Vitamin C’s popularity in skin care derives from its antioxidative properties that combat UV damage and pollution, the primary culprits behind skin aging. It’s a common ingredient in serums, essences, sheet masks, and even cleansers. Users report skin brightening, reduction in hyperpigmentation, and a more youthful appearance with consistent use.

For instance, a skin care enthusiast shared before-and-after photos showing significant improvement in skin brightness and reduction of acne scars after using vitamin C serums. Experts note that vitamin C helps generate collagen and neutralizes free radicals, thus fighting oxidative stress, which is a major contributor to aging.
