Doctrine - Radiant C Serum

Vitamin C and Hemisqualane Serum

Revitalise your skin and combat visible signs of ageing with our Radiant C Serum. Formulated using a oil soluble version of Vitamin C called Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate that is easily absorbed into the skin and resistant to oxidation. Combined with Hemisqualane, a new biotech ingredient derived from sugarcane that locks in moisture to the skin, this lightweight formula will illuminate your complexion, smooth away fine lines, and leave your skin looking firm and radiant. Suitable for all skin types.

The scent of this serum is a subtle sweet citrus mix, delicate enough to make it an enjoyable sensory experience that won't linger on the skin.

According to the brand: “The version of Vitamin C we use, Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate has a much lower usage rate than ascorbic acid. We use 2% as advised by our suppliers. We have also carried out in vitro testing against a competitor product to ensure the efficacy of our formulation.”

“Radiant C Serum underwent testing at Shannon Applied Biotechnology Centre to assess its effects on the skin, with a focus on how it acts as an antioxidant and how it boosts collagen production.
The results show that when compared to skin cells without any treatment, Radiant C Serum protects the outer skin cells against oxidation which can cause damage in the cells and speed up the ageing process.

Additionally, the data shows that Radiant C Serum encouraged the production of collagen in the inner skin cells. At a concentration of 1 mg/mL, there was a 25% increase in collagen. Collagen is important for keeping the skin firm and elastic. When it breaks down, it can lead to fine lines and wrinkles as a part of the ageing process.”
