Honestly,
vitamin C serums
“high concentration = the right answer.”
tend to be seen as
But in reality,
the suitable concentration varies significantly depending on skin type.
In particular,
products with over 25% pure vitamin C
are geared toward intensive care.
While they are effective at targeting pores and dullness,
they can sometimes be irritating for sensitive or dry skin.
If you are a beginner,
it is easier to start with balanced options like
MEDIHEAL, NATURE REPUBLIC, or capsule serums.
If you are experienced with skincare,
high-concentration pure Vitamin C products like
Lialuster or KisoCare are also good candidates.
When using Vitamin C serum,
be sure to pair it with sunscreen if using it in the morning.
Even when using it at night,
it is recommended that those prone to dryness layer on plenty of moisturizer.
