The cold weather can wreak havoc with your skin, but shoppers say they've found the perfect antidote to dull winter complexions.
With hundreds of five-star reviews online, the new vitamin C serum has gone viral, as people rush social media to rave about the wonder product.
One customer hailed the serum in question ‘a winner’, as they wrote: “I recently gave this a try, and let me tell you, it’s like a party for your skin - minus the hangover. The brand’s philosophy of ‘clean-clinical’ skincare means their products are free from suspicious ingredients, which is a huge win in my book.”
Another said the serum has been a ‘game changer’ for their skin. The five-star review reads: “If you are new to vitamin C or just like a gentle but effective formula, this is definitely for you! It’s super lightweight and absorbs into the skin quickly.”
“I've used it a few times already and every single time I have had multiple people commenting on how glowy my skin looks! So far, I love it!”
A third swears the serum is so good, their husband has been stealing it. “This serum is amazing! After the first use it gave me an instant result - glowing hydrated and beautiful skin,” they wrote. “I use it every morning as a part of my skincare routine. My skin is dry and it works perfectly for me. My husband tried it out, he has a normal skin type and it works great for him as well.”
Vitamin C is used to brighten, clarify, and hydrate the skin for a more even complexion. In turn, it can help to reduce blemishes and prevent moisture loss.
If you’re new to using vitamin C, it’s best to introduce it into your skincare routine slowly. Most people apply vitamin C in the morning after cleansing (make sure to apply SPF) but it can also be used on an evening.
If you’re a beginner, you can even mix vitamin C with your favourite moisturiser for extra hydration.
The vitamin C serum everyone is raving about is the latest release from Drunk Elephant. It’s not only been hailed for its brightening properties, but its ‘hydrating benefits, luxurious texture, and clean formulation’ by customers. The brand also highlights that the 10% vitamin C serum is designed to reduce hyperpigmentation and redness.
What’s interesting about this formula in particular is that it's specially designed with sensitive skin in mind - great news if you’ve always wanted to try vitamin C. To ensure it’s safe to use, the product is free from fragrances, essential oils, and silicones. You can even mix the serum with your favourite moisturiser.
One customer uses her serum with moisturiser and has been impressed with the results: “I’ve always been a big vitamin C fan when it comes to my skincare routine, but leave it to Drunk Elephant to do it best! I’ve been mixing this serum into my Bora Barrier cream at night and I’m waking up to baby soft, hydrated skin! I’m in love!”
