Vitamin C serum FAQs

1. What does a vitamin C serum do for your face? 

Vitamin C serum is a skin care powerhouse that offers multiple benefits. It aids in collagen production, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As a potent antioxidant, it also protects your skin from damaging free radicals caused by environmental stressors like UV exposure and air pollution. Vitamin C serum can help brighten your skin, fade dark spots, minimize inflammation and help improve overall skin texture.

2. Is vitamin C serum for everyday use? 

Yes, most vitamin C serums can be used daily. It's best applied in the morning to help protect your skin from daily environmental aggressors.

3. When to use vitamin C serum day or night?

Vitamin C serums are best used during the day (between toning and moisturizing), offering antioxidant protection against UV rays and environmental pollutants. However, they can also be used at night for their skin-repairing and brightening benefits.

4. Can you use vitamin C serum while pregnant? 

Yes, vitamin C serums are generally safe to use during pregnancy. However, it's always best to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new skin care regimen during pregnancy.

5. Can I use vitamin C serum after microdermabrasion? 

Yes, applying a vitamin C serum after microdermabrasion as a post-procedure skin care solution can help speed up the healing process, promote collagen production and enhance the brightening effect of the treatment.

6. What to look for in a vitamin C serum? 

When shopping for a vitamin C serum, look for serums that contain a stable form of vitamin C. The concentration should be between 10-20% for optimal effectiveness. Also, ensure the product is packaged in a dark or opaque bottle to prevent degradation.

Additionally, keep an eye out for vitamin C serums formulated with vitamin E and/or ferulic acid, as these help improve the stability and absorbency of active vitamin C in the serum. One beloved vitamin C serum boasting all of the above is the cult-favorite SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic Acid Serum.

7. Is vitamin C good for rosacea? 

Vitamin C has anti-inflammatory properties that may help soothe the redness and inflammation associated with rosacea. It also helps to strengthen the skin's barrier function, which can be compromised in individuals with rosacea. To shop a list of recommended vitamin C serums for rosacea-prone skin, simply filter your search by “concern–rosacea.”

8. Can you use vitamin C serum and hyaluronic acid together? 

Yes, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid can be used together. They each offer unique benefits: Vitamin C provides antioxidant protection and brightens the skin, while hyaluronic acid helps to hydrate and plump the skin. Using them together can amplify their effects, leading to a more radiant and hydrated complexion.
