Vitamin C is arguably one of the most talked about ingredients in the skincare game \u2014 but that’s also because it’s one of the most effective. It a nutshell, vitamin C is an antioxidant that neutralises free radicals, or an unstable atom that can damage cells (including those in the skin). Sun exposure, pollution, smoking and general urban lifestyles can. all contribute, eventuating in skin that’s dull, lacklustre and pigmented. But the good news in that an effective topical vitamin C can prevent it from happening \u2014 it’s just all about knowing where to look.<\/p>\n

So with national vitamin C day approaching on April 4, we thought we’d round up some of our favourite formulas for all skin types whether that’s dull, dry or oily (the single common denominator being that they deliver glow in spades). Keep scrolling to shop.<\/p>\n

With time, it should soften the look of skin laxity and fine lines.<\/p>\n

\"\" Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester Serum, $103.<\/span> SHOP NOW<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
