Reviews

Awful bottle with clumps every time you use it!

"The bottle that it comes in is awful. It's heavy and clunky for travel. It squirts out messy and every single time, you get the hard formed "chunk" or slimy booger out of it and you have to fish around and throw it away or it literally stays on your face! Disappointing! Fix this or I won't purchase again!"

— Jill (1/5)

"I absolutely love this product! It goes on so smooth and evenly and give your sking the perfect amount of hydration and dewy look"

— Donna (5/5)

Good but container not made great

"Good product but when you pump it out it doesn’t come out on just 1 finger. . squirks everywhere. Could be put in a better container so it’s not wasted. ."

— Kristen V. (3/5)

Absolutely stunning product

"I absolutely love the IMAGE MD® Restoring Power-C serum! It has made my skin look brighter, smoother, and more refreshed. The lightweight formula absorbs quickly without feeling greasy, and after using it consistently, I’ve noticed a healthier glow and improved overall texture. A little goes a long way, making it a great addition to my skincare routine. If you’re looking for a vitamin C product that delivers visible results, I highly recommend giving this one a try!"

— Anupa S. (5/5)

Product Packaging Feedback

"I am writing to share feedback regarding the packaging of the MD Restoring Power-C Serum. I absolutely love the serum and have been very pleased with its performance. However, my only concern is with the new packaging. Since the bottle is not transparent, it is difficult to see how much product remains, which makes it challenging to know when to purchase a replacement. Aside from this issue, I am very satisfied with the product and will continue to use it. I hope you might consider this feedback for future packaging improvements. Thank you for your time and for creating such a great product."
