With summer days approaching quickly, it’s time to give your skin some extra love and make it glow. We are all longing for warmer days, tanned skin and a dewy, radiant complexion, so let’s make this happen. During the winter, your skin will likely need different things than it will in summer and therefore, we recommend updating your skincare routine for the upcoming season. Add a Vitamin C serum to your routine to achieve that glowy look and prepare your skin for summer 2022.
WHAT DOES A VITAMIN C SERUM DO?
Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbic acid, is a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from free radical damage, a known cause of premature ageing.
As we get older, our collagen production slows down, which will cause our skin to start sagging, lose its elasticity and reveal fine lines and wrinkles. By using a Vitamin C Serum, your skin’s natural collagen production will be stimulated, resulting in glowing, youthful-looking skin. Besides having anti-ageing properties, a Vitamin C serum will also help to give your skin a brighter, more radiant complexion.
The benefits don’t stop there, Vitamin C is very effective at giving your sunscreen an extra boost, as it helps to protect your skin from damage caused by the sun. In short, if there’s one product that should definitely be included in your summer skincare regimen, it’s a Vitamin C serum.
WHAT IS THE BEST VITAMIN C SERUM?
When you start your search for a Vitamin C Serum, you will likely come across a wide range of options. So wide, that it might start to stress you out. Thankfully, we have listed the best Vitamin C Serums for your skin so your decision is narrowed down to a small list. The Obagi Professional-C® Portfolio consists of products that contain Vitamin C to boost collagen production, give your skin a glowing complexion and protect your skin from damage caused by UV rays. Obagi Professional-C® Serum is a luxurious and intense Vitamin C serum that is available in three different strengths: 10%, 15% and 20%. Depending on your skin type and your previous experience with Vitamin C products, you can decide what strength works best for you. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend going for the 10% Vitamin C serum.
WHAT BENEFITS DOES THE OBAGI PROFESSIONAL-C® SERUM HAVE?
The Vitamin C serum by Pure Obagi is known for its effectiveness in fighting the signs of ageing. Over time, ageing skin develops fine lines, wrinkles and it will lose its elasticity and firmness, with saggy skin as a result. Obagi Professional-C® Serum contains between 10-20% L-ascorbic Acid, which helps to stimulate collagen production and makes your skin look more youthful. When the serum is used in combination with the entire Obagi Professional-C® Portfolio, your skin will rapidly show improvement.
ANOTHER FAVOURITE: OBAGI-C® FX CLARIFYING SERUM
If you’re looking for a serum that will effectively brighten your skin, the Obagi-C® Fx Clarifying Serum will meet all your desires. This serum contains both 10% L-ascorbic Acid and 7% Arbutin, a clinically proven skin-brightening and pigmentation-busting agent. Arbutin is an ingredient that helps to improve your skin’s appearance of hyperpigmentation which will create a more even complexion. The perfect serum for summertime, if you ask us!
