The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. A case in point is the Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2% (30ml), a gentle serum designed to smooth, brighten and plump.
Want to improve the appearance of dull, lacklustre skin while you sleep? Cue The Ordinary's Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres (30ml) treatment.
At the centre of this water-free formula is L-ascorbic acid (AKA the purest form of vitamin C) which remains completely stable due to the absence of water. Famed for its brightening abilities, this acid reduces the appearance of an uneven skin tone and dark spots. That's not all though; with the infusion of hyaluronic acid spheres, this treatment also hydrates and plumps the skin. It's ideal to use at bedtime, so you can wake up with a radiant, supple and more youthful-looking complexion.
Ascorbic Acid, Squalane, Isodecyl Neopentanoate, Isononyl Isononanoate, Coconut Alkanes, Ethylene/Propylene/Styrene Copolymer, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Silica Dimethyl Silylate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glucomannan, Coco-Caprylate/Caprate, Butylene/Ethylene/Styrene Copolymer, Acrylates/Ethylhexyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Trihydroxystearin, Bht.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Apply a small amount to the face once daily, ideally in the evening. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes. Use sun protection during the day. A tingling sensation can be expected; if the sensation is too strong, the formula can be mixed with other oils of your preference before each application to reduce the strength.

Texture Perfector
This is the only part of my skincare routine I have to replace before it runs out, I notice the difference pretty much immediately. Within about 2-3 days of starting use my skin was smoother and softer, I didn't even realise my skin texture was rough until it wasn't any more.

Good addition to The Ordinary range
I read other reviews and use mixed with my moisturiser on a morning so it doesn’t sting and feel it’s making a difference to my skin so happy with using it.

Pleasantly surprised
Was a little sceptical about expecting good results from what is an inexpensive product. At 51 years old I have spent most of my adult life paying high end prices for my skincare. Felt my skin a little sluggish this last year or so and thought I’d give this a go and if I didn’t like the results, I’d only spent a little on them. Immediately my skin felt softer to the touch and the slight tingle on my skin let me know it was working it’s magic. Will certainly purchase this product again.

Vitamin C suspension
Feels a bit gritty and it tingles slightly, first time I used it I also put Retinol on first which made my face really itchy so I just use the vitamin C on its own after cleaning, with a light day cream after

Great product at a great price
I really rate this product... a little goes a long way and my skin is much improved since I started using it. I use a serum first and then a small amount of The Ordnary Vit. C suspension and it soaks in quickly and easily. Great value product for the price.

Great product if you know how to use it
I've seen a lot of people complain about this vitamin C suspension, and I think they may be using it wrong. The trick with this product is to put it on dry skin, as the itch and stinging are far worse if you put it on wet skin. Also, it should not be combined with acids, peptides or retinol/retinoids. This product is most effective when it's used on its own, or possibly with a little oil or moisturiser -- 'little' being the key word. As for the effects of this vitamin C suspension... I like them enough that I used up my entire first tube and then reordered the product. While I don't like the grittiness of the suspension, I can't deny that it does a great job of plumping up my face and making it glow. It also seems to even out my skin tone. I use this at night, on days when I'm not using any peptides or retinoids, and I really like the way my dry and mature skin looks the morning after. It both looks and feels very healthy. Younger, too. So yeah, I'll probably keep repurchasing this product, despite the grittiness.

mix it with something else
okay so i wrote a review saying it was gritty but that’s because i was applying it per their recommendation. it’s itchy and irritating because it’s basically super concentrated bursts of ascorbic acid powder sitting on your skin which is bound to irritate even pretty resilient skin. however, i started using it over an essence (i use the cosrx snail mucin) before the essence has been fully absorbed, which helps the suspended vitamin c powder dissolve. less irritation that way! i’ll be able to use up the tube now.
