Vitamin C is one of the most researched ingredients in skincare, and one of the most misunderstood. Here is what really makes a formula work, according to our lab.
Why it matters
Antioxidants neutralise free radicals from UV and pollution, support collagen and fade hyperpigmentation.
- Brightens dull, uneven skin tone
- Fades dark spots and post-acne marks
- Boosts the protection of your daily SPF
The best serum is the one that is still active when it reaches your skin.

The bottom line
Choose a stable formula, store it away from light and pair it with daily SPF.
