The long-awaited video on Vitamin C / Ascorbic Acid is finally here. This video was literally years in the making - since the first time I ever used a Vitamin C Serum, 6+ yrs ago. It's been a lot of trial, testing, glow and sometimes stinging for me to bring you my current favourite picks! There should be something here for everyone no matter your skin-type or budget so I hope you enjoy! This is the longest video to date, so get a cup of tea, wine, whatever does it for you!
