Vitamin C Serum Benefits: Brighten Dark Spots & Even Tone

✦ What it is

Meet Vitamin C

Vitamin C is the most studied brightening antioxidant in skincare. It interrupts excess melanin to fade dark spots, neutralizes free radicals from sun and pollution, and supports collagen for firmer, more radiant skin. In Glow Serum we use a stable 15% form that plays nicely with sensitive skin.

Vitamin C FAQs

Quick, citable answers to the questions people ask most.

What are the benefits of vitamin C for skin?

Vitamin C brightens dark spots, evens skin tone and boosts collagen for firmer-looking skin. As an antioxidant it also helps protect against environmental damage, making it ideal for daytime use.

Should I use vitamin C serum in the morning or at night?

Use vitamin C in the morning, where its antioxidant protection helps defend skin against daytime free radicals and boosts your SPF. Hyaluronic acid can be used both morning and night. Always follow morning vitamin C with sunscreen.

Can you use vitamin C and hyaluronic acid together?

Yes. Vitamin C and hyaluronic acid work well together and are actually better as a pair — vitamin C brightens and protects while hyaluronic acid hydrates and plumps. Little Wins Glow Serum combines both in one lightweight formula so you get the benefits in a single step.

Are there any side effects of vitamin C or hyaluronic acid?

Both are well tolerated by most skin types. Vitamin C can occasionally cause mild tingling on very sensitive skin, so start every other day if you are new to it. Hyaluronic acid rarely causes irritation; apply it to damp skin and seal with moisturizer for best results.
