WHAT IT IS

Dr. Althea Gentle Vitamin C Serum is a beginner-friendly serum formulated to brighten the skin, improve tone, and reduce the appearance of dark spots, all without irritation. Powered by 5% Niacinamide, 20% Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Extract (a natural vitamin C powerhouse), and 2% Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water, it offers a soothing and effective solution for sensitive skin types. With fewer than 20 ingredients, this calming, acne-safe formula delivers noticeable results while remaining gentle.

KEY BENEFITS

Dark Spot & Tone Correction: Visibly improves pigmentation and evens out skin tone.
Acne-Safe & Soothing: Calms the skin with antioxidant-rich green tea water.
Hydration with a Light Texture: Oil capsule system ensures deep moisture without stickiness.
Anti-Aging Support: Enriched with Allantoin and Adenosine to help improve elasticity and firmness.

HOW TO USE

Cleanse Your Face: Start by washing your face to remove any dirt and makeup. Use lukewarm water and a gentle cleanser.
Tone Your Skin: Apply a toner to refine your skin's texture and boost hydration, which helps enhance absorption for the next steps.
Apply the Serum: Use the dropper to dispense a small amount of serum. Lightly press it onto your face, starting from the center and working outward. Finish by gently tapping your skin to ensure full absorption.
Use Sunscreen: Always remember to follow up with sunscreen in the day. It’s essential to shield your skin from harmful UV rays.

TIPS

Use consistently daily to maintain a radiant, even complexion.

FAQ

(1) Does it oxidize or change color over time?
No, this serum is specifically designed to remain stable. It features a unique "Moisturising - Oil capsule system" where the vitamins are safely preserved by a first coating that keeps them stable even at room temperature. This advanced encapsulation technology significantly reduces the risk of oxidation, ensuring the formula remains effective and does not change colour over time.

(2) Can I use this serum with retinol or AHAs/BHAs?
Yes, this gentle formula is suitable for use with other actives. Its soothing ingredients, like 2% Camellia Sinensis Leaf Water, help to calm the skin, making it a good candidate to pair with potentially irritating ingredients like retinol or AHAs/BHAs. To minimize the risk of irritation, it is recommended to use this serum in your morning routine and reserve stronger exfoliants or retinol for your evening routine, or to use them on alternate days.

(3) When is the best time to apply this serum?
The best time to apply this serum is in the morning. As indicated in the "HOW TO USE" guide, if applied during the day, it is essential to follow up with sunscreen. Using a Vitamin C serum in the morning helps to provide antioxidant protection against free radical damage encountered throughout the day. Its lightweight, quick-absorbing texture also makes it an ideal base for makeup.

(4) Can I use this serum during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
While the serum is formulated to be gentle, acne-safe, and free from many common irritants, it contains active ingredients like Niacinamide. As a standard and important precaution for pregnancy and breastfeeding, it is always essential to consult with your healthcare provider or a dermatologist before introducing any new skincare product into your routine.
