Here is my updated vitamin c regimen.
Pixi Skintreats Vitamin C Serum: I love the smell of this serum. It has a nice fresh citrus scent, like grapefruit. It's great because usually serums that have the same ingredients as this one smell like hot dog water. The combo of ferulic acid, vitamin C, and vitamin E in serums like these is common and has that weird hot dog water smell, but this one doesn't. It includes citrus peel extracts that probably give the scent. It's slightly yellow and sinks in quickly imparting a nice glow. The price point ($24) for the ingredients is awesome too.

Beauty Pie Superactive Capsules Pure Double Vitamin C & Vitamin E: I am obsessed with Beauty Pie. Their membership prices are so great, its hard to resist the urge to add everything to your cart. These capsules contain a silicone based vitamin C serum. The active in here is ascorbic acid. I find the capsules to be rather small and they don't seem to contain enough serum to cover my entire face, so I like to mix it with the below moisturizer.

Primark P.S. Daily Brightening Moisturizer: I picked this up on a whim the last time I visited Primark. It is their in-house brand called P.S. They make a matching serum which I have already used up. The moisturizer was super cheap at $2 for 1.7 oz. This too has an amazing scent. It smells like fresh oranges. This one uses a more stable form of vitamin C than ascorbic acid and I mix one pump with one of the superactive capsules before applying to my face. It's a light gel moisturizer.
