Why is it a good deal?

This is the lowest price we've seen for this serum since 2022. While there's certainly no shortage of skin-care products that claim to tackle dark spots and fine lines, you'd be hard-pressed to find one for 8 bucks — quality skin care can cost upward of $50 or even $100 these days, not to mention the cost of pricey in-office treatments and facials.

Why do I need this?

The magic in the Eclat Skincare Organic Vitamin C Serum is the concentration of vitamin C. Many other serums on the market contain a 15% concentration, which isn't enough to make a difference, or upwards of 22%, which can be more irritating than beneficial. The Eclat Skincare formula sits pretty at 20% vitamin C, so it's effective without being overpowering, especially on sensitive or delicate skin.

What reviewers say:

This stellar serum has nearly 25,000 five-star fans. If you're battling dark spots — whether caused by the sun, aging or acne — some rave reviewers claim the serum can help lighten them. Writes one shopper: "This has significantly faded the stubborn dark spot on my forehead, so I'm thrilled about that," she shared. "I also love how this feels on my skin. It's very hydrating with a thick consistency, but it doesn't feel sticky. The ingredients list is great and you can't beat the price."

Others have noticed a smoother facial landscape altogether: "Since using this vitamin C serum I have definitely noticed that my fine lines have significantly reduced around my eyes and forehead," one shopper gleefully reported. "The roughness on my cheeks seems to be a lot better. I am in love with this product!"

In short, shoppers are in love — and astonished. "Is this a joke? I used this once — ONCE —before bed...washed my face, applied this serum and finally applied my normal moisturizer and retinol," said a happy shopper. "I woke up absolutely glowing, to the point that people were complimenting me...My skin is so soft and radiant, I’m terrified that people will catch on to this and it’ll run out of stock. How is it possible that a serum could do this? Mind blown."

Shoppers sensitive to smells rave about the serum as well, praising its fresh fragrance. "First off, it smells amazing," one wrote. "Lovely light citrus scent. Not too greasy. My skin is already more even and the fine lines around my chin look better."

"This made my skin feel amazing!" raved a beauty enthusiast. "Have only been using it for a week and already feel like my pores are smaller and my skin looks more supple and overall healthier." That said, they didn't quite agree with the reviewer above when it comes to aroma. "The smell is almost unscented, but not quite … doesn’t smell bad, just doesn’t have anything special happening in that department."

More than 25,000 Amazon shoppers love using this serum to help lighten their dark spots and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

"I have been using this for just under 30 days now, that's why I waited to do a review. I wanted to give it a real honest chance. I do find that it has made a difference in my complexion. The lines around my mouth and crow's feet have diminished, as well as the very fine lines on my forehead. I am super, super happy. I have been converted. This will be my new staple in my beauty regimen," wrote a satisfied shopper.
