitivity that retinol often causes. How to incorporate it:
- The Golden Routine (AM / PM Split): Apply 3–4 drops of your Kerala Botanics oil in the morning for all-day antioxidant defense and glow, and use your retinol in the evening.
- Layering in the Same Evening: Apply your retinol serum first, allow it to absorb for 2 minutes, then press 3–4 drops of Kerala Botanics oil on top. Our nourishing botanical lipids (like Olive Squalane and Rosehip) will seal in moisture and protect your barrier from retinol flaking.
(Bonus: Many in our community find that our combination of Bakuchiol and lipid Vitamin C delivers such smooth, firm skin that they eventually replace synthetic retinol altogether!)
Will this Vitamin C oil sting or burn my skin?
Not at all. Unlike traditional ascorbic acid, we use oil-soluble Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Vitamin C. There is zero acid sting or burning, making it gentle, soothing, and safe for even sensitive, acne-prone skin.
Will this Vitamin C oil oxidise or turn brown?
No. Unlike water-based serums that quickly oxidise and turn brown, our formula stays golden. Thanks to oil-soluble Vitamin C and a naturally preserving rosehip oil base, your bottle remains completely potent and fresh.
Is this facial oil greasy? Will it clog my pores?
No, absolutely not. It is 100% non-comedogenic and absorbs in under 2 minutes with zero greasy residue. Crafted with ultra-lightweight botanical lipids like Olive Squalane and Rosehip (comedogenic rating 0 to 1), it melts in to leave a soft, velvety satin finish—safe, breathable, and balancing even for acne-prone skin.
Can this oil replace my moisturizer and Vitamin C serum?
Yes. This powerful 3-in-1 formula replaces your moisturizer, face oil, and Vitamin C serum in one step. Use it up to twice a day to streamline your routine and save up to $450 a year.
What does this face oil smell like?
It features a refreshing citrus scent from pure grapefruit, orange peel, orange, and rose oils. It is clean, uplifting, plant-based, and completely free of artificial perfumes or harmful chemicals. The citrus oils are Furocoumarin-Free, so they do not cause phototoxicity.
Is this safe for pregnancy, nursing, and sensitive or post-treatment skin?
Yes. Every ingredient is selected for gentle, non-irritating safety. 100% free from synthetic retinoids, harsh acids, and artificial fragrance, our formula relies on non-acidic Vitamin C and plant-derived Bakuchiol. While our finished formula has not been clinically tested specifically for pregnancy or post-treatment conditions, we regularly receive feedback from pregnant mothers and customers navigating post-treatment recovery sharing that it finally hydrates their dry, delicate skin without stinging or breakouts. As always, we recommend consulting your physician or OB-GYN before introducing any new product.

The BEST vitamin C serum for your face
After many years of trying to find rituals that relate to my roots in Kerala, India - I came across this serum early last year. Not only have I made it a regular staple of my skin routine; I’ve raved about it to my friends and family and they too can’t get enough. This serum isn’t sticky at all! It’s light weight, aromatic and does the job of hydrating and help heal skin. Highly recommend for those with dry skin for that extra glow!
Angela
Skincare essential
I'm obsessed with this serum! It feels so luxurious on my skin and smells incredible. I actually compared the ingredients to some pricier vitamin C serums, and Kerala Botanics’ are cleaner and better quality, which really surprised me. I use it every night, and it gives me this beautiful, hydrated glow without feeling greasy or heavy. My favorite thing is combining it with my ice roller when I want to feel a little extra pampered. It’s honestly become a part of my routine that I look forward to.
Molly Walsh
Great moisturizer and best Vitamin C I have used
Love the way it penetrates my skin, the way it makes me feel and the improvement of my skin. My daughter recommended I try it. I’ve used Vitamin C products for awhile but nothing compares to this. It is rich and luxuriant on the face, neck and hands. I wish I could use it all over my body. Makes my skin look and feel better than ever.
D. Maffeo
Amazing serum! Beautiful smell and super light
I came across this serum through a friend and being a firm believer in Ayurveda, I wanted to give it a try. The packaging is super cute and it felt so gentle on the skin. It made my skin quite soft and immediately hydrated it. The big cherry on top was the amazing smell it had. I'm going to continue to use it and definitely see myself ordering again!
Sahib Singh
Seems like a good buy!
I’ve just started using the oil but so far I like it a lot. It seems to absorb quickly into my skin. I LOVE the citrus scent! Only concern is the expiration date. It’s good now but am concerned it will expire before I use it up.
Kathryn
Game changer in my skin care routine
I’ve been hesitant about Vitamin C serums because my acne-prone skin tends to react poorly to most of them. But this serum has been a total game-changer! Unlike traditional Vitamin C, this formulation is incredibly gentle and doesn’t cause any breakouts or irritation. I only need a few drops to get that fresh, dewy feeling — it’s like a mini facial at home every day! After applying, I just follow up with a little moisturizer, and my skin feels set for the day. An added bonus? The scent is absolutely divine, and it lingers subtly, making me feel like I’m treating myself to something special every morning. Starting my day with this serum has become a ritual that I genuinely look forward to. Highly recommend it to anyone, especially if you’ve got sensitive or acne-prone skin like mine.
Aroura
Radiant Glow in a Bottle
I highly recommend the Ayurvedic Vitamin C Oil for anyone who wants to elevate their skincare game. Its unique blend of natural ingredients like Rosehip Oil, Ashwagandha, and Squalane infuses the skin with essential nutrients, providing deep hydration and brightening benefits. I have noticed a significant improvement in my skin's texture and radiance after using it regularly. It doesn't leave any greasy residue or heaviness, making it suitable for all skin types. If you're looking for a product that can nourish and rejuvenate your skin, this oil is definitely worth trying.
Miranda Volanti
Strong scent
Unlike others, I’m not a fan of the scent. To me it has the smell of rotten oranges…just too much and a little funky. But maybe I got a bad batch? It has great ingredients, but it was impossible to use during the day as it didn’t sink in and anything I applied over it didn’t look right, such as my tinted sunscreen. And I couldn’t subject my husband to that smell at night, it didn’t dissipate easily. So for me this was not something I’d get again. Skin care is so subjective so it’s really a “me” thing I guess with this!

