Vita-C Glycolic Serum works on two levels. Gold-stabilized vitamin C defends against dark spots, uneven tone, and UV damage — the visible signs of hormonal aging. Glycolic acid exfoliates dulling surface cells to enhance vitamin C delivery.
The Science
Most serums stop at the surface. Vita-C goes deeper — by design.
Helps exfoliate away dead skin cells to clear the way for vitamin C to better absorb into the skin, rather than sitting on the surface.
1
Gold-Stabilized Vitamin C
More potent. More stable. Delivers the brightening and dark spot correction that was actually clinically tested.
2
Glycolic Acid
Exfoliates dead skin cells to open the path — so vitamin C doesn't just sit on the surface.
3
Phyto-Luminescent Complex
Transforms UV exposure into skin-radiating luminosity — the lit-from-within glow that shows up even indoors.
