Vitamin C Fix Hybrid Gel Cream 5%

Description

This weightless, gel-like moisturiser contains a high-performance 5% vitamin C complex for a radiant, lit-from-within glow, plus ferulic acid to boost the brightening power of vitamin C. Essential hydrators work to restore hydration, while skincare powerhouse ingredient niacinamide evens skin tone and helps to diminish pore size.

Why use a complex?
Vitamin C’s pure form, ascorbic acid, is known to be unstable and highly susceptible to oxidation (resulting in it turning brown) via heat, light, air and water, which impacts its effectiveness. Using more stable derivatives of vitamin C in our formula ensures that rate of oxidation is slowed right down, meaning less discolouration and a longer shelf life, so your skin can get all the amazing benefits of vitamin C for longer.

How it works
– 5% vitamin C complex: A supercharged, innovative complex of 3 stabilised forms of vitamin C to ensure a more stable and effective brightening formula.
– Niacinamide: Helps even skin tone.
– Ferulic acid: A versatile antioxidant that boosts effectiveness of vitamin C.

When to use:
Step 3 of your skincare routine – moisturise.

How to use:
Apply to the face and neck, morning and evening. For best results, store in the fridge to keep your vitamin C at its optimum stability.

Routine:
For best results, use as part of a full Vitamin C Fix routine:

Step 1: Cleanse using the Vitamin C Fix Cleanser
Step 2: Follow with the Vitamin C Fix Brightening Pads
Step 3: Apply the Vitamin C Fix Eye Cream 10%
Step 4: Use 2-3 drops of the Vitamin C Fix Concentrate
Step 5: Finish with the Vitamin C Fix Hybrid Gel Cream

Tips:

As well as being a brightening powerhouse, vitamin C also has anti-ageing benefits. It helps with production of collagen, which supports skin structure, resulting in a plumping effect. Using vitamin C and retinol together is a powerful way to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, but we don’t recommend using them together at the same time, so stick to one in the morning and the other at night; use the Vitamin C Fix Eye Cream 10% in your AM routine and the Retinol Fix Eye Treatment 2% in the PM.

Use SPF in the morning as the last step in your routine – we recommend the Nip + Fab Illuminating SPF 30 as the final step in your routine. This SPF was specifically designed to protect and illuminate skin after using Vitamin C Fix.