Worked where others didn't!!
30yo male. I LOVE this serum. Tried so many others and nothing worked until a friend recommended me this one. My breakouts are gone and my skin feels ALIVE again. Highly highly recommend!! Just try it.

Worth the $
I already notice a difference in my face and hands After three days! Oil is not greasy and soaks into my skin nicely.
Martha
Loved it
Took me a while to find a vitamins that had the organic ingredients that I was looking for, and I loved it.
Balances natural oil production! Also the scent is refreshing.
This is a great balanced oil for my skin! My skin is moderate to dry, with more oil in the T-zone. The serum definitely leaves a light oil residue, so I will only be using this in the evening when I've just washed my face. I also have redness on my cheekbones and this will help with that too! Overall a nice finish to a nightly skin care routine. I think it's a good value, especially for how expensive some skin serums get. I only needed 3 drops to cover my whole face, so the amount of serum in the bottle should last for at least 6 months. I tried to show the level of serum in the second pic. Also, the scent is not overpowering at all! I found it to be a nice citrus scent, but certainly not as strong as someone peeling an orange right in front of you.

This oil is a must!
Love the way the oil feel, it wasn’t overly greasy and absorbed well. I have sensitive skin so finding something high quality and organic was a must! I was so excited to find this Vit. C oil with literally almost everything I’d wanted in it. It is a little pungent but not enough for me not to buy or recommend.

Oil has a citrus scent & absorbs quickly
Oil has a lovely citrus scent and as I massaged one drop into my skin, it was absorbed quickly. There was no oil left on the skin’s surface, but my skin felt soft, smooth and younger. There isn’t any lingering scent afterwards. I look forward to using this oil daily.
Bonnie
A bit oily but pleasant smell
The smell is nice but it is a bit more oily than I expected. I may have used too much the first time - Will probably try using in the evening. Will report back after further use…

Great product!
I like that it comes in an amber bottle and I also like the consistency and smell of the oil. It feels light on my skin and I've noticed a difference in just 1 week!

Wonderful ingredients, spot on for skin health
I love these vitamin c oil, as an skin researcher, formulator & esthetician, i come across many products. What i like about this serum is the great ingredients: stable forms of Vit C, Amla, gotu kola, grape seed oil and many more which makes it a power house of antioxidants and skin barrier protection. The glow and moisture are amazing. I have referred it to many of my customers. Happy w the purchase.

