Road Test

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant essential to good health, as it’s needed for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of your body, and it also helps to block damage caused by free radicals which contribute to the ageing process. When it comes to skin care, however, vitamin C is the ultimate illuminator: it gives your complexion a good glow, and additional perks including a reduction in redness and pigmentation, as well as boosting collagen production. Over the years many skincare brands have recognised the importance of vitamin C as an added ingredient in skin care products, or as a standalone skin saver. A perennial problem with this potent antioxidant, however, has been stabilising vitamin C so that it remains effective over time, and it doesn’t oxidise in light, oxygen or heat; in other words, it doesn’t go off. Synergie Skin has developed SupremaC+ Essential Vitamin C Serum to deliver all the promises that vitamin C offers in a stabilised formula, thanks to CMF Triacid Complex. It includes ethyl ascorbic acid, one of the latest, most stable and effective forms of vitamin C, which is a potent anti-inflammatory capable of making your skin look radiant as well as reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation. Also in the formula is mandelic acid, an intelligent and multitasking AHA which works synergistically with the vitamin C converted in the epidermis. Among its many actions is regulating excess production of oil, minimising pore size and reducing T-Zone shine, while also having potent antibacterial properties to improve problem skin, including acne. Mandelic acid also helps to combat skin dryness, while AHA exfoliation improves the surface of the skin, and stimulate collagen and hyaluronic acid production for firmer, plumper skin. The third key ingredient in the formula is botanically derived ferulic acid, another powerful antioxidant which works hand-in-hand with the L-ascorbic acid to reduce acute solar damage, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and improve an uneven skin tone. To use the SupremaC+ serum all you have to do is apply one put in the morning before moisturising and sun protection and watch as your skin transforms. The formula melts into the skin quickly, providing an instant boost, and over time you will notice that your skin looks and feels more youthful, with softened age spots and wrinkles, and a new radiance.
