Ask any beauty editor or dermatologist what topical antioxidant ingredient they recommend looking out for and chances are vitamin C will be mentioned. This is because vitamin C boasts skin benefits that are really, really worth it. Among those benefits? Skin that’s softer, and appears visibly brighter.By now there are more vitamin C serums, concentrates, and creams on the market than we could count. Some do not have high concentrations of the ingredient or the product may come in a transparent bottle. Since vitamin C can break down in sunlight, any product containing this ingredient should be in a dark bottle to ensure prolonged efficacy. As board-certified dermatologist, and Skincare.com consultant, Dr. Michael Kaminer once told Skincare.com, some vitamin C products aren’t backed by enough science. His recommendation? Find one that is. And that’s precisely where we’d like to draw your attention to Lancôme’s upcoming vitamin C product launch: Visionnaire Skin Solutions 15% Vitamin C Night Concentrate.