In love with this Ayurvedic oil!
I don't usually write reviews but i fell in love with this product the moment i opened it. I decided to buy it because I went to Kerala, India a few months ago and I got unique ayurvedic massage there. When I was looking for vitamin C oil and I saw the name of this one I was really intrigued and wanted it right away. I've been using this oil for a week now and my skin is definitely happier, softer and more radiant. And the scent of the oil, wow.... it's absolutely amazing. Extremely happy with this purchase. Big 'Thank You' to the seller.
Krasimira Mitkova
Good Results.
This product is excellent and I can see an improvement in my skin (face). I will start on my second bottle soon. I like that the serum is not greasy and can be used before applying makeup.

Love this product!
This oil makes my face feel soft and smooth. The citrus scent is very refreshing, especially since so many Ayurvedic products don't always have the best scent. Glad I ordered it!
Marla Woody
I love it!!
I love the scent and it instantly gives a nice glow to my face! I tried many Vitamin C serums before but they were either drying to my skin or left an oily residue. I love that this oil is non-greasy but my skin feels hydrated. I feel like it's a great bonus that it also includes bakuchiol which I keep hearing about. I def recommend this product! I usually use it in the morning.

Real Oil, not a "serum"!
The oil is light feeling, but also seems to hug the skin. It has a satisfying aroma and I am looking forward to experiencing it long term. I was delighted to actually find an oil, not a serum.

Amazing
Little amount of the oil covers the whole face . I applied first night saw very bright next morning. I have rosacea I noticed it’s reduced the redness I should keep observing I am confident it will work good. Most importantly does not cause any breakouts.

My new favorite facial oil and totally worth the money!
This oil is the perfect consistency and is not greasy at all. Smells so good, since it has bakuchiol in it. It made my skin glow and feel very moisturized immediately! Branding is on point too! I'm a sucker for good design :)

Vitamin C Facial Oil
It’s wonderful. It feels luscious on my skin. It’s oil based so it’s not runny. It smells like oranges when you first put it on. My skin quickly absorbed it and I put a moisturizer over it.

I love this product
I absolutely love Kerala Botanics Vitamin C Serum! Its gentle, plant-based formula leaves my complexion glowing, smooth, and even-toned without irritation. It’s a luxurious self-care experience, enriched with bakuchiol for effective, chemical-free benefits. The nourishing oil texture and citrus scent feel truly indulgent, replacing multiple products in one nourishing bottle.

It's become a new addition to my evening skin routine! Super light!!
I was nervous to give another face oil a try - I had been using a different one that had ended up clogging my pores and I was working through the resulting breakouts but, after hearing so many great things about this one, I couldn't pass up the opportunity of trying it. The first thing I noticed was how light it was compared to the other - just that eased my nervousness :) I've since included it in my evening skincare routine and have loved the citrusy scent before bed. I'm glad I didn't call it quits on all face oils. This one is a keeper!

Already in my routine and my skin is much better
The ingredients are the best, and I use it every night since I ordered it. I do see some changes and my skin feels amazing. Looking forward to testing it more. Great product.
BAR ATTAR
Best serum
This has helped my skin feel alive again in as little as a week. I use it most days before bed when I remember I do morning too. But it makes my skin feel so smooth and hydrated. There’s no oily residue left over. The quality of this serum makes your skin feel so smooth and absorbed. The smell is so amazing too for an added bonus!
Kristina
Amazing Ayurvedic Vitamin C Oil!!!
I love this vitamin C oil sooo much! I've used a lot of different products over the years, and I like to keep my skin care routine simple, above all else. I was worried it feel heavy on my skin, but it absorbs very nicely and smells AMAZING. You are getting more than what you pay for -- it's a very high quality product and you won't find anything else like it on the market.
Kathy
Loved it!!
I liked the fact that it glides easy on my face and gives an instant glow. Also I like that it has anti-aging properties and comes recommended by one of my favorite influencers.
Works fine, smells isn’t my favorite
I’ve been using this facial oil on/off for the past few weeks. Generally speaking, I’ve used many facial products and while this one works fine, it hasn’t been anything special or favorite for me personally. The oil is relatively hydrating, but takes a little longer to soak in. And the scent for me is a little strong, and not my favorite. It smells citrusy, but more like an essential oil which is a little too much for me. It does a nice job when I use it for facial massages, and seems to add hydration and keep my skin elastic, so that part makes me happy. For products like this, it can really take a long time with constant use to see if it actually makes any difference, so I will update the review if I notice any significant changes.
Moisturizing
This oil has a thicker consistency, the scent is very strong at first but then it fades fast, I didn't get a lemon/citrus scent, it is weird to explain but what it reminded me of was oil based paints, like when you go into an art studio, I know that is a weird description but it was what my nose took me to. The absorbency is quick and skin feels super soft, I will say this is more for dry skin, this being thicker it did make my skin feel oily after a few hours, after some weeks of use I haven't seen my skin getting brighter, maybe I need more time.

