The Dr. Althea Gentle Vitamin C Serum is a cornerstone of minimalist skincare: formulated with a stable vitamin C derivative and niacinamide to ensure safe brightening even for sensitive skin types, while fortifying the face with milk thistle and green tea to protect against environmental damage, helping to keep pores clear and reduce inflammation.
Why will you love it?
- Stable formula: Ethylated vitamin C oxidizes less and is much gentler on the skin than traditional pure ascorbic acid.
- Intensive spot lightening: The combination of vitamin C and niacinamide effectively combats pigmentation spots and stubborn post-acne discoloration.
- Antioxidant shield: Its high sea buckthorn content naturally slows down the aging process and protects cells from oxidative stress.
- Anti-inflammatory effect: With 2% green tea leaf hydrosol, it soothes acne-prone or irritated skin, providing a refreshing sensation.
- Minimalist formula: A short and clean ingredient list containing only the most essential, high-quality active ingredients.
- For all skin types: Thanks to its lightweight texture, whether you have mature, oily, or dry skin, this serum can be seamlessly incorporated into any routine.
Key active ingredients:
- Vitamin C (stable derivative): Brightens the complexion, stimulates collagen production, and improves the skin’s natural firmness.
- Sea buckthorn fruit extract: “The king of vitamins,” which intensively regenerates, reduces wrinkles, and imparts a healthy glow.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Strengthens the hydrolipid barrier, refines pores, and evens out the skin’s surface.
- Green tea leaf hydrosol: A natural antibacterial and soothing ingredient that effectively reduces inflammatory processes.
Directions for use: After cleansing and toning your face, apply 2–3 drops of serum to your face, avoiding the eye area, then gently pat it in until fully absorbed! For best results, use every morning and finish your routine with a moisturizer and sunscreen. Tip: Vitamin C and sunscreen enhance each other’s effectiveness, so together they provide the most reliable protection against dark spots!
