“I have been using this serum for around 3 months. I think that it does give you a glow. I just love that it hydrates my very dry skin. As soon as you apply it I can feel it kind of starting to work its magic.”
Facetheory has knocked 25% off its entire website and there’s two free gifts – a blusher and cosmetic pouch – when spending £50. The sale includes the Glow-C Vitamin C 30% Serum which usually costs £34.
With the sale discount it’s down to £25.50, which means shoppers would have to order two or combine with other products to get the free products. It automatically comes with free delivery.
The product is said to have a slight citrus scent and a silky lightweight feel. It uses amino acids and 30% Vitamin C to target dullness, pigmentation and skin tone whilst also brightening and giving a ‘glow’. This is a common report with vitamin C serums as seen with the C15 Super Booster from Paula’s Choice, £52, or the La Roche-Posay Vitamin C12 Serum Anti-Wrinkle and Radiance Restoring Serum, £45.

Facetheory’s serum has an average rating of 4.48 out of five from across 691 reviews. One shopper said: “I have been using this serum for around 3 months. I think that it does give you a glow. I just love that it hydrates my very dry skin. As soon as you apply it I can feel it kind of starting to work its magic.”
A second penned: “Love this glow-C vitamin c serum . Absorbs into the skin really well. No sticky residue, not been using long but feel it’s giving my skin the vitamin c it needs.”
A third wrote: “I did some research about vitamin c, and that led me to purchase this serum. The price is great, and beats a lot of other vitamin c products out there because of the percentage of vitamin c. I’ve been using this for 2 weeks and love it. I use it after cleansing and it leaves my skin very dewy/glowy. I’ve not experienced any irritation and I’m thoroughly impressed. I love it!”
A fourth added: “I like the fact that it glows my skin. It has no smell which I love and a little goes a long way. I have a combination skin and it’s perfect, it doesn’t make my skin look or feel greasy.”
One shopper found it to be too oily, and even suggested a change to the formula that they would prefer, writing: “It works, but too oily that I broke out, can you replace the olive oil with squalane and reduce the Propanediol to make it less oily?”
Facetheory responded to the shopper saying: “For some individuals, especially those with oily or acne-prone skin, high concentrations of vitamin C can potentially lead to increased oil production and breakouts. Reducing the frequency and amount you use may help to reduce the breakouts. We value your input and will consider your suggestions for future product improvements.”
Facetheory’s Glow-C Vitamin C 30% Serum can be picked up for £25.50.
