Reviews

CESTA face serum

"This serum leaves the skin with a bright and fresh appearance. It is a very worthwhile investment for skin health. Unfortunately, the price has greatly increased over the years, so it's not very affordable to purchase frequently. A bottle does last me around 6 months."

— Sheila W. (5/5)

"I had a facial with these products and fell in love. They work well for my aging skin. It has brought back suppleness. My skin tends to be on the normal/dry side. I have never had breakouts or irritations form this product."

— Tamara (5/5)

Smells Delicious & The Perfect Base!

"The C-ESTA Serum smells absolutely delicious and creates the perfect smooth base for the rest of my Jan Marini steps. Because I love the results so much, The only downside is I find it tends to run out more quickly than the other products in the system, so I often have to repurchase this before the other products. It keeps my 73-year-old skin looking bright and beautifully firm!"

— Leah (5/5)

Glowing, Hydrated, and Obsessed!

"I have been consistently using the vitamin C serum for 2 months now and not only do I love the smell of it, I love the way it gives my skin that healthy glow and deep moisturizing w/o being greasy! My skin has improved so much but I also use the Transformational Face Cream after I apply the C-Esta Face Serum. The combination seems to be doing wonders for my 50 yr old skin! The C-Esta Serum can stand alone for sure but used together with the Transformational is a winning combo!!!"

— Jenn L. (5/5)

Love this!

"I am on my 2nd kit that includes this! fantastic!"

— Tina (5/5)

"I’ve been using this product for almost 25 years. I get great compliments on my skin and I attribute it to this product"

— Darcey (5/5)

Fantastic product my skin that’s

"Fantastic product my skin that’s never looks so good. I’m 65 years old and people always say I do not lick my age. Thanks to your products. I feel every day that I’m looking my best."

— Tina H. (5/5)

Only Vit C I’ll use

"This is the best vitamin C on market !"

— Shaina R. (5/5)

Pump gives out

"I love the product but the pump gave out half way through the bottle. Very disappointing"

— Joanna (3/5)

Strong scent

"I love the product for what is does to my skin!! I wish the scent was more mild, as strong smells can give me headaches. Haven’t decided if I will purchase it again due to that."

— Barbara P. (4/5)
