What's That Smell? Vitamin C or Sunscreen

So, if you've been following me weekly, I've had a kind of lax Vitamin C routine. Can't bring it with me when I'm not at home (since it resides in the fridge), sometimes I don't have the 20 mins to wait for my skin to take it in and balance it out. Sometimes I am just lazy.

However, I have noticed that sometimes I hands smell kind of funny. It's because I lean my face on my hands a lot (wonder why I don't have worse acne actually). Then, after about a week of being too lazy to use Vitamin C, I started it again.

The red OST 20 box lives between some smell jars of ketchup and a half eaten jar of almond butter. Not bad of a location, right?

Anyway, I am not sure what it is, but I am sure that this weird smell I am smelling is me. My very own face. It smells kind of strange. and I honestly think it's the Vitamin C building up and layer unto my skin. It is photoprotective, and I read somewhere that it works four days in, or is it four days since last use? Either way, Vitamin C serum is staying around if applied properly.

Perhaps it's how it mixes in with my sunscreen in the morning, but the smell. O, what a scent. Not pleasant, but not gross. But weird because it's coming from me and now I can smell it all over my hands.

But then again, I smell this mainly in the morning. Perhaps it's the Biore's aftersmell. It does smell a little lemony, but who knows what it smells like afterwards?
