What, another one, you say! Well, yes. I love serums, especially serums with vitamin C and hyaluronic acid. So I take advantage of almost every opportunity to try a new one.
This time, I’ve been testing Naturalico Vitamin C 20% Serum by Bella Naturals that I received from the blogger association, Tomoson, for review.
Naturalico Vitamin C 20% with Hyaluronic Acid is a natural serum, as the name suggests. It’s chock full of natural ingredients including loads of herbal extracts and oils including a number of natural ingredients that I love:
- rosehip seed oil
- wild geranium oil
- green tea extract
- sea buckthorn oil
- and plant stems cells among other natural ingredients.
It also contains skin-loving vitamin E. I was impressed by the fact that it contains 98% natural ingredients, 72% of which are organic. Sounds great to me 🙂
Here are the benefits listed on the bottle: “This serum is a concentrated delivery system for the highest form of active bio-available Vitamin C for beautiful skin. Enriched with Vitamin E and suspended in a concentrated base of pure vegan hyaluronic acid to plump skin cells and protect and restore. It will give your skin a beautiful and youthful appearance by stimulating collagen, reducing fine lines and improving skin’s tone, texture and elasticity.”
I’ve said several times before that each vitamin C and hyaluronic acid serum I try is different in its own way. Naturalico Vitamin C 20% Serum is a light serum that almost feels like heavy water. It doesn’t drip, but it is the lightest of the serums I have tried. Although it is certainly recommended for all skintypes, I believe that this would be an especially wonderful serum for those with combination or oily skin. For my desert-dry skin, I prefer the heavier gel serums because I feel like a thick gel is adding moisture immediately to my skin. But that’s just me. This lightweight serum dries quickly, so you can follow up with your moisturizer without having to wait. BTW, it has almost no discernible scent.
I’ve been using Naturalico Vitamin C 20% Serum twice a day. With vitamin C at the 20% level, it is at the top of the desired amount of vitamin C. I’m still working on fading all those years of sun damage that have started to show up on my face.
Naturalico Vitamin C 20% Serum comes in a 1 fl. oz. protective brown glass apothecary bottle with a glass dropper. It is cruelty-free and displays the Leaping Bunny logo. It’s made in the U.S.
Naturalico Vitamin C 20% Serum is sold on Amazon where it is currently on sale for $18.88.
This sounds good. The fact that it contains 98% natural ingredients has me sold!
I also thought the ingredient list was very impressive!
I love that it’s mostly natural too and that it contains so much vitamin C.

Yes, it’s got a great ingredient list!
Great review, Allison!
I have just published my review for Naturalico serum, too! And I also like it 🙂
I totally agree, it is a good one for oily skin, but I think it works well for other skin types, too.

I think it’s a really good C serum, just not hydrating enough for my skin.
Forgive my ridiculous ignorance, but how do you apply this to your face? Just drop some into your hands and then rub into your skin?

Krystal, that is a great question! I shouldn’t have taken it for granted that everyone knows how to apply serums. I have reviewed so many of them lately, I guess I erroneously relied on readers having read my earlier posts, and that is certainly not the case. To apply serum, squirt about half a dropper full of the liquid into the palm of your hand. Press your other hand on top of the hand with the serum in it and pat the serum onto your clean, dry skin. Let it dry and then apply your moisturizer or other serums. Hope that helps!
This sounds like the serum for me, I have that oily/ combination skin and some oils drive me nuts when it’s like water

Well, I would say this one is like water but just a little thicker. It has some substance to it, but it’s on the watery side. I prefer the heavy/thick liquids or gels for my dry skin. Hope that helps describe it better, Jessica!
Wow, this sounds like an amazing serum! This sounds like it would be great for my combination skin! I love how affordable it is!

It is incredibly affordable. The ingredient list with naturals/organics is impressive. I think most people would love the lightweight consistency. Only people with desert-dry skin like mine might find it not hydrating enough.
I love vitamin C. It always brightens my skin.

Vitamin C sure is a wonder ingredient for skin!
It does – thank you! I’m still a new reader to your blog so I haven’t gone back to the archives.

Krystal, you are reminding me that each post is its own thing and I need to remember that most readers are probably reading the blog for the first or almost the first time. Thanks for that!
Love vitamin C! Great review!

Cindy (Prime Beauty) recently posted…Kaplan MD Perfect Pout Review!
Haha, I definitely have tried a lot of them, lol! This one has a lot of great natural and organic ingredients, but with my dry skin I prefer a serum that is a little heavier in weight. 😉
Amazing review as usual! I so need to add a vitamin C serum into my routine.
This might be a good bit C serum to start with since it has great ingredients and is quite affordable 🙂
I think I can benefit from this serum!
Great ingredients and affordable price, it’s a good serum for most skintypes!
You and I looooove our serums! I love trying new ones, too. I love that this one has such a high percentage of Vitamin C. My skin loves that to help undo all the crappy sun damage I did to it when I was a kid.

I agree, Nidia! I think you and I have tried the most serums. I like this one because of its natural/organics ingredients, but with my super dry skin some of the heavier ones suit be just a tiny bit better.
That’s a great ingredient list
Yes, the ingredients and the price make this serum a winner!
I need to incorporate more serums! I just have trouble finding ones that work for me.

I’ve never tried Vitamin C on my skin, although I really should but I do rely on Vitamin E to get rid of some scarring!!! Great review!!
I think this one has vitamin E in it too. Vitamin C really does a great job brightening, and it’s great for skin of all ages. Someday it may be something you want to add to your skincare routine.
