have not tried mrcolas C - I do like this kind though.thier new formula does not taste as good as before - but if you read thier comments - they say it is better for you.

Mercola's vit c has been tested by liv-on labs and found to not contain any Liposomes . Check the amazon reviews of Mercolas vit c for more details.

I haven't used Mercolas so I can't answer. I think any Liposomal Vit C would be good.

I can only say that it is pretty disappointing to secretly shrink the size and with a lesser formula. There are some other great vitamin powders out there with these ingredients. I personally like alot of Mercola products. They are well researched and mostly organic.

It's been a long time since I bought and did research on this. I did extensive comparisons and read many reviews and my conclusion was the Trimec Classic was the best way to go. From what I can see, they both contain the same ingredients, but the Classic has them at a much stronger concentration.

People tend to use too much product. I use serum from 1/2 oz dispensers and one lasts 2 months. My esthetician tells me I am using the correct amount. Thing is, the vit C goes bad in about three months. so that is why I buy mine in smaller quantities.

Personally, I have used both and the Natural C works great on dark spots- much lighter, but not gone....yet. The Super C helps with wrinkles- not gone yet either.

Hi! I just put little hyaluronic acid inside and mix together but you can use on top on vit c ;)

Maybe the manufacturer can probably give more information about it. But no, this is not 20% Vitamin C as my skin is very sensitive. 20% will cause sensitivity to my skin and also I have to be watchful when i go under the sun. As the UV will cause mild burn on my skin. And thats why most of the people buying 20% higher percentage Vit C serum are advised to use high SPF. I love this Loressen Vitamin C because it is gentle to my skin without worrying about the effects caused by the sun.

I use their vitamin c hydrating toner and have been really happy with it. It is also a great product.

What they both do is stabilize vitamin C and extend it's effectiveness. Since they're both antioxidants in their own right they also increase the effectiveness of the serum that way as well. Win, win all around.

The product must be old. I have ordered two bottles of the same Vitamin C Serum and it is clear and has a pleasant order. You should contact the seller and send it back.

Dear Christian - the ratio of Vit. C serum to the total amount in the 1 oz bottle is 20%. As 1 oz equals 28.35 grams, 20% of that is 5.76 grams. If you multiply 5.76 grams by 1000, you have 5,000.76 milligrams (mg) of Vitamin C serum in the bottle. The rest is Vit. E and Hyaluronic Acid. I have used H. Acid by itself and I like it. However, this product by Amara Organics is even better as the addition of the Vit. C serum seems to have made this product much better for my skin. I have been using it for only two or three weeks and it is too early to pass a definite judgement on its effectiveness. However, so far it seems to be quite good and I am very happy with it.I hope this helps. Cordially, Gabriella Dear Christian - the ratio of Vit. C serum to the total amount in the 1 oz bottle is 20%.

According to the company website, this vitamin C comes from the Acerola cherry. We've been using this product for a couple years now and it is the ONLY vitamin C we buy. It is a great product, overall, compared to the choices out there. Well worth the price.I had a question once and I contacted Healthforce Nutritionals and they were very knowledgable and helpful. My only problem with this product is the addition of maltodextrin to prevent sticking, as most maltodextrin is derived from corn.

I have been using the serum for about a month. I do see a difference in the texture of my skin. I am 59 years old, and have been diligent with keeping my skin healthy, including trying to reduce lines and wrinkles. I use the serum with a collagen crme, sunblock, retin A and hydroquinone (not necessarily all at the same time). I cannot say for certain that the serum is the sole reason for my healthy skin, but it is a contributing factor. I bought this serum since it was a 20% Vit C and it was the best price. Some folks have complained of the smell, but I don't notice any bad odor from the serum. I hope this helps.

I would recommend the Vitamineral Earth rather than the Macaforce. Earth probably has more ingredients that help with inflammation.

Good question, I know they are different but never really asked how.. I will query my doc and ask her what the difference is and repost if I find out. I used to be on Vit D 1,000 until my alternative Doc changed me to D 3, 5,000 units 2x a day. It is the sunshine vitamin and although I am a sunbather and frequently spend hours at the beach or outside, I am still lacking in D 3 which is why my dosage is so high. My Doc stated you can never really get enough of D3, it helps to prevent cancer amongst many other diseases, keeps the cells happy and I have to say after sitting in the sun for over 50 yrs, never a skin cancer. All depends on the genes too, I tend to tan very easily. Good luck Good question, I know they are different but never really asked how..

I have used MD Forte first and switched to Vivite because my dermatologist did. To me they are about the same, both good products.

The bottle says serving size 5.4 grams (1.5 teaspoons) 302mg of Natural occurring food source Vit C 503%. I love this brand as it is MUCH better than vitamin C from ascorbic acid (which is good if you need to relieve constipation in young ones. But this Vit c is from acerola berries and doesn't cause diarrhea as with ascorbic acid.
