Description

pHformula VITA C Serum is a highly concentrated Vitamin C serum that repairs skin damage caused by free radicals, thus preventing cell oxidation and hyperpigmentation. Suitable for early or mature ageing concerns, including acne-prone skin.

Key ingredients include a powerful triple-action Vitamin C Complex that visibly brightens the skin while increasing collagen synthesis with encapsulated Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate that brightens the skin with immediate effect. A Peptide complex inhibits inflammatory responses and helps repair damage by stimulating collagen production. A Hyaluronic Acid Complex which includes high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, gives an instant boost of hydration and forms an effective skin barrier to prevent transepidermal water loss, together with Glycosaminoglycans, a fundamental component of skin tissue, which is skin replenishing. Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract and Jojoba Oil are superior antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties. Sodium PCA is an important skin-identical ingredient and a great natural moisturiser that helps the skin hold onto water and maintain hydration levels. Contains a fragrance.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: pHformula VITA C Serum is an ingredient-rich serum in the VITA range that offers an innovative tri-complex of Vitamin C along with hyaluronic acid and a unique delivery complex that effectively penetrates the skin to give the skin an instant boost of hydration and radiance. The formulation is a light, creamy serum texture with a subtle citrus undertone. Absorbs immediately with no tacky or oily residue left behind.
