Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an antioxidant that is often used in skincare to help brighten the appearance of dull skin and improve the look of uneven tone. It also helps support skin against the visible effects of environmental stressors. 

Vitamin C skincare products can be used in the morning or at night, depending on the formula. Many people prefer morning use before moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF to help protect the skin, while others include it in an evening routine as a reparative skincare step. 

Many vitamin C skin products are designed for daily use, but the ideal frequency depends on the formula and your skin. Follow the product directions and, if you're new to vitamin C, introduce it gradually to see how your skin responds. 

Yes, many vitamin C skincare products can be used every day when the formula is suitable for your skin. Follow the specific product directions and adjust your routine if you notice discomfort. 

Where your No7 vitamin C product fits into your routine depends on the formula. Serums are typically applied after cleansing and before applying moisturizer, while vitamin C creams are used at the moisturizing step. Follow the directions for your chosen No7 vitamin C product and finish your morning routine with broad-spectrum SPF. 

Vitamin C can be suitable for sensitive skin, but tolerance varies by formula and concentration. Introduce one new product at a time, patch test when appropriate and use it less frequently at first if your skin is easily reactive. 

Yes. Vitamin C skincare does not replace sunscreen. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF every morning as the final step of your skincare routine, even when you use antioxidant products. 

Keep vitamin C skincare tightly closed and store it as directed on the packaging, away from excessive heat and direct sunlight. This helps protect the formula from unnecessary exposure to light and air.
