Waking up to tired-looking skin and stubborn dark spots is frustrating. Most people try a bunch of products, but the real issue often comes down to using vitamin C serums that aren’t stable or just don’t absorb well. Vitamin C, if not formulated right, breaks down quickly and stops working before it even hits your skin.
Vitamin C is notoriously fussy—it oxidizes fast, especially when exposed to air and light. That means many serums lose their potency after a few weeks. If your serum changes color or smells off, it’s probably not doing much for you anymore.
Opaque bottles and air-tight pumps keep vitamin C fresh. Clear bottles are a big red flag—your serum will degrade faster.
We combine stabilized vitamin C with botanical extracts to brighten, hydrate, and protect your skin. Our serums are vegan, cruelty-free, and skip harsh chemicals like parabens and silicones. See for yourself at Lotus Botanicals.
1. How do I know if a vitamin C serum is still effective?
If your serum has changed color or smells metallic, it’s probably oxidized. You want a clear or slightly cloudy serum with no strong odor.
2. Can I use vitamin C serum every day?
Yes, most people can use it daily. If your skin is sensitive, start with every other day and see how your skin reacts.
3. Is Lotus Botanicals vitamin C serum suitable for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. Our formula uses stabilized vitamin C and soothing botanicals, so it’s gentle enough for most skin types, including sensitive skin.
4. Should I apply vitamin C serum at night or in the morning?
Morning is best because vitamin C helps protect your skin from environmental stressors. Always follow with sunscreen for extra protection.
5. What percentage of vitamin C works best for facial serums?
Most people see great results with 10–20%. Higher concentrations can be harsh, especially if you’re just starting out.
6. Will vitamin C serum help with acne scars?
Vitamin C can fade post-acne marks by boosting collagen and reducing pigmentation. Consistent use is key for visible improvement.
7. Are Lotus Botanicals serums vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes, all our products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free. We use only plant-based ingredients and ethical practices.
8. Can I use vitamin C serum with retinol?
You can, but it’s best to use vitamin C in the morning and retinol at night to avoid irritation and get the most benefit from each.
9. Do I need sunscreen after using vitamin C serum?
Definitely. Vitamin C boosts the effectiveness of sunscreen, and both together help protect your skin from UV damage.
10. Why does my vitamin C serum sting a little?
A mild tingling is normal, especially when you first start using vitamin C. If the stinging is intense or you notice redness, switch to a gentler formula.
