Dermalogica's exceptionally high-performing vitamin C serum doesn't assail your skin with alien mechanisms and ingredients, but rather works with your body to brighten and firm up a complexion.

The innovative formula is optimised by advanced bio-technology, which draws the most from the already impressive list of ingredients assembled. Ultra-stable vitamin C is paired up with palmitoyl tripeptide-5, a complex that plays a big part in minimising the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As such, this formula is far better at delivering vitamin c than most comparable products – and that includes those which boast higher concentrations.

On top of this, lactic acid is included for its excellence at stimulating cell turnover, salvia hispanica for its hydrating, free-radical quenching benefits, and sophora japonica flower extract for its proven efficacy at lessening oxidative stresses. We weren't lying about the potent ingredients.

So where exactly does this leave you, the skincare-conscious? Put simply, you're left with is a nastiness-free formula that reduces imbalanced pigmentation through exfoliation, lifts away fine lines and wrinkles, and keeps your skin safe from free radical damage. That's a lot to absorb, not least for your skin!
