Pilling

Hi there, my  OLEHENRIKSEN Banana Bright 15% Vitamin C Dark Spot Serum 1.0 oz/ 30 mL has been pilling up on my skin everytime I use it. Is there a way to stop this from happening? Or should I get a different vitamin c?

Re: Pilling

Is it pilling on it's own? Or is this is in combo with a moisturizer or another serum?

 

I would suggest using a modest amount of product. Sometimes too much product will cause pilling. Or it may be due to the other products or makeup. OR you have to space out the products, like use vitamin C,  wait ten minutes then moisturizer etc.

I am not familiar with this product but I guess either using too much, so your skin can't absorb it well/not giving it enough time to get absorbed, or it not going well with other products you use could potentially cause that problem. I had serums pilling for those reasons before, so maybe that helps a little to figure out why this happens. 

Also, I have one serum that would act like that no matter what, working it in with my rose quartz roller has worked well for that one - patting product in instead of rubbing them in could help as well, in case you don't do that already. 😉
