“It can do a lot.”

The best way to treat your complexion right is byusing a Vitamin C serum.

Bliss, TruSkin, Loreal Vitamin C Serums

Fortunately and also unfortunately there are a lot from which to choose.

From those 10, I selected the five I found to have some of the best qualities.

(Those other five?

TruSkin Vitamin C Facial Serum

Bad applicators, greasy skin, rough textures, odd smells, and vague directions turned us off.)

Straight from The 2024 List Beauty Awards, here are the vitamin C serum winners.

The heavy glass bottle houses the thick, oozy serum, which is applied via a dropper.

LOréal Paris Revitalift 12% Pure Vitamin C + E + Salicylic Acid Serum

There’s a clean floral scent that accompanies it, but it disappears quickly.

Directions call for two to three drops, applied evenly over the face and neck.

The formula quickly absorbs into the skin, which is both a blessing and a curse.

Maelove Glow Maker Vitamin C Serum

The serum is a little on the thinner side and is applied via a dropper.

The consistency is closer to a cream than an oil and absorbs fairly quickly.

It doesn’t leave behind any sort of scent (it’s fragrance-free), or any stickiness.

CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum

The formula is pretty impressive, too.

All together, it promises to help brighten and even skin, as well as give a little hydration.

If you’re looking to mimic that Florida-produced vibe, Bliss Bright Idea Serum is the one to try.

Bliss Bright Idea Serum

The serum is also vegan and cruelty-free.

Bliss does recommend massaging it into the skin, and the formula is easy to work with.
