Product Quality

Pros:

  • "I have been using the image vitamin C creme image line for 5 years and love it."
  • "This cleanser is so gentle, yet it contains enzymes that are exfoliating, so my skin is glowing after I use it!"
  • "Image Vital C is very gentle and refreshing. I suffer from rosecea and this product provides cleansing without dryness, helping keep flare ups to a minimum."
  • "I absolutely love this hydrating facial cleanser."
  • "Great smell and seems to really clean my skin."
  • "EXCELLENT. I have been using Image skin care for about 2 years now and I can't say enough good things."
  • "The vital c cleanser smells great, cleans gently and effectively and is very gentle."

Cons:

  • "Overpriced and no difference to skin at all."
  • "Product seems OK. I would not buy it again. Once I figured out how to get out some of the product, retrieving it becomes more and more difficult."
  • "This product does not take any makeup off of your face."
  • "Also, not good at removing makeup so basically served no purpose to me."
  • "This product contains too much oil for me. I broke out and I never break out!"
  • "If purchased from Amazon, the product comes without a seal on the actual bottle."
  • "It smeelled good, but I don't think this is the real product, it doesnt leave that glow the real one does and it turns sort of goopy after a while."

Scent and Texture

Pros:

  • "Love the scent and gentleness."
  • "I love the scent, smells like I’m washing my face with real oranges."
  • "It has a fresh subtle citrus scent which I love!"
  • "I love the hint of orange fragrance."
  • "I love the light citrus scent."
  • "The smell is amazing and fresh too, not artificial smelling."
  • "It has an energizing orange scent and loaded with vitamin c."

Cons:

  • "Has a funny smelling scent to it which makes me question whether it’s authentic or not."
  • "The smell is something like rotten citrus or moldy citrus."
  • "The new ones have a horrible, chemical smell."
  • "The smell is invigorating especially in the morning the strong orange scent I love."
  • "Not sure if this is the real thing or not. Thought I would purchase online but big mistake."
  • "The face wash appears to be way more yellow than it should be almost looks like its off or something.... Shame !"
  • "really heavy, almost like putting lotion on instead of cleaning face."

Packaging and Authenticity

Pros:

  • "Product packaging was not original, I know this because I am an esthetician & I have ordered this product directly from Image skincare."
  • "When you order directly from imageskincare, they SEAL the bottles INSIDE of the little box it comes in."
  • "The product I got from this seller was amazing and completely authentic."
  • "It came sealed and looks/smells/works just like it is supposed to."
  • "I confirmed with Image Skincare that the authorized amazon seller is legit."

Cons:

  • "Not sure if this is the real thing or not. It has a citrus scent and it orange/cream color. As time goes on it turns yellow and doesn't clean my face that well."
  • "I can't say for sure, But I'm not convinced that this is an authentic product."
  • "Unfortunately the seal was open and I didn’t feel safe to use it."
  • "Arrived in the packaging with the seal on the box broken... the bottle itself was open."
  • "I really wanted to love it. It smell like oranges and is so refreshing and hydrating BUT...every time it use I break out with this huge cystic acne ) :"
  • "But as soon as I put this on my face, I get a burning sensation that sticks with me long after I rinse my face (ie. still feeling it 5 hrs later) and my face goes quite patchy red."
  • "Can’t return the product so that’s a big $$ loss."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "A small amount goes a long way which increases value for price."
  • "Been using for awhile but buying at 2x the price elsewhere."
  • "I've been using this product off and on for 10 years. It's pricey, but a bottle will last for months as you don't need much."
  • "I bought this at a salon I received a facial from months ago and it was $26. I found it here a lot cheaper."
  • "You don't need to use a lot to clean your skin, so it's well worth the money."
  • "I have been using several Vital C products for years. Great products. On the high side in price, but works so well that I pay the price."
  • "I will keep buying this because it does exactly what I want."

Cons:

  • "I don’t feel like the product was worth the money."
  • "It's not returnable so into the trash it goes."
  • "The items may be great for others but these products left my face extremely dry with scars on my face."
  • "This mild cleanser actually soothes as it cleanses."
  • "Nothing has ever come close to helping my sensitive, ‘mature’ skin feel cleaner, smoother or moisturized as this cleanser."
  • "The BEST cleanser out there, I’m convinced. I have milia, and this has it almost completely cleared up."
  • "Leaves your skin feeling so soft, smooth & hydrated."
