DIY Vitamin C Serum

DIY Vitamin C Serum

You’ll Need:

1/2 tsp natural vitamin C powder
1 tbsp distilled water OR 1 tsp distilled water to dissolve and 2 tbsp vegetable glycerine
A dark coloured container to store your serum (Vitamin C oxidises easily)

Directions:

Dissolve the vitamin C powder in the water. If you are only using water, then you’re done. Store your mixture in a dark container and it’ll keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
If you’re using the glycerine, dissolve your vitamin C in the 1 tsp of distilled water, then stir in the glycerine. The serum with the glycerine will last a month or longer in the fridge.

What’s the Difference Between Using Just Water or Using Glycerine?

There are two main differences:
  1. The glycerine will make your potion last a long longer
  2. The glycerine will deliver a softer, smoother finish

Benefits of the Vitamin C Serum

  • Great for wrinkles and/or fine lines
  • Softens skin
  • Evens skin tone
  • Gets rid of dark spots
  • Brightens and tightens skin

Now that you’re ready to make your own serum, what are you waiting for?
