✨ A Little Ritual, A Lot of Glow
There’s something intimate about the way this serum shows up for me. I’ve used Buttah Skin’s Vitamin C Serum for over six months now, and it’s become a staple in my nightly routine—so much so that it deserves a moment in the journal.
Somewhere between good habits and a nightly ritual, it’s earned its place.
🧡 Why I Chose It
Skincare was part of my upbringing. I moved from Clinique to Mary Kay, then to Fenty—yes, I’m one of Rihanna’s biggest fans and using her products felt natural (and luxurious). But after years of pouring into her billion-dollar legacy, I felt called to make space for other Black-owned beauty brands.
Enter Dorion Renaud’s Buttah Skin line.
As an intentional consumer and avid supporter of Black entrepreneurs, trying this serum felt like a small but meaningful shift. It aligned with my values—and promised a glow I couldn’t resist.
🌿 My Experience (And Why I’m Still Using It)
This Vitamin C Serum is lightweight, non-greasy, and settles into the skin so effortlessly, it feels like the missing piece your routine’s been waiting for. After washing and toning, I apply it and wait the recommended 30 seconds before moisturizing. And those 30 seconds? I treat them like a mini-mindfulness session. I breathe. I give thanks for that intentional pause. It’s as if the serum is soaking in and softly whispering: your long-term glow is on the way.
I’ve used it consistently for 90+ nights. Now, six months later, my skin is noticeably brighter and feels more balanced. Whether I’m in a dry or humid climate, this serum has adapted right alongside me. It doesn’t just work—it partners with my skin to produce a soul glow better than Chocolate Thunder’s drip from coming to America.
Honestly, it reminds me of a cool glass of orange juice on a sunny balcony while waiting for the rosé to chill. (Yes, it’s that refreshing.)
