Is this serum supposed to be very thin and watery? I was expecting a thick serum.

Hi there, this serum has a thin & watery consistency unlike most serums. Simply squirt a pump or two into the balled up palm of your hand, rub your hands together and press the serum into your skin. Consistency aside, it's so effective at reducing acne & hyper pigmentation simultaneously. I love the line so much, I became certified in the brand as I'm an esthetician. So many awesome products, only I few I don't care for. Love it!

Just got a new bottle and it is not clear and smells like alcohol (my last bottle was brown and smelled like coffee), has anyone else had this experience?

Yes. Very thin and watery . so much so that its difficult to pump out of container without it splashing out of your hand. That being said, I like this product and I do find that it works for my skin.

Yes its a very thin serum, i tend to cup my hand around the nozzle as i pump it so i dont loose any of the liquid and then i spread it over my face focusing on the problem areas of my skin. I use it everyday and can't live without this! Keeps my zits at bay and my skintone even.

yes it is, as it is meant to absorb quickly into the skin. I have used these products for some time now and am enourmously pleased. Important to use other PCA products that work with the serum. Good luck and watch the results.

Yes PCA changed the formula it used to be thicker yellow cream now is watery brown solution but it works as great as the first one.

The serum is not clear but cloudy. Mine have always been sort of white and clear, cloudy mixture.

Uh oh. It should be a very nice smooth consistency. I would return it as it should not be grainy at all. I love the product and have VERY sensitive skin so try another tube!

Its more gel like. Not real watery, I can actually use the dropper and apply to face and it won't run down too fast.

I love this product! I'm getting ready to order my second bottle.... I use moisturizer with sunscreen over the serum since the serum isn't a moisturizer, but it also depends on your skin type, mine is on the dryer side and I need the sunscreen also. Glad to hear you like it too!

It is not a thick shampoo - however I have never had water come out of the bottle. I don't think of it as being watery...I have never had water come out of a bottle, even a travel size that separated a bit from sitting too long.

Mine wasn't thick but not watered down. Make sure it is orange in color. The scent was a bit nutty. Make sure to refrigerate after opening.

It is rather liquidy which does concern me. I have found however, that it lathers well and leaves my hair shiny. I like that it has no sulfates. I have also used the S factor shampoo which I purchased from Amazon. It is really thick and luscious, but it does contain sulfates. So I alternate the two.

It is on the watery side. Not a gel consistency if that's what you're looking for. I never repurchased, because it made absolutely no difference in the quality of my skin. Everyone's different though. Also, mine has not spoiled, because I keep it in the fridge.

Hi Lynn, I have used this now for a few months and I love it. My hair is thin and with this lotion, it makes my hair appear full and thicker. Definitely buying more. And Amazon has also the best price. I have checked. I do really like this lotion. Hope this helps. Jeanne

Hey Cassidy! It's thin, like water. Not sticky or anything though. It dries fast. I'm not sure what type of product you are looking for, but this one definitely gets the job done! My pores are super small and dark spots have lightened within a week! I use it twice a day, once in the morning and then at night. I swear this stuff is magic!

It's like a watery gel, almost like midway between toner and gel. I just use a dime sized amount and smooth over my face and neck. It absorbs very quickly.

It shouldn't be thin like water, you may try stirring some as a bit of a syrupy consistency is what has been the norm for each jar we've ordered. Glad you like the chocolate, we switched to w/o flavor, it just goes down easier for us.

The tube I got was full of liquid but I just shook it (for about a minute) until it hardened; it started coming out as a thick cream. I left it out for two days to see if it would go back to being liquid but that hasn't happened...yet. Though I don't know if it's a bad batch like C.Ho said since I haven't experienced any sunburn. I'm dark skinned so that might be why.

your skin sounds too sensitive for the 20%, you need to look for a lower dosage and gradually work up to it, as this is a stand alone serum OR as others have said, mix some with your usual moisturizer. I use the serum first, and then when totally dry I put another cream over top as my skin is drier, vit C serum is the best thing you can do for your skin so def try the lower dosages from someone else first, though I prefer Dr Songs and will stick to it :)

I don't think it's thick enough personally, it's midline in my opinion. I've noticed it also doesn't really absorb into your skin, but sits on top and will ball up sometimes if you rub your face. I would use the Cerave lotion in the blue tub if you want serious hydration.

Because it is a big bottle I've been using this shampoo for more than 2 months now. I don't think my hair is any thicker. I have curly, very thin hair and it's still the same.
