Directions

How To Use

Application: Apply 4-5 drops to cleansed, dry skin using fingertips. Gently pat the serum onto face, neck, and chest, allowing full absorption before applying additional products.
Frequency: Once daily in the morning for optimal environmental protection throughout the day.
Timing: Use after cleansing and toning, before moisturiser and sunscreen application.
Layering: Allow C E Ferulic to absorb fully (approximately 1-2 minutes) before applying hydrating serums, moisturiser, and broad-spectrum sunscreen. When used with SkinCeuticals sunscreen, provides comprehensive protection against visible ageing from environmental aggressors.
Expert Tips: For maximum efficacy, ensure skin is completely dry before application. The serum works synergistically with sunscreen – always complete your morning routine with broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place and ensure the dropper cap is tightly sealed after each use to maintain formula stability.

FAQ

FAQ

Q: Why does my C E Ferulic serum have a distinctive smell?
A: The characteristic metallic or coppery scent is due to the high concentration of pure L-ascorbic acid and is actually an indicator of the formula's freshness and potency. Our experts call this "the smell of efficacy." The scent dissipates quickly after application and does not linger on the skin.

Q: Is it normal for the serum to change colour over time?
A: Yes, it is completely normal for L-ascorbic acid to darken from clear to a light gold or amber colour after opening due to exposure to air and light. However, clinical testing confirms that oxidation is minimal in SkinCeuticals formulations, and the serum remains stable and effective for up to 6 months after opening. The colour change does not indicate reduced efficacy.

Q: How long before I see visible results from C E Ferulic?
A: Many users notice immediate improvements in skin radiance and brightness upon first use. For significant anti-ageing benefits including reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and improved firmness, clinical studies demonstrate visible results after 4-12 weeks of consistent daily application. Maximum benefits, including 32% improvement in wrinkles, are typically achieved after 16 weeks of continued use.

Q: Can I use C E Ferulic with retinol or other active ingredients?
A: Yes, C E Ferulic complements other active ingredients effectively. Apply C E Ferulic in the morning for antioxidant protection, and use retinol products in your evening routine. If using other vitamin C products or strong exfoliating acids, speak to our experts for personalised layering guidance to avoid potential irritation.

Q: Why is C E Ferulic considered the gold standard in vitamin C serums?
A: C E Ferulic is formulated under the Duke Antioxidant Patent, which established the precise parameters for effective vitamin C delivery – including pH, concentration, and synergistic antioxidant combinations. It's the #1 dermatologist-recommended vitamin C serum, backed by 40 years of research, published in 25+ peer-reviewed journals, and clinically proven to deliver 8x environmental protection. No other vitamin C serum has this level of scientific validation and proven efficacy.

Product Overview - SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic 30ml

SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic represents the gold standard in vitamin C skincare, delivering clinically proven environmental protection with its revolutionary triple-antioxidant formula. This award-winning serum combines 15% Pure L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), 1% Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), and 0.5% Ferulic Acid in a patented formulation that provides 8x more antioxidant protection than untreated skin. Published in over 25 peer-reviewed scientific journals and backed by more than 50 clinical studies worldwide, C E Ferulic neutralises free radicals induced by UVA/UVB rays, infrared radiation, and ozone pollution to visibly improve signs of ageing whilst brightening your complexion.

Formulated under the prestigious Duke Antioxidant Patent, this professional-grade serum is the #1 dermatologist-recommended vitamin C serum among medical aesthetic skincare brands. Clinical studies demonstrate up to 48% reduction in oxidative damage from environmental aggressors, making it ideal for normal, dry, and sensitive skin types seeking advanced protection against atmospheric ageing. Once absorbed, C E Ferulic remains effective for a minimum of 72 hours, delivering continuous protection throughout your day.

Key Benefits at a Glance:

Immediate Benefits:
Long-Term Benefits:

With consistent daily use, C E Ferulic delivers clinically proven improvements in multiple signs of ageing. The synergistic combination of pure vitamin C, vitamin E, and ferulic acid works to stimulate collagen production, resulting in a 31% improvement in skin firmness and up to 32% reduction in the appearance of wrinkles after 16 weeks. The formula's unique stability ensures that these powerful antioxidants remain potent and effective, even after opening.

Long-term application addresses photodamage and atmospheric ageing by improving skin texture, reducing the visibility of fine lines, and enhancing overall skin health. The serum's ability to reduce up to 41% of combined oxidative damage from UV rays, ozone pollution, and diesel exhaust means your skin maintains its youthful resilience and radiance for years to come, whilst preventing the accelerated ageing caused by environmental stressors.

How will it feel on my Skin?

C E Ferulic features a lightweight, fast-absorbing texture with a watery consistency that glides effortlessly across the skin. The serum absorbs within seconds of application, leaving no sticky residue or heavy feeling, making it ideal for layering under moisturiser and sunscreen. The formula has a distinctive, slightly metallic scent due to its potent concentration of pure L-ascorbic acid – a characteristic our experts describe as "the smell of efficacy." This natural scent dissipates quickly after application and indicates the serum's fresh, active formulation.

Who is it Suitable For?

Our experts recommend this serum as the cornerstone of any prevention-focused skincare routine, offering unparalleled environmental protection whilst delivering visible improvements in skin health, radiance, and youthful appearance.
