How to Choose the Right Antioxidant for Your Skin

To help you navigate the world of antioxidants are the leaders in antioxidant skin care, the experts from SkinCeuticals.

Shielding your skin from the damage caused by sun exposure and other environmental aggressors is key to preventing the progression of visible aging, which is why every skin care regimen should include sunscreen and a topical antioxidant serum. These products work hand in hand to minimize the effects of UV rays, pollution and the free radicals they generate. Which SkinCeuticals antioxidant is right for you and your skin? Consider this your guide to making the right decision.

Your skin type: Normal to dry skin with fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness and/or discoloration

Your antioxidant: SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic

If your skin craves a little extra moisture and you’re concerned about visible signs of aging, C E Ferulic is the vitamin C serum for you. It features 15% L-ascorbic acid plus vitamin E and plant-derived ferulic acid to enhance this serum’s antioxidant effect. Studies have proven its power to fight free radicals and improve the appearance of lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness and skin tone.

Your skin type: Normal to oily skin with acne, discoloration and/or visible signs of aging

Your antioxidant: SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF

One advantage of oily skin is that the excess sebum you sometimes struggle with is actually rich in antioxidant vitamin E but you can’t rely on this oil for complete protection against free radicals. Phloretin CF supplements your skin’s natural antioxidant reserves with a combination of 10% L-ascorbic acid, plant-derived ferulic acid and phloretin. It promotes skin cell turnover to improve the appearance of discoloration without sending oil glands into overdrive.

Your skin type: Normal, oily, and combination skin types with acne, discoloration and/or visible signs of aging

Your antioxidant: SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel

Offering the free radical protection and discoloration improvement of Phloretin CF in a first-of-its-kind gel formulation, this is an ideal topical antioxidant for most skin types, including men after shaving. Its potent blend of synergistic antioxidants helps stave off the environmental damage that leads to premature aging and helps reduce already visible signs of aging as it improves skin texture and tone.

No matter which topical antioxidant you choose, you’re stepping up your skin care game by incorporating protection against the free radical damage that can lead to premature aging and skin cancer. When coupled with daily sunscreen, this dynamic duo provides comprehensive environmental protection that will benefit your skin today, tomorrow and for years to come.
