  • “So, this is not airless. That means as long as it's been sitting on the shelf, oxygen has been in here oxidizing this over time”7:26–7:30
  • “This is not opaque. Light is getting through and there's oxygen”7:36–7:39
  • “The negatives are that it's got 12% ascorbic acid. This is a worst for skin of color”
  • “The fourth ingredient in here is denatured alcohol. That's why you're getting very quick dry feel. This is a problem”8:19–8:22
  • “Denatured alcohol leads to premature aging and because it generates free radicals in the skin, the exact opposite of what the vitamin C is trying to do”8:25–8:29
  • “They also added in fragrance and that's what that beautiful smell is”8:32–8:36
  • “This product is a disaster”12:41–12:42
