Provides Gentle Antioxidant Protection

Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a stable Vitamin C derivative that helps defend skin against oxidative stress and free radical damage.

Brightens + Evens Tone

Consistent Vitamin C use helps support a brighter complexion and improve the appearance of dullness, uneven tone, and visible sun damage.

Supports Collagen

Vitamin C supports processes involved in collagen production, helping maintain healthy skin structure and improve the appearance of fine lines over time.

Deeply Hydrates

Sodium Hyaluronate attracts and retains moisture, helping visibly plump and soften dehydrated skin.

Calms + Conditions

Panthenol and Allantoin help soothe, hydrate, and condition sensitive or stressed skin while supporting overall barrier comfort.

Supports Acne-Prone Skin

Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits particularly relevant to acne-prone skin while supporting a clearer, more even-looking complexion.

Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate

Antioxidant • Brighten • Support

Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP) is a stable, water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C that converts to active Vitamin C within the skin.

It provides antioxidant protection against free radicals while supporting collagen production and helping improve dullness and uneven-looking pigmentation.

SAP is generally well tolerated, making it an excellent Vitamin C option for sensitive and reactive skin. Research has also explored its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity in relation to acne-prone skin.

Sodium Hyaluronate

Hydrate • Plump • Soften

Sodium Hyaluronate is a moisture-binding form of Hyaluronic Acid that attracts and retains water within the skin.

It helps replenish dehydration while supporting a softer, smoother, visibly plumper complexion and healthy barrier function.

Vitamin B5

Hydrate • Calm • Support

Panthenol, or Provitamin B5, is a humectant and skin-conditioning ingredient that attracts moisture while helping soothe and soften the skin.

Its calming and barrier-supportive properties make it particularly useful for sensitive, dehydrated, or stressed skin.

Allantoin

Soothe • Condition • Comfort

Allantoin is a gentle skin-soothing ingredient valued for its ability to calm irritation and support skin comfort.

It complements Panthenol and Sodium Hyaluronate to create a Vitamin C serum that prioritizes hydration and tolerance alongside antioxidant activity.

Apply Complex C Serum morning and evening after thoroughly cleansing and toning.

Apply over the face, neck, and décolleté.

Follow with additional treatment products as appropriate, moisturizer, and the remaining steps of your skincare ritual.

During the day, follow with Mineral Tinted SPF 30.

Complex C Serum is an excellent choice when your skin needs antioxidant support and hydration without adding another highly active treatment step.

Its fragrance-free formula contains no exfoliating acids, making it easy to incorporate into routines that already include retinoids or exfoliating treatments.

It is also well suited for supporting skin after professional treatments such as peels or microdermabrasion once appropriate for your individual post-treatment protocol.

For additional hydration, apply while skin is still slightly damp from toner and follow with moisturizer to help seal in moisture.

How is Complex C Serum different from Gold Vitamin C x 3?

Complex C Serum is the gentler, hydration-focused option. Its streamlined formula combines stable Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate with Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin B5, and Allantoin, making it especially well suited for sensitive, dehydrated, acne-prone, or recovering skin.

Gold Vitamin C x 3 is a more advanced corrective treatment designed for intensive antioxidant support, pigmentation, photoaging, fine lines, and firmness.

Is this a good Vitamin C serum for sensitive skin?

Yes. Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a stable Vitamin C derivative generally well tolerated by sensitive skin, while Panthenol, Allantoin, and Sodium Hyaluronate provide additional soothing and hydrating support.

Can I use Complex C Serum with retinoids or exfoliating acids?

Yes. Because Complex C Serum does not contain exfoliating acids, it can be a useful hydrating antioxidant companion within routines containing other active treatments. Adjust your overall routine according to your skin’s individual tolerance.

Can I use it after a professional treatment?

Its fragrance-free, hydrating and soothing formula makes it well suited for many post-treatment routines.
