Same. I like it and it seems to be helping... and I’m not turning orange.

I use DE have fair skin and haven't experienced this. FWIW, I used the skinceuticals for years and thinks the DE is just as effective at less than half the price. If my skin starts turning orange, I will rethink!

Do you use the DE serum every day?

I think it depends on the serum. The DE serum is always orange. It sounds like other brands are less so at time of purchase, so a change to orange could represent oxidation.

What do these products do for your skin?

I just grind up the vitamin C chewable tablets I buy from TJs and mix them into face lotion. It’s a little gritty and when it dries, you can see bits of pill dust. But my skin looks great.

Yes. Pick one that's in a waterless base - timeless, csi, the ordinary are all great

OP here. I skipped the vit C serum this morning and my skin is a different shade than it has been. Sigh. I think it's the serum.

No. While the fruit has a lot of Vitamin C, the oil contains none.

I use DE vitamin c serum every day and I haven't noticed being orange. Why don't you ask about it on their instagram page? They respond to most comments.
