The Science Behind
C E Ferulic

Protect Skin from Environmental Aggressors

Environmental aggressors such as UV rays, pollution, and metals generate free radicals that accelerate visible signs of ageing. These unstable molecules cause oxidative stress, which can lead to fine lines or wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and loss of firmness.
Daily use of antioxidants like vitamin C can help neutralise free radicals and protect skin from environmental damage. As the central ingredient in C E Ferulic, vitamin C prevents oxidative stress and supports a brighter, more resilient complexion.
C E Ferulic's vitamin C serum concentration sits within the optimal 10-20% pure vitamin C range, which is considered most effective for antioxidant protection and reducing visible signs of photoageing.

Our Formulation Superiority

Developed through the research of our founder Dr. Pinnell at Duke University in the USA, the Duke Antioxidant patent outlines the parameters required for effective delivery of vitamin C to the skin:
1. Use l-ascorbic acid (pure vitamin C)
2. At a 10-20% concentration
3. An acidic pH within the range 2.0-3.5
These parameters are considered essential for ensuring stability, absorption, and antioxidant efficacy. The Duke Antioxidant Patent has been published in eight peer-reviewed scientific journals and remains a benchmark for vitamin C formulation in dermatological skincare.
The patent also demonstrates how a water-soluble antioxidant like vitamin C can be successfully combined with a lipid-based antioxidant like vitamin E, enhancing overall performance and skin benefits.

Gold is the Standard

It’s normal for C E Ferulic to appear gold or amber in colour, either upon opening or over time. This natural variation is due to the presence of pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), which can oxidise slightly when exposed to air.
Importantly, this colour change does not indicate reduced efficacy. Extensive testing has shown that the topical vitamin C formula remains potent and effective for up to 36 months when stored correctly.

C E Ferulic + Non-Ablative Laser Treatments

Non-ablative laser treatments stimulate collagen production and skin cell renewal by triggering a controlled wound-response in the skin. These procedures help improve discolouration, texture, and overall skin tone.
Topical application of C E Ferulic post-treatment can help enhance results. Its antioxidant-rich formula supports skin recovery, visibly reduces redness, and helps minimise downtime. The serum’s compatibility with post-laser care makes it a valuable addition to both pre-treatment preparation and post-treatment maintenance plans.

Physician's Insight

"Ferulic acid is probably my favourite antioxidant agent and is naturally occurring in the cell walls of plants. It works synergistically with vitamins C and E, and neutralises free radicals, reducing cell damage from the ravages of the environment (such as UV radiation, smoking and pollution). Most of my patients will have ferulic acid recommended as part of their pre-treatment preparation regimes, or their maintenance plans post-treatment.”

Answers to your frequently asked
C E Ferulic questions.

What does SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic vitamin C brightening serum do for the face?

SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic is a vitamin C brightening serum that helps protect facial skin from environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution, which contribute to visible signs of ageing and skin discolouration. Its clinically backed blend is ideal for targeting uneven facial skin tone, pigmentation and dark spots, helping to improve the appearance of facial discolouration caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes or post-blemish marks.

Is it best to use vitamin C in the morning or at night?

SkinCeuticals recommends using C E Ferulic serum once daily in your morning routine. Vitamin C antioxidant serums are best suited for morning use before your skin is exposed to environmental aggressors throughout the day. If you’re new to vitamin C serums, we recommend you start by using this serum every other day to establish skin tolerance before building up to daily use.

Do you use C E ferulic before or after moisturiser?

C E Ferulic Serum should be applied before moisturiser, and after using a facial cleanser and a toner (optional). The common rule of thumb when applying skincare is to go from the thinnest consistency product to the thickest. Apply C E Ferulic vitamin C serum in the morning to clean skin, followed by a moisturiser and a high SPF, broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Can I layer C E Ferulic vitamin C serum with other serums?

Can I use C E Ferulic Vitamin C Brightening Serum with other skincare ingredients?

To get the most from your vitamin C brightening serum, avoid layering it with exfoliating acids or retinol at the same time. Ingredients like glycolic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid, and retinol may increase sensitivity when used alongside C E Ferulic, especially for those targeting dark spots or uneven skin tone.
Instead, apply C E Ferulic in the morning, and reserve exfoliants or retinol for your evening routine. This approach supports skin comfort while maximising the serum’s brightening and anti-ageing benefits. Read our article on how to use vitamin C and retinol together for more tips on how to use vitamin C with other powerful SkinCeutical skincare.
