15% Vitamin C Complex Brightening Serum
This next-gen Vitamin C delivers multi-product impact in a targeted treatment that combats environmental stressors while hydrating, soothing, and brightening the skin. 1 fl. oz
- High-stability Vitamin C
- Advanced antioxidant complex
- Hydrating, non-sticky formula
- No offensive odor
Most vitamin C serums lean on a single, unstable derivative that oxidizes fast, turns brown, smells terrible, and can sting the skin. For years, I've watched my patients abandon vitamin C because of these issues, even though it's one of the most proven ingredients for brightening and collagen support. That's exactly why we developed this advanced formula that pairs high-stability vitamin C with next-generation antioxidants and soothing hydrators for powerful results that actually feel good on skin.

Reviews
- CLChris L.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoThe Glow Is Real: Remedy Vitamin C Review
I had the opportunity to try the Remedy Vitamin C product as part of a pre-launch consumer study, and I absolutely love it. The smooth, gel-like, lightweight texture glides on effortlessly and absorbs quickly, leaving no greasy or heavy residue. Over the four weeks, my skin became noticeably more hydrated, brighter, and healthier, with a natural, subtle dewy glow. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to enhance their radiance and support healthy aging—get ready for endless compliments!
- VFValerie F. G.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoGreat product
I have been using Remedy for daily defense for about a month. This vitamin c product is full of great antioxidants such as ferulic acid and superoxide dismutase. It also has in it bifidia ferment lysateand pantheons which helps support the barrier function of the skin. It also has in it hyaluronic acid which hydrates the skin. The product goes on silky smooth and is absorbed into the skin right away. It is very hydrating and nourishing. There is no fragrance to this product. There is also no irritation. I have been an esthetician going on 20 years. There are some vitamin c products that can be very irritating and oxidize very quickly. This vitamin c is a game changer.
- JMJudy M.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoThe best Vitamin C serum I’ve Tried
I was one of the lucky few to be a part of the prelaunch study. I’m already using Remedy Dark Spot which I love with its skin loving ingredients in the evenings. I have used this 15% Vitamin C Complex for about a month. And I have noticed a brighter smoother complexion.
What makes this different from other Vitamin C serums I have tried in the past? It has no scent (at least Undiscernible to me). It has a smooth silky texture that is hydrating leaving the skin with a glow. It’s not sticky or tacky and absorbs into the skin beautifully. It doesn’t pill when layered with my moisturizer or sunscreen (non-negotiable) and concealer or cushion makeup. The formula is so unlike other Vitamin C serums I’ve used. It stays stable and doesn’t oxidize. I’m sure it has a great ingredient list as with all Remedy products. Dr. Shah and the Remedy team has made this product very affordable compared to other brands.
I also use a red light therapy face mask in the evenings followed by Remedy’s Dark Spot & moisturizer. I have not experienced any irritation with this Vitamin C serum. I will continue to use for consistent results.
- CSConnie S.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoGet it!
I had never used a vitamin C serum before. I tried this product as part of a pre-launch consumer study. I noticed my skin changing within a few days. It was brighter and tighter. After a week, I noticed my age spots getting smaller and lighter. My pores are also less apparent. I’m on week 4 and loving it! This vitamin C serum will always be in my skin care line up. Thanks Remedy!
- BBeckVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoGood, effective serum
I tried this product in a prelaunch trial. I HAVE noticed my skin feels more hydrated and firmer. I have not noticed my sun spots fading (it has only been 3 weeks). I will continue to use this serum. It has a lovely texture, NO smell, and sinks right into my skin.
The RIGHT Remedy, for every CONCERN
