Beloved by dermatologists for its brightening and anti-aging properties, vitamin C is an ingredient that should be part of your skincare routine, regardless of your age or skin type. According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), the water-soluble vitamin (also known as l-ascorbic acid) plays an essential role in your complexion’s production of collagen and elastin.Ahead of National Vitamin C Day on April 4, we rounded up seven of our favorite serums featuring the powerful antioxidant, all available at Ulta Beauty.L’Oréal Revitalift Derm Intensives Vitamin C SerumThis powerful anti-aging vitamin C serum delivers radiance on day one of use — and promises you’ll see a visible reduction in fine lines within a week.
