Frequently asked questions
Q: How does vitamin C in a day moisturiser help skin?
A: Vitamin C brightens the complexion, fades the look of dark spots, and helps protect skin from daily environmental damage. Using it in a moisturiser gives you a convenient way to deliver these benefits every morning as part of your routine.
Q: Do I still need to apply SPF if my moisturiser contains vitamin C?
A: Yes, always. Vitamin C does not replace sunscreen — in fact, it works best when paired with SPF as together they provide stronger protection against sun-related skin damage and discolouration.
