RADIANT-C MD SERUM 12% Vitamin C
Uneven skin tone and dullness are common concerns that a well-formulated vitamin C serum can effectively address.
This formula delivers stabilised vitamin C to brighten the complexion, fade dark spots, and neutralise free radicals that accelerate skin ageing. Regular use helps improve overall radiance and skin clarity.
Ideal for those with hyperpigmentation, dull skin, or anyone looking to boost their antioxidant defence. Suitable for most skin types.
Why this vitamin C form
3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a vitamin C derivative developed for improved chemical stability. That is a formulation consideration, not proof that every derivative serum outperforms L-ascorbic acid. Storage, the complete formula and individual tolerance still matter.
The antioxidant trio
The INCI lists 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Tocopherol and Ferulic Acid. These ingredients contribute different antioxidant properties. Published research on a particular vitamin C, vitamin E and ferulic-acid formulation does not establish the same performance for every formula containing those names.
Brightening context
Vitamin C has been studied for its influence on melanin production as well as its antioxidant activity. In a cosmetic routine, the aim is a more even-looking complexion, not the diagnosis or treatment of a pigmentation disorder.
What 12% tells you
The current product label states 12%. Concentration identifies this formula; it does not establish a universal optimum, guarantee tolerance or make a higher percentage automatically better.
How to use
Follow the product directions. For morning use, allow the serum to absorb before moisturiser and SPF. Antioxidant skincare does not replace sunscreen.
Doctor Curation Note
A vitamin C serum should be chosen with the rest of the routine and the skin's tolerance in mind. Consider the formula rather than concentration alone. Results may vary.
How to use: Apply a few drops to cleansed skin each morning before moisturiser and SPF.
SW1 Doctor Note: Recommended by SW1 aesthetic doctors for its reliable brightening results and antioxidant protection.
