PRODUCT REVIEW: VOLITION BEAUTY STRAWBERRY-C BRIGHTENING SERUM – CLEAN, NATURAL BRIGHTENING SERUM FOR FACE
VOLITION BEAUTY | STRAWBERRY-C BRIGHTENING SERUM
I’ve literally had my eye on this product for I dunno two years now — since it first dropped at Sephora, whenever that was.
I actually wasn’t 100% sure what the Volition Beauty Strawberry-C Brightening Serum was until I started playing around with it a couple of weeks ago.
I thought it was an exfoliating serum for the longest time and kept putting off putting it in action, fearing irritation.
It’s actually quite fun to use — and not the least bit harsh! So what is it? Think of it as a cool, fruit-powered brightening and antioxidant serum similar to the Glow Recipe Pineapple-C Pineapple-C Brightening Serum. Funny, come to think of it, I guess I got bored with that and bequeathed it to my niece. I always felt the pineapple thing was a bit weird.
But strawberries? I love 🍓🍓🍓!!! There’s something so light, refreshing and layerable about the Strawberry-C Brightening Serum and I think it’s the high level of Cucumber Fruit Water.
There are two derivatives of strawberries in the formula — Strawberry Seed Extract and Strawberry Fruit Extract at ingredients no. 5 and 6, about 3-5%. Both are somewhat antioxidant.
But Vitamin C extracted from strawberries isn’t the only brighting active in the Strawberry-C Brightening Serum. The legit antioxidant and brightening power comes from 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid — a super stable form of pure Vitamin C.
There are also a few fermented actives to nourish the skin and even humectant Sodium Hyaluronate — the salt form of Hyaluronic Acid that’s more compatible with the skin.
Strawberry-C Brightening Serum is clean, natural and a pleasure to use. Nothing scary about it! How silly was I?
