The All Bright C Serum is a game-changer and the daytime sister to our Overnight Resurfacing Peel. With the peel, you probably know you can get healthier, less dry, more balanced, and really good looking skin overnight.
Now, by adding the All Bright C Serum to your AM routine, you can maximize your benefits. I noticed a difference with only a couple of uses and now that it has been 9 months of using the product, I realize I don’t want to go without it. And if I don’t use it one morning, I can definitely see and feel the difference in my skin.
What is it?
All Bright C Serum is for all skin types and is formulated with 2 types of very stable Vitamin C. The first type is an antioxidant which reduces the appearance of dark spots and boosts skin brightening. The second type of Vitamin C helps moisturize, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while providing the antioxidants you need to protect your skin from environmental stressors.
Vitamin C
A lot of products have Vitamin C in them. But not all Vitamin C is created equally. Our product has the most stable forms of Vitamin C on the market. A lot of other skin care brands that advertise Vitamin C use L- Ascorbic Acid. In the lab, this type of Vitamin C performs well, but outside the lab it loses efficacy as soon as it touches water. In addition, after about 4 weeks the potency of the Vitamin C diminishes. While some brands may say they carry a “higher percentage” of Vitamin C, the most important factor is the type of Vitamin C and how stable it is.
One of the types of Vitamin C that we use is called tetrahexaldexel ascorbate. It is really effective at lower levels of concentration and so it is less irritating to the skin and good for all skin types.
Featured Ingredients
All Bright C Serum has two featured ingredients other than the stable Vitamin C. The first ingredient you will notice is turmeric which gives the serum its vibrant hue. Turmeric is an antioxidant superstar that helps even skin tone and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When you first use this product you will notice it has a fluorescent yellow glow to it. Don’t worry, this ingredient doesn’t stain your skin or clothes. Be aware All Bright C Serum carries a hint of tumeric smell to it but once applied it disappears. I did notice that the first week or so my skin looked a little bit orange tinted until my skin got used to this. I don’t have that same look now that I’ve been using this product for months.
The second featured ingredient is called Camu Camu which is a fruit extract. This powerful antioxidant helps reduce the appearance of dark spots while brightening, to visually improve signs of skin fatigue.
To wrap up the amazing benefits of this new product I want to make sure you know exactly what you are getting! Here is what you can expect with All Bright C Serum:
- Serves as an antioxidant helping to prevent wrinkles and is boosted by the Camu Camu and Tumeric.
- Fades discoloration because it normalizes the skin’s production of melanin.
- Boosts collagen production due to the tetrahexaldexel ascorbate ability to absorb deeper into the skin.
- Helps fight daily stressors and damage.
- Works hand-in-hand with the Overnight Resurfacing Peel, which is used in the evening.
How do you use the All Bright C Serum?
You might be wondering how the All Bright C Serum is used. It is part of the Treat Step. You can of course play around with this step and see how it works best for your skin type. It could take the place of the serum you already use, or you can add into your routine in addition to what you are already doing. You use it after your current serum in the morning. Make sure that if you have sensitive skin start with patch testing on a small part of your face or behind your ear to see how your skin reacts.
My daytime routine:
- Wash face
- Apply Toner (Prep step)
- Apply all Bright C Serum (I use 1 pump but you may need 2 pumps. Just make sure it dries fully. I personally think that 2 pumps is too much. I often don’t use a whole pump)
- Apply AM Moisturizer
- Finish with makeup application
What are other people saying about All Bright C Serum?
The testimonies are pouring in! Including mine. (Which, by the way, after two days I found I didn’t even need to apply my foundation during the day)! Others are saying:
- My skin looks more radiant.
- My skin looks brighter.
- It helps even out my skin tone.
- My skin is more glowing.
- My skin is more hydrated.
For Oily or Acne Prone Skin:
Please be aware that if you have acne prone skin, All Bright C Serum can increase the risk of breakouts. The pH in this product is a little higher than other Vitamin C containing products and can change the skin’s bacteria. In addition, this product uses glycerin with a base of palm and coconut oil which can potentially add a little bit of dirt and grime to get into your pores. Most people won’t notice this, but people with oily skin can.
To counteract this, especially if you do have another serum, make sure you use All Bright C Serum as the 2nd serum. Likewise, if you add 2 drops of our Beautycounter facial oil to the serum, the glycerin will not attract dirt if that is a problem. I also suggest that you start slow and work your way up to using it daily, giving your skin a chance to adjust.
As always with any Beutycounter product, All Bright C Serum is a high performing product that adheres to our safe skin care policies.
I hope you love it!
