What is that weird smell?
If your C Forte smells like the kitchen or like the water that boils your frankfurters, you are not alone. It is a commonly reported smell when Ferulic Acid is paired with L Ascorbic acid. Some people are more sensitive to the smell than others. The good news is that it disappears once you have added your moisturizer (eg Zinc Shade, B Calm or Repair Plus). And most people say the smell is less noticeable as time goes on.
