Product information
Comprised of 25% Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid + 10% Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, this potent serum is supercharged with a next-generation antioxidant complex of Superoxide Dismutase + Glutathione, ensuring and strengthening the potency of the Vitamin C while providing additional benefits to the skin.
This daily formula enhances radiance and forms a protective shield against environmental aggressors while paving the way for brighter, firmer skin. Over time, skin is plumper and glows with a brilliant smoothness.
Its waterless base ensures that this formula stays clear and potent. Due to its unique waterless nature, it may feel 'oily' for a few seconds to some. However, it is oil-free, and the oily feeling will dissipate quickly as the serum absorbs into the skin.
Directions of use:
After cleansing and misting or toning, apply 3 pumps all over your face, eye area, and neck. Follow up with your favourite moisturiser or face oil. It can be used daily in the AM and/or PM and sits comfortably under makeup or without. Apply to very damp skin for optimal absorption.
Shake well before every use. Always use SPF as the final step in your routine.

KEY ALLIES
25% Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid. A newer, more stable form of Vitamin C. Fades imperfections, boosts collagen production, and provides excellent photoprotection underneath sunscreen.
10% Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate. An oil-soluble form of Vitamin C that can better penetrate the skin’s epidermis, getting to the deepest skin layers. It combats free radicals, protecting the skin from harmful environmental aggressors like UV rays and pollution.
Superoxide Dismutase. A potent antioxidant that supports the skin’s natural production of superoxide dismutase to prevent the formation of free radicals. Evens out complexion, and combats signs of premature ageing and dullness.
Glutathione. A potent antioxidant that helps target photoageing, battles oxidative stress, and reduces the concerns associated with exposure to free radicals. Leaves the skin looking clearer, firmer and more even.
Ethoxydiglycol, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Isodecyl Neopentanoate, Glutathione (L), Superoxide Dismutase, Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Phenoxyethanol.
Formulated without Silicones, Sulfates, Denatured Alcohol, Synthetic Dyes & Fragrances, and Essential Oils.

FAQ
How should I apply this product?
After cleansing and misting or toning, apply 2 to 4 pumps all over your face, eye area, and neck. Follow up with your favorite moisturizer or face oil.
This product is best applied to very damp skin. Shake well before every use. Always use SPF as the final step in your routine.
Is it vegan?
Yes, this product is vegan and does not contain any animal derivate.
Why does this product have a grainy consistency?
This serum contains a high percentage of Vitamin C in a powder form and is suspended in a waterless base. When the product is not stored properly — for example, in a cold area — the formula can crystalize. Shake well before every use to have the formula return to its normal state.

The 35% Vitamin C+ Perfecting Serum does not exfoliate like acid. You can use this product in your AM skincare routine and an exfoliating acid in your PM routine.
Why does this serum have an oily texture?
This serum has a unique waterless base and, while it's oil-free, it may feel slightly oily. This feeling disappears about 30 seconds after application.
We care for your skin
All our products are dermatologically tested and formulated to minimise the risk of irritation. However, some ingredients and their combinations can be too potent for sensitive/sensitised skin and cause a reaction.
In some instances, you might experience a brief tingling sensation after application — often a sign that the active ingredients in the formula are working. If you experience redness or your skin feels sensitive hours after applying a product, we recommend you stop using it and check with your dermatologist.

Vitamin C is a must-have ingredient for my own skincare routine. I love that the "35% Vitamin C+ Perfecting Serum" contains stable Vitamin C derivatives in a water-free base, ensuring that its antioxidant power reaches my skin. The formula absorbs seamlessly without feeling heavy or greasy.
Vitamin C is one of the ingredients that I recommend for just about anyone looking to start a preventive skincare routine. It is a potent antioxidant that can protect the skin from free-radical damage and environmental stressors, and it can also improve the appearance of discoloration and hyperpigmentation. I love that the Allies of Skin "35% Vitamin C+ Perfecting serum" has stable, effective vitamin C derivatives that make it a great choice for someone who wants to start a preventive skincare routine.

I find you can layer this lightweight formula with multiple serums and products without it feeling sticky, which can sometimes occur with other Vitamin C serums. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, so it’s most effective if you use it in the morning. I also like that it contains Glutathione which has the ability to reduce free radical damage. It works for all skin types, especially for those who have concerns of hyperpigmentation, melasma, sunspots, or for those who have years of damage due to a lot of sun exposure. When you have a lot of supercharged ingredients (a high concentration of multiple actives), based on the vehicle, a waterless formulation ensures you’re getting the highest delivery of all the actives.
