FAQS
How does a Vitamin C 18% Serum differ from other vitamin C serums?
It has got a slightly higher concentration of ascorbic acid coming into play.
- Concentration: This preparation is lightening pigments faster because of a higher concentration rate of an 18% concentration serum. Lower concentrations are available for less sensitive, perhaps more inexperienced skin types. The concentration of the treatment can also be reduced with10% or 15%.
- Efficacy vs Stability: There will be a huge difference at high concentrations that affects stability; therefore a good form, like sodium ascorbate, for that purpose, should be found.
- Formulation: Most vitamin C serums available in France are combined with other active ingredients such as vitamin E, ferulic acid, or hyaluronic acid that enhance hydration and magnify their effects.
- Skin Type Friendly: Concentrations high enough can be effective. However, they might still be too harsh for the skin of some users. Sensitive skin types should be patched first.
- Usage: High concentrations like 18 percent should be applied alternately daily. Low concentration such as 12 percent can be applied daily.
Is Vitamin C 18% Serum suitable for sensitive skin?

- Patch Test: You should test your skin spot before applying the serum.
- Gradual Introduction: You should apply it on alternate days starting with a small amount before you increase your reaction.
- Serums With Calming Agents: You should choose the one containing soothing agents such as hyaluronic acid or aloe vera.
- Lower Concentration: You can use 10% or 15% if irritation.
- Ask your Dermatologist: Ask your dermatologist which of the serums from a vitamin C would best be suited for your skin type.

- Form of Vitamin C: Ascorbic acid is the best but sodium ascorbate and magnesium are gentle and more stable for the skin.

Can I use Vitamin C 18% Serum if I have acne-prone skin?
Yes, Vitamin C 18% Serum could work wonders on an acne-prone skin, but note these:
