This simple step-by-step guide by Treat Veda will show you the right way to apply Vitamin C serum so your skin glows, heals, and stays youthful!
🌟 Why Vitamin C Serum Deserves a Spot in Your Routine
Before diving into the method, here’s what Vitamin C serum does:
-
Brightens dull and tired skin
-
Reduces dark spots and acne marks
-
Boosts collagen for younger-looking skin
-
Protects skin from pollution and sun damage
-
Evens out your skin tone
But to get all these benefits, you need to apply it correctly and consistently.
🧴 Step-by-Step: How to Apply Vitamin C Serum the Right Way
✅ Step 1: Cleanse Your Face
Use a gentle face wash to remove dirt, oil, and impurities. Pat your face dry with a soft towel.
Clean skin = better absorption of the serum.
Use lukewarm water — not hot — to avoid drying out your skin.
✅ Step 2: Apply a Toner (Optional but Helpful)
If you use a toner, apply it next. It helps balance your skin’s pH and preps it for better absorption of active ingredients.
✅ Step 3: Take 3–5 Drops of Vitamin C Serum
Using the dropper, apply 3–5 drops of Treat Veda Vitamin C Serum on your face.
Apply directly on the cheeks, forehead, and chin OR take a few drops on your fingertips.
✅ Step 4: Gently Pat, Don’t Rub
Use your fingertips to gently pat the serum into your skin. Focus on areas with dark spots, dullness, or uneven skin tone.
Don’t rub or drag the serum — it works best when gently pressed into the skin.
✅ Step 5: Let It Absorb Fully
Give the serum 30–60 seconds to fully absorb. You’ll feel a slight firmness or a refreshing tingle — that’s normal.
✅ Step 6: Seal with Moisturizer
Once absorbed, apply a lightweight moisturizer to lock in the serum’s benefits.
✅ Step 7: Always Use Sunscreen (Morning Routine Only)
If you’re applying it in the morning, finish with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.
Vitamin C protects your skin from free radicals, but sunscreen is a must to prevent new spots from forming.
