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.
