Vitamin C Serum

FAQ

• How soon will I see results? +

  With steady daily use, most people see clear gains in skin tone and texture in 4-6 weeks, and the full effect can take up to 3 months. Individual results may vary.

• Is it safe to combine with retinol, niacinamide or exfoliants? +

  Yes, all three. The old warning that vitamin C and niacinamide clash comes from lab conditions, not real-life routines, so pair them freely. For retinol and exfoliants, save them for the evening and use the serum in the morning. It isn't a compatibility issue; it simply lets each active work on its own.

• What did the clinical study actually show? +

  Essex Testing Clinic ran an independent 8-week clinical study for us with 34 participants. These are the complete results:

  94% saw visibly brighter skin

  94% saw faded discoloration

  94% skin texture felt smoother

  91% saw more even skin tone

  100% skin texture felt softer

  91% saw improved skin clarity

  Plus 0% reported irritation at any point during the full 8 weeks.

• Will it work on oily or acne-prone skin? +

  Yes. The serum won't clog pores and is gentle on acne-prone skin; every skin type can use it, and with time it may help fade the look of acne marks.

• What causes the amber color, and how can I tell it hasn't gone bad? +

  The amber tint is natural. It's how the formula looks from day one, and it doesn't mean the serum has spoiled. Our sodium ascorbyl phosphate (SAP) is sturdier than L-ascorbic acid and resists oxidation, so it keeps its strength to the last drop instead of turning brown on your shelf within weeks. Store it away from direct sunlight and plan to swap in a fresh bottle roughly six months after you open it.

• What is the consistency like? +

  This Vitamin C Serum has a thin, gel-like consistency and sinks into skin fast and without effort.

• Can I use it twice a day? +

  Mornings are our suggestion, but you can also put it on at night as long as no other serum is in your routine.

• Does this work well under makeup? +

  Yes, the light formula soaks in quickly and gives makeup a great foundation.

• Does this have a fragrance? +

  We never add synthetic fragrance. The scent comes from the ingredients: konjac root, chamomile and clary sage lend a mild plant-based aroma that disappears about a minute after application. Skipped vitamin C because of the odor? Give this one a go.
