Honestly, I love this vitamin C, but a lot of people complained about its texture, that it's grainy. So let me explain you why it's grainy. As you all know, vitamin C is super easy to destroy with sunlight and oxygen. That's why this formula is a powder mixed with a cream. This vitamin C is in the powder. The graininess you experience when you apply this product is a vitamin C powder. This texture, this grainy texture, this powder mixture makes this vitamin C more stable and you can get your vitamin C delivered right into your skin without being damaged with sunlight or oxygen. I recommend you to mix it with one drop of the ordinary hyaluronic acid and just mix it together and then apply it on your face and you will see that it won't be grainy 

We all know that vitamin C is good for us. It helps to fight free radicals. It's good to fight dark spots. It brightens the skin and it helps to produce collagen, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But not everybody knows that you cannot mix it with acids. You cannot mix it with retinol. You cannot use it together with niacinamide. You cannot use it together with salicylic acid, but you can use it with azelaic acid and together they work just fine and they give amazing results. So this is what I do. I double cleanse with squalene cleanser. I use my vitamin C and I layer my azelaic acid on top of vitamin C. Then I follow with a moisturizer and on top of moisturizer, I apply sunscreen. Let every product set for a minute.
