Great dupe for another product is 4x the price. Gentle and effective. It’s my active ingredient for my AM routine. Am 52 and never had cosmetic procedures, not even Botox. Been using for 5-6 years! Kelly L. · maelove.com

I’ve been using the Murad Vita-C serum and really like how lightweight it feels on my skin. It absorbs quickly, doesn’t leave any sticky residue, and gives my face a nice healthy glow. After a few weeks, I noticed my skin tone looking brighter and more even. I’ve noticed it works best when I pair it with Murad’s cleanser, toner, and their SPF day cream—the whole routine really makes a difference i Tam N · influenster.com
