So…what is vitamin C good for?


Collagen production: Vitamin C helps to stimulate collagen synthesis in the skin. Since vitamin C has acidic properties, it triggers the skin into healing itself and creating new collagen and tissue when it’s applied. Sort of like how muscles get microtears and build themselves back stronger when you exercise. This results in firmer, plumper skin when the new tissue rises to the surface.


Hyperpigmentation: Vitamin C is a melanin inhibitor, which means it proactively helps to lower the body’s production of it. This is extremely useful when you have hyperpigmentation, dark spots, or general discoloration of the skin. Hyperpigmentation usually occurs due to an excess of melanin, which can be triggered by acne scars, injury, or heat even. Using vitamin C can help to greatly reduce the formation of such spots.


Protects against environmental skin stressors: Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant. It guards against oxidation and free radicals, which the skin can accumulate over the course of time. These free radicals can contribute to aging, wrinkles, and other forms of deterioration skin wise. Vitamin C forms a barrier against these stressors to ensure that your skin isn’t harmed.

Juice-C Vitamin C Serum

We suggest that you use Juice-C in the morning to reap the antioxidant benefits and to give your sunscreen a boost for added skin protection from free radicals and environmental stressors. A lot of Vitamin C serums have a liquid consistency, which can increase the potency (and sensitivity) for some people. So we opted for a creamy formula to reduce irritation and to ensure a smooth application. Juice-C should be applied after cleansing and toning but before your moisturizer. Even though Juice-C is technically a serum, it’s creamy, hydrating consistency makes it a great moisturizer on its own as well!


You may have noticed that we’ve had a design change in the packaging for Juice-C recently as well! We wanted to make sure you all were able to get every single last drop of this product and also extend the potency of it. Vitamin C has a reputation for being a bit unstable, ESPECIALLY when it is exposed to air. This new pump will ensure the freshness of this creamy concoction so you can continue to achieve smooth looking skin.
