Calling All Beauty Buffs: The Sunday Riley C.E.O. Vitamin C Brightening Serum Is Marked Down for the Amazon Early Prime Day Sale

I’m always on the hunt for skincare products that address my issues (dry skin and dullness), and I’ve long had my sights set on the cult-favorite Sunday Riley C.E.O. Vitamin C Brightening Serum (was $122, now $83). Seems like a 30 percent discount for the Amazon Early Prime Day might just be my sign to pull the trigger, no? The brand has gotten rave reviews from my colleagues, including Commerce editor Olivia Dubyak who tested the Sunday Riley C.E.O. Glow face oil (from $40) last summer, and reported that the oil was worth its price tag for its effectiveness and advanced long-lasting formula. (Psst: speaking of Amazon Prime Day 2024, you’ll be able to grab many of your favorite beauty, fashion, home and tech must-haves at lower prices from Tuesday, July 16 through Wednesday, July 17.)

As for the Vitamin C Brightening Serum, the recipe is meant to brighten, firm and plump your skin, which means it should get your face refreshed, hydrated and balanced. Packed with 15-percent vitamin C, which studies say works toward eliminating hyperpigmentation and dark under-eye circles among other benefits, per the brand, you could begin seeing improvements in as little as a week. Also included in the serum is glycolic acid—which exfoliates, and saccharide isomerate extract—a pore-reducing ingredient that helps replenish and restore. All of this ladders up to slowing the signs of aging and reinforcing your skin’s natural barrier for an overall healthier complexion.
