Whether you have chronic acne, or periodic breakouts– who among us hasn't sought an effective topical treatment to eradicate those troublesome breakouts?! While I seldom have breakouts, they do happen occasionally, and when they do I want something effective and fast-acting to heal the skin and eliminate the pimples. I am very happy to say that I am thrilled by the efficacy of the Vitabrid C¹² Spot Essence and Vitabrid C¹² Spot Powder. I suspected that I would love them because of my elation with the Vitabrid C¹² FACE Brightening Powder (Reviewed HERE), and I was right!
Vitabrid C¹² Spot Essence ($32.00 for 1 oz. from Barneys New York): This hydrating and healing essence can either be mixed with the Vitabrid C¹² Spot Powder for maximum efficacy, or it can be used alone. Unlike many acne topical treatment, this is neither drying, nor does it irritate the surrounding skin. It can be used all over the face, or it can be used to spot treat blemishes and control excessive oil production. It heals breakouts while leaving skin soft, hydrated and brightened.According to Vitabrid C¹²,
Intended for use with the brand's SPOT Powder, Vitabrid C¹²'s SPOT Essence is a specially-formulated solution that controls oil while hydrating the skin for a clean, healthy-looking complexion. This soothing product can be applied to troubled spots with skin imperfections or to the entire face.
Directions: This soothing product can be applied to troubled spots with skin imperfections or to the entire face. It can be used alone, or it can be mixed with the Vitabrid C¹² Spot Powder.
Vitabrid C¹² Spot Powder ($25.00 for 0.04 oz. from Barneys New York): Vitabrid C¹² SPOT Powder is a very effective spot treatment that can either be mixed with the Vitabrid C¹² SPOT Ampoule, which I do not have, or the Vitabrid C¹² Spot Essence to heal breakouts. It only takes a tiny amount to treat impacted areas. I suggest mixing a very small amount at first and then mixing more as needed. I have found that any potential drying effects from this powder are mitigated by mixing it with the Spot Essence, but if you are having serious breakouts and find that repeated use is drying out your skin, then mixing it with the Essence is a great idea, and you may need to use a trusted lotion that won't break you out afterward. I have found that the combination of these two products knock down the redness and heal the breakouts within a day or two. One of the wonderful benefits of Vitabrid C¹²'s use of Vitamin C is its remarkable ability to brighten the complexion and fade discoloration.
According to Vitabrid C¹²,
Tailored for brightening, anti-wrinkle, and anti-aging benefits, Vitabrid C¹²'s SPOT Powder is a targeted formula that delivers active vitamin C to the skin over the course of 12 hours to effectively clear and repair the complexion. This powerful product provides excellent sebum control, offers antibacterial benefits, and decreases recovery time of the troubled area.
Directions: Mix an appropriate amount of the powder with one or two drops of a Vitabrid C¹² SPOT Ampoule, or similar product of your choice, in the palm of your hand. Apply the mixture to the troubled area. Since I do not have the Vitabrid C¹² SPOT Ampoule, I mix it with the Vitabrid C¹² Spot Essence.
Ingredients:
Overall Assessment: If you have acne, or periodic breakouts, Vitabrid C¹² Spot Powder and Spot Essence offer a very effective way to treat and heal the skin. A+Press Sample. All views expressed are categorically my own (Affiliate Links)

I remember you and Marcia writing about the Face Brightening C Powder. I don’t have breakouts, but I will try to remember this brand to suggest to others who need it
ReplyDeleteThe Face Brightening Powder is fantastic! This range of products is definitely effective for people prone to acned or periodic breakouts. Definitely an unnecessary range of products for your skin!
DeleteVitabrid is a great line. I love the Face Brightening Powder and need to replace it when I'm back from vacation. I'm taking their Dual Mask with me on my trip and I can't wait for a spa day of my own making when I'm gone. My blog partner Lisa loves the two products you reviewed today.
ReplyDeleteI wholeheartedly agree, Marcia! I love the Face Brightening Powder too! What a great idea to take their Full Mask with you on your trip– a spa day on vacation sounds absolutely perfect!
DeleteI was reading the ingredients but couldn’t see Vitamin C, please correct me if I missed it
ReplyDeleteAscorbic Acid is the second ingredient on the list of the Spot Powder that is supposed to be mixed with the Spot Essence.
DeleteI used their brightening powder. What great stuff! I think everyone needs to know about this skincare line. So many amazing products for all kinds of skin issues.
ReplyDeleteTheir Brightening Powder is great stuff, I agree! This is most definitely a brand that skincare enthusiasts need to know about. It is so effective!
DeleteWhat a fabulous find! I sometimes get a monthly pimple so this is good to keep in mind.
ReplyDeleteThey are really effective at eliminating breakouts!
DeleteI wish I wasn't allergic to Vit C - it's supposed to be so good for your skin!
ReplyDeleteIt is great for the skin, but definitely not for people with sensitivities or allergies to Vitamin C!
DeleteI want to try out a Vit C powder, because it will be more stable and long-lasting than the solutions, all of which eventually oxidise. The spot treatment sounds perfect for acne!
ReplyDeleteIt definitely is far more stable in the powder form than in solutions– which all do oxidize. The spot treatment is really effective at treating breakouts and acne.
DeleteI love trying new spot treatments, especially one that doesn't dry out skin!
ReplyDeleteThese are really effective!
