Vitamin C Brightening Serum

Most vitamin C serums oxidize in the bottle and sting on the skin. Ours uses sodium ascorbyl phosphate — a stable form that converts to active vitamin C in the skin — amplified by ferulic acid for double the antioxidant defense.

  • Never oxidizes, never stings
  • Visible glow in about 2 weeks
  • Ferulic acid doubles the protection
