How To Use DIY Vitamin C Serum:
- Wash your face before going to bed.
- Apply some toner and then use a small amount of vitamin C serum.
- Follow up with a moisturizer.
- Always remember to remove it in the morning, otherwise due to sun exposure it can cause sensitivity.
- Repeat every alternate day, and then slowly start using it every night up to 3 months.
Things To Remember:
Here are some precautions to be taken before you start to make your own Vitamin C serum.
- Try to use an organic or natural Vitamin C powder. Always measure the quantity to be used since it is acidic and can cause reactions.
- Using the Vitamin E oil is optional but recommended, since, it also has a lot of antioxidants which are beneficial for the skin.
- If you have a sensitive skin, you can dilute the serum with water.
- If you have a lot of wrinkles, you can slowly start adding more vitamin C, but it’s always better to test for sensitivity and reactions first in your inner arm.
