How To Use
In the morning after cleansing, apply 4-5 drops to a dry face, neck, and chest to promote healthy skin. Apply before other skincare products. May be used on the back of the hands. It is normal for vitamin C products to darken after opening due to air and light exposure. The formula will remain effective. Once opened, it is recommended to be used within 3 months of opening.
Complete your regimen with a SkinCeuticals sunscreen. When used together, SkinCeuticals antioxidants and broad spectrum sunscreens provide more comprehensive protection against visible aging caused by environmental aggressors.

Science & Proof

It is formulated under the Duke Antioxidant patent. Vitamin C is a highly-potent antioxidant that by its structure has difficultly being effectively absorbed by on skin. The Duke Antioxidant patent describes the formulation parameters required for effective delivery of vitamin C to skin: 1) pure l-ascorbic acid (vitamin C); 2) an acidic pH within the 2.0-3.5 pH range and; 3) a concentration between 10%-20%. SkinCeuticals is the only brand to formulate antioxidants according to these parameters.

Left skin feeling smooth!
I purchased this recently with my normal cleanser to compliment my sun protection regimen. It was not greasy and left my skin feeling smooth and soft. It will be my new buddy to sunscreen to prevent damage on daily basis!

Everyone should be using this
I started using Skinceuticals Vitamin C 20% in my 30's, within weeks it corrected my crepey eyes caused by too much sun growing up. I'm in my 50's and my skin still looks like I'm in my 30's with no sun damage. This product should be an important part of everyone's skincare.

This product is amazing with all the benefits
I love this product. I have been using skin ceuticals for the past 12 years and my skin always looks amazing and I have prevented a lot of wrinkles with the use of these products. If I could literally bathe in these products I would.
