I got this as a gift and absolutely love it. The serum leaves my face feeling super moisturised and I really like how light it is and how quickly it absorbs. I use it as an aftershave and it works wonders to calm razor burn. 11/10 would recommend.

Is uneven skin tone something you’re struggling with?
⠀⠀
Our rec: C-Shield by day and Night Shift by night.
⠀⠀
C-Shield packs a powerful antioxidant punch of vitamins C and E, oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) which are plant based flavonol compounds from pine bark, and chlorogenic acids (CGAs) which are protective plant polyphenols from green coffee. It’s basically the hydrating, brightening antioxidant cocktail of your dreams. 💁‍♀️
⠀⠀
Night Shift restores skin barrier strength with hyaluronic acid, NMFs, açaí berry oil and more while it corrects visible hyperpigmentation with skin-loving B vitamin niacinamide and tyrosinase inhibitors alpha arbutin and licorice root. Tyrosinase is needed for melanin synthesis so restricting this enzyme can visibly lighten freckles, age spots, and improve overall evenness of skin tone. This green goddess will leave skin looking plump, happy and luminous. ✨

Are you into vitamin C derivatives or do you stan the OG LAA?
⠀⠀
If you haven’t given derivatives a whirl, we think you might love getting to know the talented form in our C-Shield antioxidant serum.
⠀⠀
✨ sodium ascorbyl phosphate ✨
⠀⠀
Sodium ascorbyl phosphate (SAP) is a naturally occurring derivative of vitamin C. It is touted as the most stable and bioavailable form. Also, it’s able to penetrate the outer layer of the skin without causing irritation.
⠀⠀
Vitamin C is an excellent free radical scavenger, can help protect cells from UV damage, and visibly brightens the complexion by inhibiting melanin synthesis. SAP is also an effective and gentle acne fighter.
⠀⠀
Why SAP over traditional vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid or LAA)?
⠀⠀
• L-ascorbic acid is prone to oxidation when exposed to water, light and air. Aqueous products containing l-ascorbic acid have a shelf life of a few months at most and begin losing potency immediately, even when precautions are taken. When vitamin C oxidases, it is no longer an effective antioxidant (and some say it may be harmful to skin cells). SAP’s unmatched stability means no risk of oxidation. It remains potent and effective over time.
⠀⠀
• L-ascorbic acid has a relatively high potential to irritate. It must be kept at an extremely low pH and many skin types react to its harshness. SAP is gentle and prefers a skin-friendly pH near 6.

Looking to lighten hyperpigmentation?
⠀⠀
Meet 𝗔𝗟𝗣𝗛𝗔 𝗔𝗥𝗕𝗨𝗧𝗜𝗡.
⠀⠀
Arbutin is a natural skin brightener from bearberry; an edible red berry that is a favourite food of bears. It can lighten the appearance of hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme in skin known as tyrosinase.
⠀⠀
Since tyrosinase is needed for melanin synthesis, arbutin can visibly lighten freckles, age spots, and improve overall evenness of skin tone. Arbutin is considered a safe and gentle naturally derived ingredient.
⠀⠀
Arbutin can take up to two months for visible effects to take place, so consistency is key. Most importantly, make sure to get the most out of your skin brightening treatments by using spf 30+ every day.
⠀⠀
You can find alpha arbutin in our brightening and balancing powerhouse treatment: Night Shift!
⠀⠀
Have you tried alpha arbutin?

🍊Looking for your HG vitamin C serum?🍊
⠀⠀
You don’t have to settle for vitamin C alone. It’s a great antioxidant, but paired with some additional powerhouses its effects can be out of this world—like in our C-Shield antioxidant serum!
⠀⠀
A potent source of proanthocyanidins (OPCs), white pine bark boosts vitamin C’s effectiveness, protects against UV damage, and visibly improves skin elasticity.
⠀⠀
Green coffee seed has smoothing, firming, and regenerating qualities thanks to its high concentration of caffeine and polyphenol chlorogenic acid (CGA). Plus, green coffee has over 10x the antioxidant power of green tea!
⠀⠀
So here’s the takeaway: vitamins C + E + OPCs + CGA + caffeine = the antioxidant cocktail of your dreams! @allmyshittymakeup loves it and we think you will too.
