Hyaluronic VIT C

Most vitamin C serums use pure ascorbic acid, which sounds impressive but has a critical flaw: pure vitamin C degrades rapidly and penetrates skin poorly, meaning the majority of what's in the bottle never reaches the dermis where it works. Mixlab Hyaluronic Vit C uses ET-Vitamin C (3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid), which is engineered specifically to overcome these limitations. ET-Vitamin C is created by modifying ascorbic acid to dramatically increase molecular stability — the vitamin C doesn't degrade — and enhance transdermal penetration far beyond pure ascorbic acid. This is why professionals choose ET-Vitamin C over plain vitamin C. At 5% clinical concentration, ET-Vitamin C delivers genuine antioxidant power: powerful free radical scavenging that reverses ROS production, inhibition of melanogenesis to reduce dark spots and age spots, collagen-boosting to reduce wrinkles, and anti-inflammatory effects that fight photo-ageing. Most vitamin C serums deliver only surface lightening; this one delivers systemic antioxidant benefits at the cellular level.

Yes — ET-Vitamin C is significantly less irritating than pure ascorbic acid, which is notoriously acidic and irritating. The stability means the vitamin C doesn't cause irritation from degradation byproducts. The fruit acid blend is gentler than conventional exfoliants. The hyaluronic acid provides protective hydration. For sensitive skin, use morning and evening consistently — the gentle penetration means you get antioxidant benefits without irritation. The comprehensive hydration support means sensitive skin becomes more resilient with regular use.

This is your antioxidant and anti-ageing serum step, used morning and evening as foundational infrastructure. Morning routine: cleanse → apply Hyaluronic Vit C to clean skin → allow to absorb fully (2–3 minutes) → apply other serums or treatments if using → apply moisturiser → SPF 50+ (essential with vitamin C). Evening routine: cleanse → apply Hyaluronic Vit C → allow to absorb → apply other treatments or night cream if desired. Hyaluronic Vit C is the foundation antioxidant step for all skin types, especially mature and photo-aged skin. For Mixlab system users, this is the antioxidant and anti-ageing base layer to which personalised serums are added — apply this first (allow to absorb), then layer other Mixlab serums on top according to individual needs.

Clean skin prior to application. Apply a few drops to the skin morning and evening. Gently pat or press (do not drag) the serum into the skin, allowing it to absorb fully (2–3 minutes). A moisturiser can be applied over the top. Always apply SPF 50+ during the daytime — vitamin C increases photosensitivity and antioxidant benefits are maximised with UV protection. For Mixlab blending: apply Hyaluronic Vit C as the antioxidant and anti-ageing layer, then layer other Mixlab serums on top according to personalised protocol, allowing each to absorb before applying the next. Once opened, use within 6 months.

Immediate results on first use — skin feels brighter, more hydrated, and more radiant from the vitamin C and hyaluronic acid system. Cumulative visible results compound over 2–4 weeks: skin tone brightens noticeably, dark spots and age spots appear lighter, fine lines appear softer and plumped, skin texture improves, and overall radiance and youthfulness return. Collagen-boosting effects deepen over 4–6 weeks as fibroblasts respond to vitamin C signalling. Clients report visible brightening and spot fading within 1–2 weeks, with significant wrinkle softening, collagen improvement, and photo-ageing reversal by 4–6 weeks of consistent use. Antioxidant protection is immediate and cumulative.

Yes — Mixlab Hyaluronic Vit C is a topical serum with no systemic actives, making it safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Vitamin C is not systemically absorbed topically. For pregnant clients experiencing loss of radiance, pigmentation changes, or wrinkle formation from hormonal shifts, this antioxidant serum is ideal. The gentle, restorative approach is excellent during pregnancy when oxidative stress increases.

Both. As a standalone serum, it delivers comprehensive antioxidant and anti-ageing benefits and is perfect for clients seeking core antioxidant protection without additional layering. As part of a routine with other serums: apply Hyaluronic Vit C first (as the antioxidant foundation), allow it to absorb (2–3 minutes), then layer other serums on top. The vitamin C and hyaluronic acid infrastructure allows other actives to work optimally without irritation. For Mixlab system users specifically, Hyaluronic Vit C is designed to be mixed with other Mixlab serums to create fully customised formulations — you can blend this with brightening, collagen-boosting, or pigmentation serums to create personalised, targeted formulations tailored to individual photo-ageing and skin concerns, all with antioxidant foundation. Avoid mixing with other vitamin C or unstable antioxidant products.

At twice-daily application (morning and evening, a few drops), a 70ml bottle lasts approximately 6–8 weeks. The lightweight serum formulation means a small amount covers the entire face and neck effectively — you need less product than heavier antioxidant creams. The generous 70ml size provides excellent value and longevity for daily antioxidant use. Once opened, use within 6 months.

The value case is compelling and evidence-based. Most vitamin C serums cost similar amounts but deliver only temporary cosmetic brightening because they use unstable pure ascorbic acid that degrades and penetrates poorly. Mixlab Hyaluronic Vit C is premium-priced because ET-Vitamin C is engineered for stability and penetration — the vitamin C actually reaches the dermis where it works. Over 6–8 weeks of consistent daily use with SPF 50+, you're seeing measurable brightening, dark spot fading, wrinkle softening, and genuine photo-ageing reversal through collagen rebuilding and free radical scavenging — not temporary cosmetic effects. The clinical efficacy of stable, bioavailable ET-Vitamin C justifies the investment. For clients frustrated by sun damage, pigmentation, wrinkles, and loss of radiance, this is the antioxidant serum that delivers documented benefits. For Mixlab system users, this becomes the antioxidant and anti-ageing foundation to which personalised actives are added. The superior stability of ET-Vitamin C over pure ascorbic acid makes this genuinely worth the price.
