Choosing the best vitamin C serum for your skin can be an overwhelming task. With so many options available, it's hard to know which vitamin c serum will truly deliver the best results for your individual skin.

6 Glowing Tips for Best Vitamin C Serums - Dr W Watts of Watts Beauty USA

 

When it comes to vitamin C serums, the key to obtaining maximum results is finding a serum that is not only stable and effective but also suitable for your skin type. While these steps may seem simple enough, they are the most overlooked as hype blurs focus on what matters most.

1. Form of Vitamin C

Look for a product that contains an effective yet stable form of vitamin C, such as Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (stable and gentle on the skin) or L-ascorbic Acid (more potent and stabilized when combined with Ferulic Acid). These forms of vitamin C are known for their effectiveness in brightening the skin, reducing hyperpigmentation, and boosting collagen production.

2. Packaging

Vitamin C is a highly unstable ingredient that can easily degrade and oxidize when exposed to air and light. To ensure the potency of the serum, choose a product that comes in a dark-colored or opaque bottle. Additionally, look for serums that have a pump or dropper dispenser to minimize exposure to air.

With over 58 years of combined experience, both Dr. W. Watts and Terri Watts of Watts Beauty USA and Watts Power Teeth Whitening are shocked at the vast numbers of vitamin c, peptide and retinol serums that are purchased in clear bottles. Sadly, there are tons of active serums sold on popular auction sites that have absolutely no potency by the time it is sold as they are packaged in clear bottles and light has inactivated all of the active ingredients, taking potency to absolute zero...

3. Ingredient List

Take a close look at the ingredient list of the vitamin C serum you are considering. Look for additional beneficial ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ferulic acid, vitamin E and arginine, as they can enhance the overall effectiveness of the serum. While prices vary greatly, there is an effective vitamin c serum out there for any budget. Below we compare two top selling vitamin c serums along with prices...

4. Potency

The potency of a vitamin C serum is determined by the concentration of vitamin C it contains. Look for serums with a concentration of at least 10% to ensure maximum effectiveness. However, if you have sensitive skin, it's best to start with a lower concentration and gradually increase it over time. It's also important to note that vitamin C serums are most effective when they are fresh. So be sure to purchase from a company that has decades of experience and stands behind a satisfaction guarantee...

5. Best Vitamin C Serum for Your Skin Type:

Consider your skin type and personal preference when choosing a serum with the right texture and absorption rate for you. The texture and absorption of a vitamin C serum can vary from product to product. Some serums have a lightweight, watery consistency that absorbs quickly into the skin, while others may have a thicker, oil-based texture. 

Sensitive, Mature or Dry Skin: Choose a vitamin c serum with hyaluronic for a hydrating boost.

Oily, Mature or Combination Skin: While serums are more potent, vitamin c creams are available but most users don't realize that the included moisturizing emollients in the cream will hinder some of the super powers of the vitamin c. A better option for maximum effectiveness is to apply a vitamin c serum first, then follow with a pore-friendly fusion creams, collagen cream or soothing algae oil.

6. Reviews and Recommendations

If you aren't aware, we are in a time when reviews have been discredited as fakes and removed by the hundreds of thousands from large marketplaces, submitted by bots or influencer driven by so called experts with absolutely no real product experience. This makes it is almost impossible to determine what is real and what isn't. So sure before making a purchase, take the time to read some of the reviews and recommendations from other users. Look for reviews that go beyond a few months and even a decade to ensure authenticity. Look for feedback on the serum's effectiveness, texture, and overall experience from a reviewer that has the same skin type and concerns as you do. But most importantly, purchase from a company that has decades of experience in the skincare industry, is made in the USA and support a purpose driven company. This research before purchase will provide you with valuable insights and help you make an informed decision. 

THE TAKEAWAY:

Remember, consistency is key when using a vitamin C serum. Incorporate it into your skincare routine by applying it to clean, dry or damp skin in the morning before moisturizer and sunscreen. Over time, you will start to see the benefits of a brighter, more youthful complexion.

Remember, finding the best vitamin C serum for your skin is optimal and may require some trial and error. What works for one person may not work for another. Be patient and persistent in your search, and don't be afraid to try different serums until you find the one that gives you the results you desire.

By following these guidelines and considering the factors mentioned above, you'll be well-equipped to choose the best vitamin C serum for your skin. Enjoy the benefits of this powerful antioxidant and achieve a brighter, more youthful complexion.
