Vitamin C Myths You Should Stop Believing

Myth 1: Vitamin C Makes Your Skin Sensitive to Sunlight

Truth:
Wrong! This is one of the most common misconceptions. Vitamin C is actually a powerful antioxidant that protects your skin from sun damage caused by UV exposure. It helps neutralize free radicals and strengthens the skin’s defense barrier.
In fact, dermatologists recommend using Vitamin C serum in the morning before sunscreen for double protection.

💡 CLARIV 10% Vitamin C Serum, enriched with Ferulic Acid and Vitamin E, enhances the UV protection of your sunscreen—making it a perfect AM companion.

Myth 2: Vitamin C Is Only for Dry Skin

Truth:
Wrong! Vitamin C is beneficial for all skin types—dry, oily, combination, or sensitive.
When formulated correctly (like CLARIV’s balanced 10% strength with 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid and Hyaluronic Acid), it hydrates the skin without clogging pores or causing greasiness.

✨ Why CLARIV Works for All Skin Types:

• Lightweight water-based texture

• Non-sticky, quick absorption

• Contains Aloe Vera and Moringa Extract to soothe skin

Myth 3: All Vitamin C Serums Oxidize Quickly and Lose Power

Truth:
While pure L-Ascorbic Acid can oxidize easily, modern science offers stable derivatives like Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, used in CLARIV 10% Vitamin C Serum.
This form remains effective for a longer period and penetrates deeper into the skin without irritation.

🧴 Plus: CLARIV’s amber glass bottle and airtight pump packaging protect the formula from light and air—keeping it potent till the last drop.

Myth 4: You Can’t Use Vitamin C with Other Actives

Truth:
This is half-true and often misunderstood. Vitamin C pairs beautifully with certain actives like Ferulic Acid, Niacinamide, and Hyaluronic Acid. Ferulic Acid in particular stabilizes Vitamin C and amplifies its antioxidant power.

✅ Perfect Pairs:

• Vitamin C + Ferulic Acid: Boosts collagen and UV protection

• Vitamin C + Niacinamide: Brightens and reduces spots

• Vitamin C + Sunscreen: Shields from sun damage and pollution

💧 Use CLARIV Vitamin C Serum in the morning and layer it with CLARIV Mineral Sunscreen for maximum results.

Myth 5: Higher Percentage Means Better Results

Truth:
Not always. High concentrations (15-20%) can cause irritation or redness, especially for beginners. The ideal range is 8-12%, which is exactly what CLARIV 10% Vitamin C Serum offers.
This strength delivers visible brightness and spot reduction without damaging your skin barrier.

Myth 6: Vitamin C Shows Instant Results

Truth:
Like any powerful skincare ingredient, Vitamin C takes time to work its magic. With consistent daily use for 3–4 weeks, you’ll see a noticeable difference in radiance, even tone, and texture.

🌿 CLARIV 10% Vitamin C Serum Results:

• Brighter complexion within 2 weeks

• Faded dark spots by week 4

• Improved elasticity and hydration by week 6
