I have not tried making my own vitamin c serum and probably won’t. I don’t want to play chemist. I’ll leave that up to the formulators and actual chemist lol. That powder probably won’t last you that long. it’s a date on it for a reason after opening, those powders are good for no more than a year, usually 6 months. Vitamin c didn’t really do anything for my skin so I stopped using it. I use other things like tranexamic acid. And I love that snail mucin. definitely a favorite

Interesting, I had no idea that you could easily make vitamin C serum at home. 😯 But I most likely won't attempt to make it myself because I was never very good at chemistry, so I wouldn't be confident to use it on my face. 😅
It's good to hear it works great for you. 😊

I’ve always wanted to try the timeless, did that one oxidize super quickly on you too 😅

not SUPER quickly. but still fast. that has L-Ascorbic Acid in it. so it can oxidize faster than other derivatives of vitamin c.
I only recommend people using L-Ascorbic acid in a vitamin c serum, not a derivative of vitamin c. only because there’s so much research that proves L Ascorbic Acid helps with collagen production and brightening the skin. other derivatives of vitamin c haven’t been studied long enough to know if they’re effective. or at least that’s what a lot of dermatologists say that I follow on YouTube and Instagram.
