Sensitive skin? Read THIS before using Vitamin C

Most people think Vitamin C is just… Vitamin C 👀

But the truth? It’s a whole category and using the wrong one could be why your skin isn’t glowing the way you want ✨

💛 L-Ascorbic Acid (pure Vitamin C) = powerful, fast results… but can be irritating

🌿 Vitamin C derivatives = gentler, more stable, better for sensitive skin

If your skin gets red, stings, or feels “off”… it’s not you—you might just need a different form ✔️

✨ The real glow-up comes from using what your skin can handle consistently

💌 Brand: The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%

💵 Price:$14.80

💌 Brand: The Ordinary 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder

💵 Price:$6.60

Save this for your next skincare purchase 💾
