Most vitamin C serums oxidise before you finish the bottle. This one uses a stabilised derivative at 20%, paired with alpha arbutin and ferulic acid so the brightening comes from three directions rather than one. Used every morning under sunscreen, it lifts the grey cast that pollution and sun leave behind, softens the look of fine lines, and makes existing spots fade faster than they would alone.
Full ingredient rationale for each active is on its own page. If a percentage isn't stated on a product you're considering — ours or anyone's — that's worth asking about.
Three to four drops, pressed into a dry face before anything else. Serums go on thinnest-first.
Let it absorb fully before moisturiser, or you dilute it into the layer above.
Vitamin C without SPF is half a routine. The sun undoes brightening faster than any serum can build it.
Not in this form. SAP is a salt of vitamin C that stays near skin-neutral pH, so you get the dose without the sting or flush that pure L-ascorbic acid causes at the same strength.
Overall brightness and clarity usually shift in three to four weeks. Discrete dark spots take eight to twelve — pigment sits in layers and can only fade as fast as skin renews.
Yes — AgeniQ in the morning, Melaphix at night is the pairing we'd recommend for anyone working on pigmentation seriously. Don't layer them in the same sitting.
