Finally! A Vitamin C serum I can use! I am usually sensitive to any skincare product with Vitamin C. I get small, red bumps and my skin gets generally p*ssed off. With FutureDerm Vit CE Caffeic Serum, not only does my skin tolerate it – it LOVES it! I have seen my skin get brighter and smoother while using this product. It comes in a dropper form, and it does feel slightly tacky when you apply it, but it absorbs into your skin after a few minutes. I use it at night, so it doesn’t bother me at all.
The brightening, tightening serum contains an amazing 16% vitamin C, 2% vitamin E, and caffeic acid, all suspended in a silicone base. Unlike other vitamin C serums on the market, FutureDerm Vitamin CE Caffeic Serum is microencapsulated, meaning that it has sustained release of vitamin C for hours at a time (that’s probably why it doesn’t make my skin freak out).
Founder, Nicki Zevola, is a true skincare genius who puts her heart and soul into formulating these products. Unlike many companies who simply slap their names on run of the mill, mass-produced products, Nicki’s products are the real deal. The products are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Quit using that cheap-o drugstore stuff (that is probably not cruelty free anyway) and take care of your skin with skincare products that actually work!

16% is a lot! I have trouble at 5%. My face starts burning..This might be worth a try. Still looking for a good one. I gave up on the cheap drugstore stuff a long time ago. Great advice anyway!

Hi I wish I had found the comment below about burning before trying. I’ve been using the futurederm vitamin c serum for a few days. And I have severe burns on various parts of my face even my neck. It says it is completely safe so I had no idea it could react this way with skin as it is similar to a chemical burn. I looked great the first couple days tho it would a burn when I used it. But suddenly it got worse and worse to the point where I have an appt with a dermatologist. As someone who used to be so sensitive to vitamin c serums, are there any others you tried in lower bit still effacious concentrations that you liked? I’m scared to try another one for some time but I hope to one day try another type if I can tolerate it as I’ve read the amazing benefits of vitamin c serums. Thanks!
