Skincare trends come and go fast, but vitamin C endures for good reason – many of us love the visible glow it brings, both instantly and long-term. Lovers of vitamin C (myself among them) most commonly incorporate L-ascorbic acid or another form of vitamin C via a face serum applied before moisturising.
But a new crop of face creams is aiming to maximise the glow by ladling yet more vitamin C on top. And at this time of year, when skin is often dull and dry, too much of a good thing may be wonderful.
