    10% Ascorbic + 3% Ferulic Acid

    8/ 10

    The evidence-leading daytime antioxidant pairing — ferulic acid roughly doubles the photoprotection of L-ascorbic acid in published research. Oxidises readily, so store cool and dark.

      Stocked up on a few bottles during the last sale — that should tell you how much I trust this.

      Works okay but broke me out slightly in the first week. Settled down after that though.

      Picked this up after seeing it mentioned in a SkinLabs review — matched what was described.