Good Skin Brightener, Contains Essential Oils
This facial oil has some nice ingredients in it, like rosehip oil which has lots of great fatty acids, vitamin c, vitamin e, squalane (great moisturizer for all skin types), and bakuchiol (similar to retinol). It absorbs nicely into my skin and leaves it feeling moisturizer yet not greasy or sticky. My skin seems brighter and more even-toned since using. There are some essential oils included though, which made me dock a star. It has a pretty strong citrus scent that reminds me of Pledge. While this particular smell does not bother me, those with fragrance sensitivities may have issues with how strong this is and miss out on the great skin benefits because they can’t use it.
SarahLT
Amazing
It smells absolutely amazing. The product really helps so much with my facial skin and brightens it a lot. I couldn’t have asked for a better product!

A little oily
It's carefully wrapped in plastic seal and then in a paper box. Dark yellow-ish oil. A little bit oily, but very moisturizing. I don't smell too much scent. Good for use at night.

Vitamin C serum with orange scent and easy absorption
Vitamin C serum with rosehip and ashwagandha is a facial care product that promises to offer a number of skin benefits. One of the first things you will notice when using this serum is its delicious orange scent, which makes it pleasant and refreshing to apply. Also, if you apply it at night, your partner will find it a pleasant aroma. In addition, this serum is characterized by its easy absorption, which means that it does not leave a greasy or sticky feeling on the skin after application. This is especially important if your wife uses it before applying night cream, as it will not interfere with the absorption of other products she may be using. The presence of vitamin C, rosehip and ashwagandha in the formula of this serum offers multiple benefits to the skin. Vitamin C is known for its antioxidant properties, which means it can help protect the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals and reduce the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles. Rosehip, on the other hand, is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin A, which helps nourish the skin and improve its texture and elasticity. Ashwagandha, meanwhile, is a plant with anti-inflammatory and soothing properties that can help reduce inflammation and redness in the skin.

Soothing dry skin and makes skin glow texture
This face oil is easy to apply; spreads well and absorbs well. Easy to use. I am very sensitive on smell and this one has strong scent. Though, it didn't linger much and doesn't bother much so I think it's still okay to keep use for me. It soothed dry skin and gave me glow skin texture. However, it didn't brightened my skin tone. Instead, it darkened face skin tone a bit. Made in India.
Sung
Good ingredients, very strong orange scent
I’m a huge fan of vitamin c face oil and I use it almost everyday. This one is a good texture, and seems to have good ingredients. It absorbs well for an oil. However, the orange scent is extremely strong. It has grapefruit peel extract in it so maybe it’s from that? It smells like real oranges, it’s not fake at all. The scent is very pleasant, there’s just too much of it. To me it’s a little strong to use on my face on a routine basis. I’m going to try it mixed into a body oil instead.
Initial impressions are good...
This is a review for Kerala Botanics brand Ayurvedic Vitamin C Oil - Skin Brightening Vit C Serum which at time of review is $38 for the 30ml bottle (1.01fl oz). I've been using this serum for the past week and here are my observations. This is a face oil, so it is oily, and it does take time for the oil to absorb. It has a fairly strong scent of citrus which to me does not smell artificial at all, and disipates rather quickly. This may be better used at night because in my short experience so far with make up it will move it around (I don't wear much but tinted sunscreen and mascara and it wants to take my mascara off). It's great as a night serum. It does stay on the surface of my skin for some time.

I love the orange natural scent this has. I’ve been using this as an oil for gua sha, it helps the tool glide across my skin. If anything, I’ve noticed my face has a more even tone. Hasn’t caused any breakouts or negative effects.

Nice face oil
This is a face oil that smells quite nice-like rosehip oil, which has a slightly nutty smell. Rosehip oil is the main ingredient of course, so that would make sense. It has a number of other great ingredients as well. This is a nice oil for doing facial treatments- gua sha, red light, cupping etc. it gives the skin nice slip and has some nice ingredients in addition to the oil, to boost skin health and vibrancy. Overall, I like this.

Good for very dry skin
This facial oil has a pleasant scent and is very moisturizing. It has great natural ingredients for moisturization and brightening. Since we’re heading into summer right now it feels a little heavy for my skin, but I think I’ll appreciate it more next winter which is when my skin is the driest.

