Unlock the Hidden Power of Vitamin C Serum: What the Industry Doesn’t Want You to Know!
Tired of dullness, dark spots, and discoloration stealing your skin’s glow? It’s time to turn to vitamin C—more specifically, a vitamin C serum. Toral Vaidya, MD, a board-certified dermatologist, cites the vitamin as one of the “most studied ingredients in skincare,” known for its abilities to visibly even tone and defend skin against environmental damage like pollution and sun exposure. Dr. Vaidya recommends using a vitamin C serum every morning, after you’ve cleansed your face but before you apply your moisturizer and SPF. Sephora has no shortage of vitamin C serums that will give any skin type a boost in luminosity; here are our top three picks.
The Sephora Collection Super Brightening Serum is enhanced with marine peptides, which help tighten and firm the skin while vitamins C and E visibly increase radiance.
For a gentle formula, Dr. Vaidya recommends formulas with time-release vitamin C, like the Tatcha Brightening & Firming Vitamin-C Serum with Ferulic Acid. This one works to brighten all day, as well as visibly firm with ferulic acid and Japanese plum. To further minimize irritation in general, Dr. Vaidya cautions against combining any vitamin C serum with products containing retinols or alpha-hydroxy acids; reserve these ingredients for nighttime use, and stick to vitamin C in the morning.
