Avis produits Typology à la vitamine C.

Some opinions on Vitamin C.

The Vitamin C used in skincare is synthetically derived. It is typically extracted from grains, such as corn. When applied topically, it is generally very well tolerated. This active ingredient gives the skin a real boost of radiance and protects it from the harmful effects of free radicals due to its antioxidant properties. Here are some opinions on this ingredient with multiple benefits.

Clara CROUX, head of skincare range at Typology, shares her opinion.

" Vitamin C is the quintessential radiance-boosting active ingredient! It is a valuable ally in combating oxidative stress, which is responsible for premature skin aging, thereby delaying the onset of the first signs of aging. It is particularly relevant to use a skincare product containing it during the winter to revive one's complexion and give it a glow. Moreover, its anti-inflammatory properties will soothe any potential redness and skin tightness."

Reviews on our radiance serum.

This radiance face serum contains two main active ingredients: 11% Vitamin C and 3% Albizia Julibrissin extract. Several of our customers have tested it, here are their comments:

  • Sofia S. (05/04/2019) : "I have been using it every day for a month now, and the effects are indeed present: my complexion is brighter. The serum's texture is very pleasant upon application, the skin immediately feels softer. I apply it daily just before my cream. Special mention for the speed of delivery, and for the packaging: the parcel is very small and thin, containing only the essentials, thus not generating too much waste. "

  • Elisa-marie C. (04/10/2019) : "I purchased this serum along with the complete routine (for combination skin) because I have sensitive skin that is dry in some areas but more oily in the T-zone. I love this product that leaves absolutely nothing on the skin but nourishes it deeply. "

  • Swann D. (10/05/2019) : "A very effective product, I've been using it for two weeks and I genuinely look better. It's astonishing! "

Thus, customers agree that the Vitamin C radiance serum has brightened their skin after just a few weeks of use in their beauty routine. For the same result, we recommend applying 3 to 4 drops of this Vitamin C serum on a previously cleansed and dried face morning and evening. Gently massage the face and neck with circular motions. Then apply a moisturizer suitable for your skin type.

Good to know : This vitamin C serum naturally turns yellow over time. This effect does not diminish the product's effectiveness.

Reviews on our tinted serums.

Formulated without nanoparticles and silicones, the tinted serums are non-occlusive and do not clog pores. Enriched with vitamin C for skin radiance and aloe vera for skin hydration, they provide light coverage and even out the skin tone. Here are some feedback about them:

  • Natalia D. (11/19/2020): " Excellent solution for acne-prone skin. The texture is very light. The product does not clog pores. Not comedogenic at all."

  • Michelle A. (10/10/2020): "Perfect complexion without a mask-like effect. Matches my skin tone. No need for a lot of product. With 3 drops and a brush, I apply my serum. Feels light. No clumping/mask effect. My skin can breathe. A very good alternative to foundation. For my part, I alternate with my usual organic BB cream."

  • Gaëlle A. (12/10/2020) : "Perfect for those who want a light finish and to see their skin in transparency, yet the complexion is well unified and luminous. The finish is very natural and the color blends well with the skin. Moreover, I have small patches of dryness that tend to be emphasized with complexion products, which is not the case here. To date, this is the best product in the tinted cream/serum category that I have tested."

Thus, users are satisfied with this product that has a light texture, providing a natural and subtle finish while effectively evening out the complexion.
