Benefits 

Vitamin C has many benefits for your skin such as hydration, brightening, reducing redness, reducing hyperpigmentation, promotes collagen production, prevents sagging skin, protects against sun damage, soothes sunburns, help wounds heal, and much more!

It is important to point out that it is also safe for most skin types which makes it well loved by so many!

Keeping your skin hydrated is super important to achieve that glowing skin but also aids in the aging process. According to a 2019 study by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, an antipollution, antioxidant serum containing Deschampsia antarctica extract, ferulic acid, and vitamin C reduced TEWL (Transepidermal Water Loss) which allows your skin to retain moisture better by 19 percent, improving the skin barrier function!!

Vitamin C also acts as an anti-inflammatory. So what does that mean?  It neutralizes free radicals that cause oxidative damage and optimizes the immune system to discourage inflammatory immune response. Not only are you glowing but you are glowing while protecting against environmental damage! 

Skin Ceauticals is known for their amazing vitamin C serums and one in particular that is an “allure” award winner is the C E FERULIC! 

How to use Vitamin C?

It is important to note that although Vitamin C is normally tolerated great on the skin, all skin products that you are trying out that are new to you should be patch tested to know your risk of allergic relation just in case!

In the morning after cleansing, apply 4-5 drops of the serum to a dry face, neck, and chest before other skincare products. This may also be used on backs of the hands. It is normal for vitamin C products to darken after opening due to air and light exposure. A good rule of thumb is to cleanse, tone, apply vitamin C serum, and then moisturize!
