Vitamin C & Hyaluronic Acid: The Dynamic Duo! How to Use Both in Your Regimen

Want to unlock a youthful and radiant complexion? If so, then vitamin C and hyaluronic acid deserve a prime spot in your skincare routine! Below, we’re going to dive into everything you need to know about using these high performance, research-backed ingredients. 

Vitamin C Breakdown

First, let’s talk about the benefits of vitamin C. This powerful skincare ingredient is one of the best scientifically-proven solutions for achieving and maintaining an even skin tone and younger-looking complexion. 

Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that fights damaging oxidative stress from UV rays and other environmental aggressors. Oxidative stress can contribute to fine lines, wrinkles, sagging, and dark spots. This means blocking it is key for preventing these premature signs of aging.

Vitamin C has also been scientifically proven to fade hyperpigmentation and sun damage to promote a radiant and more even complexion. Additionally, it stimulates the production of collagen – a protein naturally found in the body that’s responsible for keeping the skin youthful. Since our collagen production decreases as we age, vitamin C fills that gap. Over time, this boost in production results in softened fine lines and wrinkles and a firmer complexion. 

What to Know About Hyaluronic Acid

While vitamin C is known for its anti-aging and brightening properties, hyaluronic acid is famous for being a hydrating powerhouse. This molecule draws moisture to the skin and locks it in. It’s one of the most effective humectants out there, with an impressive ability to hold nearly 1000 times its weight in water!

This water magnet benefits the complexion by improving the skin’s ability to retain water, which counteracts dehydration. When applied topically, it immediately quenches and softens the skin for a more hydrated and comfortable complexion. Since hyaluronic acid plumps the skin, it is also able to smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while also improving elasticity for a more youthful complexion. 

What’s also noteworthy about hyaluronic acid is that it's super gentle on the skin, and is great for all skin types. With regular use, the skin is left feeling and looking soft, youthful, and dewy. 

Benefits of Using Vitamin C with Hyaluronic Acid

Now we know what hyaluronic acid and vitamin C offer on their own, but what are the benefits of pairing them in your routine? When used together, these skincare ingredients are an incredibly powerful dynamic duo, because each perfectly complements the effects of the other. 

Vitamin C and hyaluronic acid work together to target signs of aging, dullness, and other concerns from multiple angles in order to achieve the best possible results immediately and over time. Hyaluronic acid uses its moisturizing power to plump and soften lines while addressing the loss of moisture that we experience as we age. At the same time, the antioxidant properties of vitamin C help slow down the formation of future wrinkles and dark spots, while simultaneously brightening the complexion and boosting collagen production to target current signs of aging. 

When used together, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid promote a supple, even, and radiant complexion. They also both reduceand prevent visible signs of aging so that you can maintain a youthful appearance long-term. It’s also worth noting that there are no negative side effects of using these ingredients together, so they are easy to add to your skincare routine. 

Beyond that, hyaluronic acid also supports the skin as it is exposed to vitamin C. While highly effective, vitamin C may cause mild irritation and dryness for some people, particularly when first introducing the ingredient into their routine. Gentle hyaluronic acid – which doesn’t have any negative side effects – ensures the skin stays calm, hydrated, and comfortable so that it has the best response to vitamin C. 

How to Apply Them in Your Skincare Routine

As noted above, you can safely layer vitamin C and hyaluronic acid. With this in mind, we created our expertly formulatedHyaluronic Pure Boost andVitamin C Boost serums so that they can be layered together. This means you can enjoy the full effects of both hyaluronic acid and vitamin C in your routine!

In order to best harness the power of these serums, it’s important to use them in the most effective way possible. With all skincare solutions, a good rule of thumb is to apply your products from thinnest to thickest. Keeping this in mind, we suggest first applying Vitamin C Boost to clean, dry skin, and then giving it a few minutes to completely absorb. Follow up with Hyaluronic Pure Boost, and then apply your moisturizer to seal everything in. 

Both of these serums can be used both morning and night for maximum anti-aging, brightening, and hydration-boosting benefits. During the day, be sure to finish off your routine with sunscreen. This adds an extra layer of protection to further prevent skin damage and future signs of aging.
