Skin Care Review: Skinceuticals Serum 20 (Vitamin C)

by Stephanie Elwood, Midland Park, NJ, USA

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Powerful, topical antioxidant. Firms, tones and slows down premature aging of the skin.

Drawbacks
Mild stinging, dryness, flaking (initally). Expensive, but worth it.

Details
This topical Vitamin C serum is an excellent antioxidant that helps to fight premature aging to the skin (free radical damage). As a licensed Esthetician, I have used this product for years and my skin looks firmer, more even-toned, less red, and healthier overall. The serum has a very watery consistency but lasts about 3 months. Applied underneath a sunblock that contains titanium dioxide or zinc oxide helps to increase effectivness of the sunblock. Over time, fine lines can soften giving the skin a firmer apperance. Ideal product for oily skin. Vitamin C tends to slighly dry the skin, so no toner or blemish gel is needed. Excellent for ruddy or red complexions since Vitamin C is anti-inflammatory. No fragrance or dye. I highly recommend.

Conclusions
Worthwhile investment to slow down effects of aging on the skin.

Price (paid by reviewer)
$120.00 (may differ)