Moisturizing Facial oil
This feels like a very high-grade facial oil. When used as the 5th step in a skin care routine, it does it's job well. The oil itself feels very moisturizing, yet somehow doesn't feel greasy. It didn't break my skin out at all, as would happen if I used a pure oil and then slept on a pillow. The smell is wonderful. Having scents like this turns a skin care routine into more of a nightly pampering session. My skin looked supple and radiant the next morning. I feel like the whole next day my skin still felt soft and plump. The applicator itself works well and you can easily control the amount of oil that is dispensed without having to obsess about it. It's not cheap, but you definitely get what you pay for. Great quality facial oil.

Vitamin C Oil But Make It Ayurvedic!
This Kerala Botanics Vitamin C Oil is different from your average Vitamin C Oil because it was developed through Ayurvedic methods. It is a nice oil that smells very strongly of orange juice. If you love everything citrus, then that’s great, but if you prefer unscented facial products, this may not be the one for you. I apply this oil in the morning, & it absorbs well without leaving my face greasy. I follow up with a primer and am able to wear make-up over it. This oil has some nice antioxidants in it that I have not seen in other skincare products, such as ashwagandha, which I take as a daily supplement; so if you are looking for a Vitamin C oil that has something different going for it when compared to other products on the market, give this one a try!

Plant based Ayurvedic Vitamin C & E serum
I like that this Vitamin C & E serum also has several natural plant based herbal ingredients like Vetiver, Manjistha, Amla, Ashwagandha, Gotu Kola, Carrot seed oil, Bakhuci, Licorice root that help brighten skin and have skin restorative benefits. It does have a strong citrus scent but I like citrus and it is pleasant.

Quality Serum/Smells Great
I’m a fan of this serum. The first time I tried it, I thought it might be a little heavy/greasy, but it is quickly absorbed by your skin and ends up leaving it feeling moisturized and smelling great. I also think settling on 4 drops for my face and a 5th for my neck has been just about perfect. One other note - my skin is prone to breakouts, and I haven’t had a single one while using this serum. I know there are different kinds of acne, and certainly different skin-types, but that’s a great sign that this serum is safe and well-designed in my opinion.

Vitamin C boost plus extras!
This vitamin C serum is slightly pricier than most of the options I have tried. However, it does have some extra ingredients that provide those extra benefits such as anti-aging, firmness by locking in moisture and booting collagen production. The product is orange, a little greasy but gets absorbed fast. Smells like fresh orange, in my opinion excellent for the morning routine. It is only 1 oz, but a little goes a long way, 2-3 drops is more than enough for face/neck. I always try to incorporate vitamin C in my AM routine due to plumping benefits and the glow it adds to the skin. This paired with a retinol serum/cream at night keeps my skin smooth and moisturized.

Hydrates and works well on combination sensitive skin
The Vitamin C Face Oil doesn't feel greasy or sticky when applied. I like its citrus scent and how it leaves the skin feeling hydrated but not oily.

Very nice Vitamin C Face Oil
This is the first vitamin C face oil I've ever used and I really liked how my face felt. I have only tried vitamin C serums in the past and since now my face is more mature, I have been using oil product more. I thought this did a very good job hydrating my face. I used this after using my Dennis Gross MD Alpha Beta Peels and I liked how this hydrated my face versus my usual vitamin C serum. This also absorbed very well into my skin. I am very happy with the results.

It really helps!
Ayurvedic Vitamin C Face Oil leaves my face feeling soft and rejuvenated. I've been using the face oil mainly at night. It does not make my skin oily. It sinks in. I like the citrus smell. I like that it is organic and cruelty-free. Most of all, I like that my skin is looking very hydrated and my skin feels amazing. I would recommend this product!

Fragrance is out of this world!!
Such an enriching facial oil that makes a wo of of difference in a short period of time. Massaging the fragrant orange oil in with my fingertips, I felt I was doing my skin a favor it has been needing for years!

lovely citrus aroma
I found this an excellent oil that absorbed quickly when applied. I used it on my face and the backs of my hands which is the real "tell" of a woman's age. The scent is fresh and lovely. The addition of vitamin C is a real bonus.

Vitamin C Facial Oil
This facial oil has rose hip and it brightens the skin. It helps with dark spots and evens the tone. It also works to prevent wrinkles.

Love the citrus smell
I like to use a face oil at night, but I’ve never had one that has this magnificent citrus smell. I would describe it as kind of a tangerine smell. It is a great addition to my skin routine. It works well and soaks in so it doesn’t leave your face looking oily.
