Banana Bright Vitamin C Serum - Vitamin C und Hyaluronsäure Aufhellendes Serum

Terrible Vitamin C!

I don't have sensitive skin or allergic to anything but this caused a horrible itchy rash around my eyes and neck!

SEVERE ALLERGIC REACTION

After using this product once , I had severe allergic reaction and ended up with getting steroids! Avoid using this product! They must remove the product from the shelves!

Smells amazing

I love the way this smells - exactly like fresh oranges! If I use it too frequently, I notice some odd skin texture forming, but after finding the right routine, it's a skincare staple.

Best Vitamin C in terms of texture and fragrance

Often Vitamin C products don't have great texture or great fragrance. The texture and fragrance on this product are both great. I highly recommend this product. I daresay its even somewhat hydrating, which I almost never find in a Vitamin C product.

Catastrophic

Never would have thought I would have such a bad reaction with this brand. Dried out my skin. Red patches, tiny blistering pimples, itching and burning. Eye cream was bad as well. Swelling and dark circles. I want to cry. Do not buy this product. So upset feel like suing them.

DO NOT BUY

I wish I could give ZERO star . I have had a severe allergic reaction to it and also with the eye cream. Swollen face eyes with red big patches and I am still dealing with it I haven’t recovered from the reaction don’t know what’s in it it was so itchy I would not recommend it to anybody please avoid buying it it will ruin your skin

Something is very different

This product made my face and neck break out in a very itchy swollen red rash. I have little hive bumps all over my face and neck. It didn’t occur until 8 hours after applying. I’ve used this product years ago, money got tight, so I discontinued for a few years. I just bought the pack of banana bright eye cream, moisturizer and serum only to discover something has changed in their products. My face is on fire as I type this. I will never purchase ever again.

Completely ruined my skin!!!

Used one time and the next morning I woke up with red, bumpy, burning skin. I normally have very clear, nice skin. This product completely destroyed my skin barrier. I’ve used the eye cream before with no issues so I was excited to try this product but unfortunately it was a complete disaster for me!!

Not for sensitive skin!

Caused bumps and redness that lasted for days. Every time I reintroduced this product the irritation came back. Have previously used the truth serum without issues but this one is just too harsh

A must to have in my routine

Love it!! The way it leaves my skin soft and glowy. It’s definitely worth the price. I have purchased this several times now and never had an issue. Olehenriksen is my favorite!

Allergic reaction

I’m allergic to this product. Tried it two different times and caused my under eye got itchy and swollen. Had to start steroid cream to treat this problem. Not for me.

Not for everyday use or people with sensitive skin

This is very strong. Not for everyday use or people with sensitive skin. I wouldn't recommend. I used this daily product for a few weeks and then developed what looked like eczema on my cheeks, neck, forehead and temples. I've used Vitamin C serums from other brands for years, so I never thought it would be the Ole Henriksen Vitamin C - I thought the tight skin and redness were winter dryness that just wouldn't go away. I started experimenting with adding more gentle products and testing what I was currently using. After a month of painful trial and error - and being turned away at the medspa for any treatments because my skin was so inflamed - I realized it was this product that was wrecking my skin. I had stopped using it for three weeks, along with any other actives. Once my skin had improved I reintroduced this product as the ONLY active and two days after using it, the redness, burning and inflammation started up again. I've seen other reviewers say that this isn't for beginners or people should do their research before putting this on. No, it shouldn't be this difficult for consumers. The onus is on the manufacturer to put those warnings on the label. People shouldn't have to be scientists or have their skin get inflamed to find out how strong this is or how sparingly this should be used. I've used many Vitamin C serums and never had a reaction to this. It's just not a good user friendly product. I wouldn't recommend.
