Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Not only is vitamin C great for your overall health and immune system, it also has plenty of benefits on your skin.
Vitamin C is best used for brightening skin. It improves dark spots, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. This is because it blocks the process of skin darkening when exposed to UV.
Remember: Vitamin C should not replace sunscreen!
Your skin uses vitamin C to build collagen. Collagen is one key component in having a strong skin barrier and plump skin. Vitamin C also plays a role in regulating collagen, thus making it effective in improving wrinkles and fine lines.
Ascorbic acid shows potent antioxidant activity. As an antioxidant, it helps fight free-radicals. Free-radicals are molecules that may damage your skin cells. These antioxidants also protect skin against UV damage.
The best formulations include Vitamin E and/or ferulic acid. These two ingredients help stabilize and provide a boost in the benefits of ascorbic acid. This is because ascorbic acid becomes unstable when exposed to UV and air. In fact, you can tell your ascorbic acid has oxidized when it turns an orange-yellow color.
Ascorbic acid is generally compatible with other ingredients. However, using ascorbic acid with other active ingredients might cause irritation. Two ingredients: copper ions and benzoyl peroxide, will inactivate ascorbic acid completely.

Garnier Vitamin C Glow Booster Night Serum 17 ingredients
Treats dark spots, requires weeks of use to start working. Might irritate skin after threading. Might itch or burn. Sticky, my skin doesn’t absorb it well.
I love it

I've reintroduced this powerful vitamin C serum back into my routine because my hyperpigmentation has re-emerged. After only a few weeks of use, the dark spots and uneven skin tone have already faded and are much less visible.
Gradually increasing the vitamin C concentration in my routine, I've tried various other serums before - this one is the most effective so far. I'm not sure if I should Show more
No irritation, no weird smell
I switched from Cosrx's Vitamin C 23 serum to this. I prefer this to Cosrx. It has no smell, no irritation and gentle to my skin. If you are a fan of Cosrx Vitamin C serum (but loathe the smell), you may want to try this too.
