Description
– 5% vitamin C complex: A supercharged, innovative complex of 3 stabilised forms of vitamin C to ensure a more stable and effective brightening formula.
– Niacinamide: Helps even skin tone.
– Ferulic acid: A versatile antioxidant that boosts effectiveness of vitamin C.
The brand-new vitamin C complex in our range contains a synergistic, potent blend of three stabilised forms of vitamin C, each with individual benefits. It is supported by other key ingredients such as ferulic acid to boost the effectiveness of the vitamin C, along with allantoin and niacinamide to replenish the skin barrier.
Why use a complex?
Vitamin C’s pure form, ascorbic acid, is known to be unstable and highly susceptible to oxidation (resulting in it turning brown) via heat, light, air and water, which impacts its effectiveness. Using more stable derivatives of vitamin C in our formula ensures that rate of oxidation is slowed right down, meaning less discolouration and a longer shelf life, so your skin can get all the amazing benefits of vitamin C for longer.
Directions
As well as being a brightening powerhouse, vitamin C also has anti-ageing benefits. It helps with production of collagen, which supports skin structure, resulting in a plumping effect. Using vitamin C and retinol together is a powerful way to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, but we don’t recommend using them together at the same time, so stick to one in the morning and the other at night; use the Vitamin C Fix Eye Cream 10% in your AM routine and the Retinol Fix Eye Treatment 2% in the PM.
Use SPF in the morning as the last step in your routine – we recommend our Illuminating SPF 30 as the final step in your routine. This SPF was specifically designed to protect and illuminate skin after using Vitamin C Fix.
