What is a Vitamin C serum?
At Novexpert, a Vitamin C serum is a treatment with a fluid texture, ultra-concentrated in vitamin C. It offers two main benefits: radiance/even complexion thanks to the antioxidant power of vitamin C and anti-aging benefits, as vitamin C is essential for collagen synthesis. The Vitamin C Booster Serum is suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin.
Why is vitamin C such an important active ingredient for the skin?
Because it’s not just about glow. Often forgotten, vitamin C has 3 clinically proven benefits: radiance, anti-dark spots & anti-aging. RADIANCE: it helps the skin fight oxidation and limit the accumulation of oxidized proteins on the skin surface. Result: skin that reflects light better, more luminous, more radiant. ANTI-DARK SPOTS: it limits the production of the pigment responsible for dark spots: melanin. ANTI-AGING: it triggers collagen production, the fibers that allow the skin to maintain elasticity and firmness. An essential vitamin that the skin cannot produce on its own and therefore must be supplied in large amounts.
Why did we reformulate our Vitamin C Booster Serum?
Because science advances. For us, reformulation never follows a trend. It answers one question: can we do better for the skin? Today, more than 60% of the population does not meet their vitamin C needs… Yet vitamin C is 100 to 1000 times more concentrated in the skin than other vitamins (A, E, etc.). It is therefore crucial to provide a large amount of vitamin C to the skin. The Novexpert Doctors, in collaboration with the laboratory, conducted hundreds of tests before finding the stable and balanced formulation to include 30% stabilized vitamin C. Moreover, the chosen form of vitamin C is delivered over time to skin cells for more than 8 hours. Like a “drip” of vitamin C that delivers its benefits to cells without saturating them.
What does 30% stabilized vitamin C mean? And why choose this form of vitamin C?
The stabilized vitamin C from Novexpert Laboratories is a unique form of vitamin C: more stable, highly tolerable, and more anti-aging than classic vitamin C, ascorbic acid. Within the complex chosen by the Novexpert Doctors, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is linked to another molecule, a “bodyguard” that makes it more stable and allows easy penetration. The two molecules are “attached” together, grafted, and once in the skin, they separate to exert their respective benefits. This process allows vitamin C to be: MORE STABLE = Novexpert’s vitamin C complex is 18 times more stable than conventional vitamin C. MORE UNIVERSAL = Novexpert’s stabilized vitamin C is stable at a pH close to physiological pH, allowing treatments to be used by all skin types, even the most sensitive. MORE DURABLE = vitamin C is gradually separated from its “bodyguard” molecule in the skin. Skin cells therefore benefit from a continuous supply of vitamin C for at least 8 hours. MORE EFFECTIVE = stabilized vitamin C boosts collagen production twice as much as ascorbic acid. A doubly more effective anti-aging action.
Can our vitamin C serum be used in the sun?
Yes, and this is unique. Novexpert Laboratories’ Vitamin C Booster Serum is the first ultra-concentrated vitamin C serum certified non-photosensitive, non-phototoxic, and non-photoallergenic. This non-photosensitive certification is not just a detail. It is essential. UV rays can destroy up to 80% of vitamin C, while vitamin C protects cells from damage caused by free radicals generated by sun exposure. The Vitamin C Booster Serum can therefore be used 24/7, 365 days a year, even in summer when sunlight is strong. Our advice: get into the habit of applying it before your sunscreen for enhanced cellular protection.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. We formulated this serum to be compatible with all skin types, even sensitive skin. Its high tolerance is an integral part of our formulation standard. This is partly due to its pH, which is close to physiological pH. For us, performance must be accessible to everyone, even sensitive skin.
Is it suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women?
Yes, all Novexpert products are 100% compatible with pregnant and breastfeeding women, including the Vitamin C Booster Serum. This is not just advice but a real certification.
Does vitamin C help reduce pigmentation spots?
Yes. Vitamin C is an excellent radiance active ingredient but also a spot-correcting active. It acts on melanin formation, the pigment responsible for spots when produced in excess. Novexpert’s stabilized vitamin C reduces by 47% to 72% the activity of molecules involved in the creation of this pigment. A real asset for an even complexion and reduced spots. The Vitamin C Booster Serum is even certified as a “therapeutic treatment” for dark spots in Korea, thanks to the actives it contains.
Is vitamin C also an anti-aging active ingredient?
Absolutely. Without vitamin C, no collagen. Vitamin C is essential for the synthesis of precious collagens; it is the key that unlocks their production. Collagens are the fibers that provide firmness and elasticity to the skin. Without them, the skin gradually loses firmness and density, and wrinkles deepen. But not all vitamin C is equal. Novexpert’s stabilized vitamin C demonstrates superior bio-affinity with fibroblasts (collagen factories): it stimulates natural collagen synthesis in the skin twice as effectively.
What differentiates our Vitamin C Booster Serum from a classic vitamin C serum?
Three main points: its concentration, stability, and tolerance. CONCENTRATION: 30% stabilized vitamin C in a single bottle, nearly 10g. One of the highest concentrations on the market, to provide the skin with the significant amount of vitamin C it needs daily. STABILITY: 40 times more stable compared to classic vitamin C. TOLERANCE: the first ultra-concentrated vitamin C serum certified non-photosensitizing, usable in all seasons including summer, compatible with all skin types, even sensitive. And of course, like all Novexpert products, its radiance and anti-wrinkle efficacy has been proven in clinical studies under medical supervision.
How long does it take to see the effects?
Radiance is one of the first benefits noticed. According to clinical studies conducted under medical supervision, 75% of volunteers found their complexion more radiant immediately after application and 85% found their skin more luminous after 7 days. The Vitamin C Booster Serum provides a real “healthy glow” effect (less gray, rosier complexion) for 80% of users. Regarding anti-aging, especially the reduction of wrinkles and fine lines, it is a biological mechanism that takes longer. A wrinkle can take 5 years to form, so it’s understandable that reducing it in a few days is difficult. However, in less than a month, a reduction of up to 42% in wrinkle volume is observed.
Can our vitamin C serum be used every day?
Yes. Our Vitamin C Booster Serum was designed for daily use. It integrates easily into a morning and/or evening routine, depending on skin needs. It is compatible with all skin types, even sensitive. For dry skin, we recommend applying a cream afterward for even more comfort. It is formulated for everyone: men, women, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and all ages.
How to properly apply our Vitamin C Booster Serum?
We recommend applying it on clean skin, morning and/or evening. It can be used alone if your skin is combination to oily, or before your cream if your skin is normal to dry. It integrates perfectly under sun protection. We especially recommend it in polluted environments, for outdoor work/sports, chronic stress, etc.
