Dr.Althea Gentle Vitamin C Serum is a lightweight brightening serum for sensitive skin and for anyone just starting with vitamin C. It combines a stable vitamin C derivative with niacinamide and 20% sea buckthorn, which is naturally rich in vitamin C. With regular use, it brightens dull skin, makes dark spots less visible and evens out skin tone, while green tea leaf water adds a soothing effect. An emollient oil-capsule system softens the skin, and the finish stays fresh, hydrated and non-sticky. Safe for acne-prone skin and leaves no yellow tint.
Key Active Ingredients
3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid — a vitamin C derivative that brightens dull skin and helps even out tone.
Niacinamide — supports a more even complexion and helps fade dark spots.
Sea buckthorn (20%) — rich in vitamin C, boosts the brightening effect.
Green tea leaf water — soothes the skin.
Skin Type
Sensitive skin, including acne-prone; a good choice for a first vitamin C.
How to Use
After cleansing and toning, let your skin dry completely. Apply a few drops evenly over the face and pat gently until absorbed, then follow with moisturizer. Use in the morning or evening; when used during the day, always finish with sunscreen. If you are new to vitamin C, start every other day and increase gradually as your skin gets used to it.
