How to use
Cleanse your face thoroughly and pat dry. Apply 2 to 3 drops of serum to your fingertips. Gently press and massage into the skin using upward motions across the face and neck. Allow the serum to absorb fully for 60 seconds before applying moisturiser. Use morning and evening for best results. Always apply SPF during the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When is the best time to apply a Vitamin C serum?A: Morning is ideal - apply it after cleansing and before your SPF moisturiser. Vitamin C works with your skin's defence system throughout the day, helping to fight daily external damage.
Q: How long before I see results from a Vitamin C serum?A: Most people notice skin looking brighter and more even within 4 to 6 weeks of daily use. For the best results, be consistent and always follow with SPF to protect the skin and support the brightening process.
