Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Tocopherol (also known as Vitamin E) is a common antioxidant used to help protect the skin from free-radicals and strengthen the skin barrier. It's also fat soluble - this means our skin is great at absorbing it.
Vitamin E also helps keep your natural skin lipids healthy. Your lipid skin barrier naturally consists of lipids, ceramides, and fatty acids. Vitamin E offers extra protection for your skin’s lipid barrier, keeping your skin healthy and nourished.
Another benefit is a bit of UV protection. Vitamin E helps reduce the damage caused by UVB rays. (It should not replace your sunscreen). Combining it with Vitamin C can decrease sunburned cells and hyperpigmentation after UV exposure.
You might have noticed Vitamin E + C often paired together. This is because it is great at stabilizing Vitamin C. Using the two together helps increase the effectiveness of both ingredients.
There are often claims that Vitamin E can reduce/prevent scarring, but these claims haven't been confirmed by scientific research.

Doesn't make me break out
All natural
Feeds skin, improves texture brightness and hydration
Dr. Brenner Vitamin C Serum with Ferulic Acid, Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid 12 ingredients
Feels quite oily on my skin. Doesn’t absorb well and gives the dreaded “shine” to my face. Nothing like skinceuticals - which it claims to be a dupe of.
My holy grail vitamin c serum. Excellent formulation, no weird texture on the face like some others I’ve tried. Sits nicely under products and makeup. And affordable!
