Why Vitamin C Serum Belongs in Your Routine
Vitamin C is the most researched brightening ingredient in skincare — and for good reason. Here’s what it does, how to use it, and why PIVRIO’s formula stands out.
What Vitamin C Does for Your Skin
- Brightens — fades dark spots and hyperpigmentation
- Boosts collagen — reduces fine lines over time
- Protects — neutralises free radicals from UV and pollution
- Enhances SPF — works with sunscreen for better protection
Why PIVRIO’s Vitamin C Serum Is Different
Most Vitamin C serums use only one form of Vitamin C. Our Hydrating Vitamin C Serum (£22.99) combines two forms — pure L-Ascorbic Acid and a stabilised derivative — with Hyaluronic Acid for deep hydration and a refreshing peppermint finish.
The result? Maximum brightness without the sting or dryness that cheap Vitamin C serums cause.
How to Use Vitamin C Serum
- Apply to clean, damp skin in the morning
- Use 2-3 drops — a little goes a long way
- Follow with moisturiser and SPF
- Store in a cool, dark place to keep it fresh
Who Should Use It
Vitamin C suits all skin types — including sensitive. Start with every other day if your skin is new to actives, then build to daily use.
