| DIY Vitamin C serum vs. Vivite serum
I have read so many people swearing by the Vitamin C serum. I have been using Vivite skin serum before my moisturizer each morning, and it's about time for me to buy a new bottle. Is the reason everyone swears by the Vitamin C serum that it's cheaper, or is it simply more effective?

What does glycolic acid do? Exfoliates and triggers collagen production. This C serum does the same but in a different way since it's L-ascorbic acid. Alpha-hydroxy acids and skin rejuvenation Vitamin C + E + ferulic acid: enhancing stability and effectiveness of topical ascorbic acid I like the DIY C serum better since it's less irritating and offers some UV protection as well. It made my skin look and feel better the first time i used it. Oh! and it's cheaper and purer since you make it fresh.
