[Miscellaneous] Does anyone else think that vitamin C isn't worth it?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've used Ole Henricksen's Truth Serum, Rohto Melano, Timeless, Derma E's serum, and The Ordinary's Vitamin C suspended in silicone.The hunt for a stable form of l-ascorbic acid takes way too much time and seems doomed to failure. I'm using the Timeless now and it turned yellow within a month. It can still be used until it turns orange, but eesh that was fast. It's in airless pump packaging and I keep it in a cupboard out of the light. I know some people keep theirs in the fridge and this prolongs the life of the product, but I am not darting to the kitchen in the middle of my morning routine. Nor am I putting a mini fridge in my bathroom for one product. I can't be the only one who thinks that if I pay for a product I should be able to use it under normal bathroom conditions, can I?I can't tell if any of these are doing a nothing. The Ole Henricksen did nothing. It smelled amazing, but it was a total waste of money. Derma E also smelled amazing and it seemed to temporarily brighten my face when I applied it, but it didn't really fade any hyperpigmentation. The Root Melano, this one is such a pain. There are so many fake sellers online. I did manage to get a real one and it stings, so that made me feel it was doing something (as messed up as that sounds), but they don't reveal the percentage of ingredients in it, and again, did it do anything? I don't know. And the Ordinary's suspended in silicone. This product is a hot mess. It's gritty, it burns, and it balls up on my fingers before I'm even done applying it. It pills like crazy under sunscreen and moisturizer. It's unusable in my opinion.So, anyone else out there just fed up with trying to find a good vitamin C and starting to question if it's worth it or if any of the gazillion options out there even do anything?
