SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic
A daytime vitamin C serum is introduced here, aiming to provide advanced environmental protection and improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness, and uneven skin tone.
This product is described as suitable for normal, dry, and combination skin types, targeting concerns related to anti-aging, sun damage, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Named C E Ferulic, the serum contains a synergistic antioxidant combination of 15% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), 1% vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), and 0.5% ferulic acid.
The claimed benefits include visible improvements in lines and wrinkles, firmness, and complexion brightness, as well as addressing dullness and uneven skin tone. Additionally, it is said to enhance environmental protection against various sources of aging and damage caused by free radicals.
Noteworthy points include the serum's long-lasting effectiveness (up to 72 hours post-absorption), the expected darkening of vitamin C products after opening, its paraben-free formulation, and suitability for use post-laser procedures (with physician consultation advised).
Instructions for usage involve applying 4-5 drops onto the palm, gently pressing onto the face, neck, and chest, and massaging into the skin in small, circular motions. It is recommended to complete the regimen with a SkinCeuticals mineral sunscreen for comprehensive protection.
Key ingredients include 15% L-ascorbic acid, 1% alpha tocopherol, and 0.5% ferulic acid, along with additional ingredients listed in the formulation.
The serum is presented in a 30 ml size.
