Illuminate BC+ Brightening Serum Full-Size (30mL) Reviews

4.5 Rating 275 Reviews
I am a skincare addict and I frequently do massive amounts of research before trying any product. I am also 39 years old and I have oily, acne prone skin but I also smoked from the age of 18 to 28, thankfully I have been able to quit but it was too late since I have smoke lines near my lips and wrinkles on my forehead. Anyway like I mentioned, I have tested a decent amount of skincare products in my day but I also have a tendency to be drawn in by what’s the most fashionable and expensive thing you can find at places like Sephora. Lately I’ve been using mainly Drunk Elephant products, especially their AHA/BHA products with moderate success but I swear they are the cause of some breakouts I have been getting on my chin. My mother, who is 67 years old but looks only 50 years old, has amazing, smooth and clear skin. I asked her what her secret was and she told me that all she really uses is this serum and their Prevent oil each morning. I had never heard of Naked and Thriving before, but I finally tried the Illuminate serum two days ago and I think I found one of the most miraculous skincare products I’ve ever used. I usually wait to review items until I feel like enough time has passed to give them a proper chance but after the first day of using this my nasty smoke lines look diminished and what I’m really excited about is that it faded old acne scars significantly, in just two days. Also the existing pimples I had on my chin are clearing up, my pores look tighter, it gives my skin an instant glow. This is the only new product I’ve added to my regimen recently. So far it hasn’t caused any pore congestion or irritation, and it’s formula is not greasy, gives you a glow. Let’s just say I have been using drunk elephant for two months and have yet to review it, I have been using naked and thriving for two days and I cannot stop raving.

I really wanted to love this product! I tried it for a while but the smell is something I can't get past. It also made me break out, so I have stopped using it regularly. I do still try it from time to time because I did notice a difference in my sun spots. If you don't have acne prone skin and can get past the smell, it's a good product.

I have used other Vit C serums in the past but after doing some research felt this was the best option for me. It goes on so smoothly and I love the way my skin feels and looks. Great product.

I have been using this product off and on, and noticed a definite difference in how my skin looked on the days I used it. The flat and sallow appearance of my skin seemed to disappear, replaced by younger, brighter skin. I now use it on a regular basis. Love it!

I am a skin care junkie and can’t even estimate the money I’ve spent over the years. For the first time, I can say that I saw a difference with Protect serum in a few days and so bought Illuminate serum and Detox oil, which I use at night, and Prevent oil, which I use with Protect for the day. Texture has improved, dark spots reduced, fine lines gone—with no irritation or breakouts over a couple of months now. Could not recommend more highly.

I really like the illuminate serum. It brighten my skin and doesn’t leave a greasy residue. I’m 52 and have always tried to take good care of my skin. I feel the Naked and Thriving products have helped me to maintain a youthful look. My skin care routine follows with their rejuvenate face oil and I love it as well.

I have very sensitive skin and am always wary of trying new products but have used this for 3 days and I have to say the condition of my skin has massively improved in a very short time! I have quite red cheeks (possibly rosacea) and since using illuminate, the redness has already calmed down - amazing as I have never found a product with this effect. I have been following with the prevent oil. No irritation at all from either. I bought travel sizes as wanted to try before purchasing the full sized bottles, but will definitely continue with these products. I know everybody's skin is very different, but these products work amazing well for my skin and I am super happy, thank you!

Absolutely love everything about this serum. It sinks in quickly and does not leave any residue. After about a week I noticed more even tone and my skin literally seems brighter.
