Why is Vitamin C So Popular?
Vitamin C is one of the most researched and dermatologist-recommended ingredients for brightening and protecting the skin. It’s a powerful antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals, reduces pigmentation, and boosts collagen (Source: Dermatologic Surgery Journal, 2005).
Benefits of Vitamin C for Indian Skin
• Fades Pigmentation & Dark Spots – A 2013 study in the Indian Dermatology Online Journal confirmed that Vitamin C reduces melanin production, making it effective for hyperpigmentation and acne scars.
• Boosts Glow & Collagen Production – Research in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology (2001) found that Vitamin C promotes collagen synthesis, reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
• Shields Against Pollution & UV Damage – Vitamin C enhances the effects of sunscreen and protects against sun-induced damage (Source: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2007).
How to Use It for Maximum Results
✔ Morning Routine Essential – Apply before sunscreen for added UV protection.
✔ Start Slow – Beginners should start with 10% concentration, then move to 15-20% as the skin adapts.
✔ Pair with Sunscreen – Vitamin C + SPF 30+ provides superior protection from sun damage (Source: Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 2017).
Finding the Right Vitamin C
A good Vitamin C serum should have L-Ascorbic Acid + Ferulic Acid + Vitamin E for maximum stability. BlinkU’s dermatologist-approved Vitamin C serums are lightweight, non-sticky, and designed for Indian skin!
