Serum Vitamin C and Creams

Vitamin C is one of the most popular actives in face care, prized for its role in brightening formulas and antioxidant support. Our collection brings together Vitamin C serums and creams from trusted skincare brands, ranging from lightweight everyday formulas to more concentrated options for those already familiar with the ingredient.

How to choose a Vitamin C serum

Vitamin C serums are typically described by their percentage concentration, but a higher number is not automatically the right choice for everyone. Formulas like the GARNIER Fast Bright 10% Pure Vitamin C & Hyaluronic Acid Night Serum or the LA ROCHE POSAY 12% Pure Vitamin C12 Serum are formulated for all skin types and everyday use. If you're new to Vitamin C, starting with a lower or moderate concentration and monitoring how your skin responds is a sensible approach.

More experienced users, or those seeking a multi-antioxidant approach, often look toward formulas such as SKINCEUTICALS CE Ferulic, which combines Vitamin C with ferulic acid, or the VICHY Liftactiv Vitamin C 16% Serum, positioned for both brightening and anti-aging routines. For those wanting a strong, straightforward option, the REVOX B77 Just Vitamin C 20% or the ELEMENTRE 30% Vitamin C Illuminating Serum sit at the higher end of the concentration range.

Choosing within the Vitamin C category

Texture and pairing ingredients matter as much as concentration. Some serums include hyaluronic acid for a lighter, hydrating finish, while others focus purely on the Vitamin C molecule itself. If your skin also deals with oiliness or unevenness, look at formulas that pair Vitamin C with complementary ingredients suited to that skin type, always checking the product label for the full ingredient list. Creams in this collection offer a richer application than serums and can be layered into a morning or evening routine.

As with any new active ingredient, patch-testing and checking the full label is recommended, and our pharmacists are available to help you compare formulas based on your skin type and routine.
