What skin concerns is Mario Badescu Vitamin C Serum designed to address?

Mario Badescu Vitamin C Serum is formulated to help retexturize skin, brighten uneven skin tone and reduce the visible signs of aging. Its vitamin C blend contains 0.2% BV-OSC and 0.25% Ethyl Ascorbic Acid.

How do you use this serum in a nighttime routine?

Apply 3–4 drops to clean skin every other night, avoiding the eye area, then follow with night cream. The lightweight serum is designed for nighttime use; the brand also describes a radiant, youthful-looking complexion after a night's sleep.

• If the serum gets into your eyes, rinse well with water.
• Use sunscreen, wear protective clothing and limit sun exposure while using the product and for one week afterward.
• The sun-care guidance applies because the formula contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), which may increase sun sensitivity and the possibility of sunburn.

Who is this vitamin C serum suited for?

Mario Badescu Vitamin C Serum is formulated for combination, oily and dry skin, but is not recommended for sensitive skin, acne-erupted skin or use with topical prescriptions. These use limits help clarify whether the formula fits your current skin-care routine.

• Avoid contact with the eyes; rinse well with water if contact occurs.
• If irritation develops and persists, discontinue use.
• The bottle contains 1 fl oz (29.6 mL) of serum, supplied as one bottle.

This serum is best suited to shoppers with combination, oily or dry skin who want a lightweight nighttime vitamin C treatment and can follow its every-other-night directions and sun-sensitivity precautions. Its vitamin C blend, complementary skin-care ingredients and one-bottle 1 fl oz size make it a defined fit for that routine.
