Is it safe to use vitamin C and retinol in the same routine?
Yes, it is safe to use vitamin C and retinol in the same routine—as long as you apply them correctly and use the right formulation.
Here’s how to do it without irritating sensitive skin:
· ☀️ Use vitamin C in the morning: it’s an antioxidant that protects skin from daily stress and pollution.
· 🌙 Use retinol at night: this is when skin renews itself and retinol can work its magic.
· 🧴 Always follow with hydration (like hyaluronic acid) and barrier-repairing creams.
· ☂️ Wear SPF every day, especially when using retinol.
Dr. Dermaluci Lab’s Vitamin C Bio Serum uses sodium ascorbyl phosphate, a stable and gentle form of vitamin C — ideal for sensitive skin. Pair it with our Retinol Puro Serum at night, and you’ll support radiance and renewal, without overloading your skin.
