Anything but ordinary, this water-free formula provides 30% L-Ascorbic acid (a pure form of vitamin C) that remains completely stable thanks to the absence of water. When applied topically, this form of vitamin C has been shown to brighten complexions and defy multiple signs of skin ageing and the addition of very light silicones in this formulation means that it feels super-smooth on the skin. Simply apply at bedtime (you may experience a tingling sensation in the first weeks of use) and wake up to the skin you've been dreaming of.
Want to brighten your skin and defy signs of ageing (we're talking discolouration, fine lines and dark circles) overnight? You need The Ordinary's Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone. In its pure form of L-Ascorbic acid, vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that has been shown to visibly brighten skin and reduce signs of ageing when applied topically. This waterless formula provides skin with a very high concentration (30%) of pure L-Ascorbic acid that remains completely stable due to the absence of water. The addition of very light silicones means that this formulation feels gorgeously smooth on the skin, although a strong (but non-irritating) sensation can be expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to a high concentration of vitamin C is improved (the formula can be mixed with other creams and serums to reduce this sensation if needed). Ideally applied at night, this fabulous formula works hard while you do the opposite, leaving you with smooth, bright and even skin when morning comes around.

Apply a small amount to face in the AM or the PM (PM preferred). A tingling sensation can be expected after application. If this sensation is too strong, this formula can be diluted on each application with your favourite serum or cream.

Tested on aging skin
My mother in law is happy, so am i! She said her skin tone had become even and age spots had lightened.

Poor texture
Every time that I applied it on my skin it leaves a rubbery residue so I used it only when I stay home and I don't need to apply foundation on the top. However, I think that I can see that my skin became smoother and clearer. If I could find a way to use it without this rubbery residue I would repurchase it but now I would prefer to buy something more pricey but that I can use it every day.

Not seeing results yet
I’m not really liking this product and normally I like everything! I’m not keen on the texture either. I’m going to keep trying as everybody else’s reviews have rated it as good. Hopefully, I’ll start seeing a difference.

Amazing
Agree with previous comments that suggest using this after skin is moisturised. Was unsure at first but now use it very sparingly and massage it into certain areas at night and after a few weeks have noticed a HUGE difference. The grainy texture is slowly forcing out all the nasty blackheads that would otherwise never see the light of day!! Browny/orangy patches seem to appear - wash it off and bye-bye blackheads. Skin is soooo silky smooth to the touch too! Amazing product!! X

Brilliant!
This is such a good product! I was getting a lot of breakouts and have a lot of small dark scars from squeezing (a habit I am managing to break) and it is fading them away! This is a strange texture, not unpleasant, just different to creams/oils/serums and I use it before bed after cleansing, leave for 30 seconds then apply The Ordinary retinol, plus a moisturiser on top. I have been waking up for the last 6 weeks of using this with such clear, soft skin! This can dry your skin if you don't use a good moisturiser and can also tingle if you have any little areas of broken skin from spots or anything but just mix with a moisturiser. Highly recommended!!

Had high hopes.
Heard a lot about this product. Really wished it work for me. Unfortunately every time I apply it leaves me with white rubbery residue. I get lot of tingling sensation and redness. Now have to look for something different.

Poor
This doesn't absorb into skin, and is very rubbery and too thick. After managing to rub it into your face, even after half an hour if you rub your eyes and it gets in it will sting.

Amazing product
I have an acne-prone and combination skin, and I finished almost 3 bottles of this bad boy, it has cleared a large part of my pigmentation it's one of the best vitamin C creams that I have ever tried, highly recommend!

The secret to this product
The secret to this product is that you should start off with an oil based product and then apply it on top afterwards as it is very drying when using alone. So I apply vitamin e oil first then Vitamin c suspension. I do it every night and have noticed a smoother appearance. :-)

I think I would prefer a serum...
This product works, no doubt. From the first uses, I started seeing more and bigger blackheads, which means that it pushed "things" out. However is super tingly and now that I'm starting to use a retinol, I wanted to move vitamin C in my morning routine. I tried it once and felt really uncomfortable, even topping it with a nice and strong SPF. I like it, but I think when I'm finished I'll go for a serum version.
