Naturium | Vitamin C Complex Serum (C$33.99 for 30 ml):This brightening serum is formulated with pure vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and a stabilized form of vitamin C (sodium ascorbyl phosphate). Packaged in an airless pump bottle, it also contains extracts of pineapple, papaya, mango, and kakadu plum, which offer gentle exfoliating and antioxidant benefits. The serum has a lightweight texture and a subtle orange tint, which makes me wonder if the formulation may already be slightly oxidized. Since the percentage of vitamin C isn’t disclosed, I’m unsure about the potency, but the serum isn’t stingy or irritating, making it suitable for most skin types. Without knowing the exact concentrations of the active ingredients, it’s difficult to compare this serum directly to others on the market. What I can say is that the formulation feels gentle and the price is reasonable, especially during a sale.

Naturium | Vitamin C Super Serum Plus (C$40.99 for 30 ml):Formulated with pure vitamin C (ascorbic acid), this multi-action anti-aging serum is packed with powerhouse ingredients like retinol, aloe, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and salicylic acid to brighten, smooth, hydrate, and gently exfoliate the skin. With no discernable scent, the serum is packaged in an airless pump bottle and has a lightweight texture that glides effortlessly over the skin, leaving a fresh, dewy finish that isn’t sticky or greasy. Naturium doesn’t disclose the exact concentrations of the active ingredients, but since I haven’t experienced much sensitivity since using it, I’m guessing that the formulation is pretty gentle and suitable for most skin types. What I love most about the Vitamin C Super Serum Plus is how it simplifies my skincare routine with its all-in-one approach. However, because it is quite gentle, it doe not replace more potent actives like the Naturium Retinaldehyde Cream Serum (reviewed
here) so I would most recommend it to those without serious skin concerns looking for an all-rounder product.
