FAQ

  • What skin types is this serum suitable for?

    This formula is safe for all skin types—dry, oily, sensitive, and everything in between. It's non-comedogenic, which means it shouldn't clog pores. And it's even accepted by the National Eczema Association, which means it's been vetted for sensitive, eczema-prone skin.

  • Can I combine vitamin C with other active ingredients (retinol, AHAs, niacinamide, etc.)?

    You can—but you might not need to. Each pump delivers vitamin C, peptides, humectants, and antioxidants—doing the work of several serums in one. If you still want to use retinol or acids, alternate: vitamin C in the morning, those at night.

  • Is this vitamin C serum OK for daily use long-term, or should I cycle it?

    You can absolutely use it daily. It's made to be gentle enough for consistent, long-term use—even if you're sensitive.

  • Is this safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?

    Vitamin C is generally considered safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but if you have specific concerns, it's always a good idea to check with your doctor.

Reviews

My new favorite Vitamin C

"I have ultra-sensitive skin and hormonal acne, so I’m very picky about what I use on my face. Skinfix Vitamin C gives me the glow I was looking for without irritation, and my dermatologist approved it too! 🤍 A true skincare favorite."

Sofia O. (5/5)

I bought this hoping it

"I bought this hoping it would be a great Canadian made alternative to the Sunday Riley CEO serum. It more than exceeded my expectations and now I’m hooked on the rest of their products."

Carmen s. (5/5)

Switched from different brand of

"Switched from different brand of vitamin c cream to this one and after consistent use I can absolutely tell a big difference! This is a great product for my skin. I use every morning."

"C'est le premier sérum à la vitamine C qui ne me cause pas d'eczéma. C'est une belle découverte. Je vais définitivement essayer d'autre produit de cette entreprise."

Marie-Pierre L. (5/5)

Love the product, HATE the packaging

"Love the product; HATE the packaging. I was excited to find a Canadian-made Vitamin C serum and this one is really good, especially for sensitive skin. No irritation at all and the texture is lovely. My only problem is with the packaging. The pump dispenses WAY too much product (I use it on my face and neck) but one pump dispenses at least twice what you'd actually need to use. Partially dispensing the pump to get what I actually would need is next to impossible as its a "short" pump (if that makes sense) so its essentially an all or none phenomenon. Please change the packaging."

Jennifer (4/5)

Goodbye dark spots, hello glow!

"This Vitamin C serum is a total game-changer. I've struggled with stubborn dark spots for a while, and this formula has visibly faded them faster than anything else I've tried. Plus, the amount of radiance it brings to my complexion is insane. My skin looks so bright, even-toned, and naturally glowing every single day!"

Age Spot

"I am a 53 year old women and have a quarter size sun spot on my check. I was thinking about seeing a dermatologist to help with lighting the spot but in the meantime I ordered the Vitamin C Serum to try it. Within days I noticed a visible difference on the sun spot and was very impressed. I use the serum every morning with sunscreen."

Q&A

Is this product good for 85 yo dry skin
Hi Irene, Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant that helps brighten dullness, fade visible dark spots, and firm the look of skin over time. It also helps defend against free radicals that can make spots look darker and lines look more pronounced—so you're protecting while you treat. We hope this helps!
Can I pair this with Azelaic acid in the morning? I currently use tretinoin 0.05% at night so I can't pair anything with tret at night due to irritation. If I can pair azelaic acid (15% in my case), should I use this serum first and then the azlaic acid? Or should I use the acid first, then this vitamin c serum?
Hi Prithvi, Each pump delivers vitamin C, peptides, humectants, and antioxidants—doing the work of several serums in one. You could alternate days - one day Vit C then next day Azelaic acid? But please confirm with your prescribing doctor to ensure these ingredients are right for you. We do not recommend layering these actives at the same time. Thanks!
Can I apply this serum to the under eye area? In currently avoiding that area and just going up to and around the orbital bone
Hi Prithvi, Thank you for reaching out and for your question. This serum isn’t made for the delicate eye area, so keep it on the orbital bone only (not the lids or too close to the lash line). If you're looking for eye-specific benefits, we recommend trying our Triple Lipid Eye Treatment. Thanks!
Can I use the Brighten + Firm 15% Vitamin C Serum with the Mad About Skincare copper peptide serum? Thanks.
Hi Melissa, You can—but you might not need to. Each pump delivers vitamin C, peptides, humectants, and antioxidants—doing the work of several serums in one. If you still want to use retinol or acids, alternate: vitamin C in the morning, those at night. We hope this helps!
Would the vit c need to be refrigerated
Hi Gale, We don't recommend putting Brighten + Firm Vit C Serum in the fridge. Storing it in a cool, dark place is enough to help prolong the formula’s potency—especially if you live in a warm or humid climate.
Can I use vitamin c serum with Exo Ecotin baume
Hi Ruthann, We recommend alternating the time of day you use them: vitamin C in the morning to protect and brighten, and Exo Baume at night to support skin renewal. Both formulas are packed full of high-impact ingredients, so you probably don't need to layer them to see results. But if you want to, that's safe, too!
