Protecting your skin from sun damage is the absolute starting point in medical aesthetics. It’s about skin health. Everything else is secondary.
Incorporating a vitamin C antioxidant serum into your morning skincare routine is the best way to protect your skin against environmental pollutants and free radical damage which cause visible signs of aging. All of SkinCeuticals’ antioxidant products provide equally powerful protection from the sun to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, restore radiance and uniform skin tone, and improve skin laxity. They also increase wound healing.
Vitamin C serums should be used in the morning only and applied to clean, dry skin. Layering your antioxidant under your sunscreen will give you a more robust UVA/UVB protection and unlike sunscreens, it doesn’t need to be reapplied throughout the day. It won’t come off with sweating.
However, how do you know which serum is right for you?
