Because retinol can initially cause dryness or irritation, many dermatologists recommend starting with a lower concentration and using it only a few nights per week before gradually increasing frequency.
2. Vitamin C: A Powerful Antioxidant
Vitamin C is well known for its antioxidant properties, which help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and ultraviolet (UV) exposure.
It also helps brighten the complexion by reducing excess melanin production, making it an excellent ingredient for fading sun spots and improving overall skin radiance.
Benefits include:
Brighter skin
Reduced appearance of dark spots
Protection against environmental damage
Support for collagen production
Vitamin C serums are often applied in the morning underneath sunscreen for maximum benefit.
