What’s a vitamin C serum?

If you have your head in the skincare game, you’ve likely heard of vitamin C serums.

Vitamin C is touted as one of the best anti-aging ingredients on the market — and the key to maintaining a smooth, even, and glowy complexion.

Although you’re probably getting vitamin C in your diet, there’s no way to guarantee it’s going straight to your skin. Using serums and other topical products is the most direct way to reap these benefits.

Read on to learn why you should add vitamin C serum to your routine, how to introduce a new product, and more.

Benefits

There are plenty of benefits to using vitamin C on your skin. They include:

1- Safe for  Skin 

Vitamin C safe for most skin types. It has an excellent safety profile Trusted Source. Most people can use topical vitamin C for an extended period of time without experiencing any adverse reactions.

2- Hydration

Vitamin C penetrates the skin best in the form of ascorbic acid. It decreases trans epidermal water loss (TEWL), allowing your skin to better retain moisture.

3- Brightening and Lightning the Skin

Vitamin C Serum can help fade pigmentation (more on this below!) and smooth the skin’s surface to reduce dullness. This gives skin a youthful glow.

Vitamin C can help fade dark spots and general dullness that prevent you from getting that dewy glow.

4- Reduce Redness

According to another trusted source Vitamin C has also been shown to act as an anti-inflammatory agent through its antioxidant capacity.

This means it soothes your skin and reduces puffiness, letting your face shine through.

Neutralize free radicals that cause oxidative damage. Optimize the immune system to discourage inflammatory immune response.

Vitamin C Serum can also help reduce redness, which in turn can create a more even complexion. The combined reduction of dark spots, redness, and irritation make for a clear, smooth skin tone.

5- Reduce Hyperpigmentation

Since it impedes melanin production, vitamin C can actually fade hyperpigmentation.

Hyperpigmentation , including sunspots, age spots, and melasma , occurs when melanin is overproduced in certain areas of the skin.

Vitamin C widely used in dermatology for depigmentation of hyperpigmented spots on the skin.

6- Reduces the Appearance of Under-eye Circles

Vitamin C Serums can help smooth out fine lines by plumping and hydrating the under-eye area. Although Vitamin C Serum is more effective at reducing overall redness, some people say it can help alleviate discoloration associated with under-eye circles.

Vitamin C in the form of 10 percent sodium ascorbate was found to improve dark circles of the lower eyelid after 6 months of use by thickening the eyelid dermis and concealing dark coloration due to congested blood.

7- Promotes Collagen Production

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that depletes over time. Lower levels of collagen can lead to fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C is well known for boosting collagen production.

This is because vitamin C is the essential cofactor for the two enzymes required for collagen synthesis:

• Prolyl hydroxylase, which stabilizes the collagen molecule

• Lysyl hydroxylase, which provides structural strength

• Check out five other ways to boost collagen production.

8- May help Prevent Sagging

Collagen production is tied to skin elasticity and firmness. When your collagen levels begin to drop, your skin may begin to sag.

Applying a vitamin C serum may boost collagen production, resulting in an overall tightening effect.

This is true for sagging due to natural aging, oxidative stress damage, or extreme weight loss. This means it can help reduce the appearance of sagging skin, making your skin look firmer and more toned.

9- My Protect Against Sun Damage

Excessive exposure to oxidant stress via pollutants or UV irradiation is associated with depleted vitamin C levels in the skin. Vitamin C Serum levels are also lower in aged or photodamaged skin, though researchers are unsure whether this is a cause or effect.

Sun damage is caused by molecules called free radicals. These are atoms with a missing electron.

Vitamin C is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants protect healthy skin cells by “giving” these free radicals an electron, rendering them harmless.

10- May Soothe Sunburns

In addition to minimizing redness, vitamin C accelerates cell turnover, according to a 2013 reviewTrusted Source. This replaces the damaged cells with healthy new ones.

Topical application of vitamin C, in combination with vitamin E and other compounds, has also been shown to reduce injury due to UV irradiation.

11- May help Wound Healing

Given its effects on sunburn, it should be no surprise that vitamin C application can speed up overall wound healing. Healthy wound healing reduces your risk of inflammation, infection, and scarring.
