  • Abstract:
  • Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a powerful antioxidant widely used in dermatology for its multiple skin benefits. As a water-soluble vitamin, it plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis, skin brightening, and protection against oxidative stress. Topical application of Vitamin C serum has been extensively studied for its ability to neutralize free radicals, enhance photo protection, and reduce signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. Additionally, Vitamin C is known to accelerate wound healing, improve hydration, and combat inflammation associated with acne and rosacea. This review explores the mechanisms of action, clinical applications, and efficacy of Vitamin C serum in skincare. It also discusses formulation challenges, stability concerns, and the synergistic effects of combining Vitamin C with other active ingredients like Vitamin E and ferulic acid. Overall, Vitamin C serum remains a cornerstone in modern skincare, offering scientifically-backed benefits for maintaining healthy and youthful skin.
