I absolutely love the Noche Y Dia Vitamin C Serum. I’ve been using it for a couple of years now. Recently, I tried another brand for a few weeks after running out and grabbing something from Target, but I quickly returned to Noche Y Dia. My skin looks and feels smoother and healthier with it. I usually buy it on Amazon, but it’s available from other retailers as well.

I use The Ordinary’s Pure L-Ascorbic Acid Powder, mixing it with water or serum in my hand. It’s surprising that I haven’t heard others mention it on skincare forums. This pure vitamin C powder, which you mix fresh for each use, costs around $10 and lasts me a year. Sometimes I wonder if I’m not supposed to use it or if I’ve discovered a little “secret.” You can adjust the strength to your liking, and it even comes with a tiny scooper.

Meet the cult-favorite of all vitamin C serums. SkinCeuticals’ C E Ferulic with 15% L-Ascorbic Acid is a tried-and-true favorite of many and it made our cut because it included L-Ascorbic Acid — the most tangible form of vitamin C, per dermatologists.

Vanicream C serum is quite mild and reasonably priced. My sensitive skin loves it, and I have no trouble layering it with additional active ingredients.
