  • 10% Pure vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid): Lauded for its superior antioxidant benefits, this highly potent form of pure vitamin C neutralizes damaging free radicals and protects against oxidative stress while providing visible anti-aging benefits
  • 0.5% Ferulic Acid: A plant-based antixoidant, ferulic acid neutralizes free radicals and enhances the antixoidant benefits of phloretin and vitamins C and E.

Radiant glow

Giving radiant glow but not doing much for discoloration. Did they change the formula?

Phloretin CF antioxidant

I’ve used this product for some time and because Vitamin C is so essential, I feel this goes above and beyond. It’s a great serum and helps minimize dark spots.

Love the Glow!

This is one of the products in my daily routine. I love the light texture, instead of heavy cream. The fact that it helps with discoloration and promotes collagen is a bonus.

The Dermatologist recommended vitamin C

As a dermatologist, I can tell you this is the best researched and most effective vitamin C serum on the market. Its price tag reflects that. Consider it an investment in yourself, you’re worth it! :D

Did not realize what I was missing!

I bought this because my esthetician recommended it to me for some discoloration from sun on my forehead and chest as well as for Vitamin C and protection against environment. After first few uses I didn’t realize what all the hype was about. I decided to use it everyday though and see if anything changed! And WOW!!!! I began to get compliments on my skin everyday by people that know me as well as strangers!!!! I use this in addition to my daily skin medica routine along with the toner from SC before I apply this serum. I’m hooked for life now!!!!

Skin Looks and Feels Great!!

This serum has made a world of difference in my complexion! I had received a sample from my dermatologist and noticed an improvement in my skin almost immediately. The only downsize is the price. I only apply 3-4 drops in the morning so I'm expecting one bottle to last for a while.

Best serum

I have been using Skin Ceuticals CF for many years now. I’m starting to get older and getting a lot of compliments on how young I look. I’m pretty sure between the serum and sunscreen it’s working!!!!

Amazing product!!

I've been using this for probably a year now & I have see great results! I had a lot of scarring which has decreased significantly & my skin tone has evened out. It really works although pricy. I would not keep re-buying it if it didn't make such a difference in my skin!!

Good but I prefer other products from this brand.

Perhaps I didn’t have the target skin issues for this product, but I ended up going back to the tried and true serum from this same brand. Might be better for someone with more scars?

Very light and easy to absorbe

I've been wearing this serum for a couple of years now, I love that it's safe for me considering all of my allergies and, according to my research, also safe for breastfeeding moms. It feels good in the skin, absorbs quickly, not leaving any sticky sensation or smell on your face.

Glowing

I’ve been using this vitamin C serum for a couple of months now and it feels great on my skin, as well as it seems to have toned down my darker sun spots on my face making a more even appearance. Also, it hasn’t caused any breakouts. I will continue to use this serum because it feels and looks great!
