description

Pure Vitamin C (or Ascorbic Acid) is a 3-in-1, clinically proven superstar that gives the skin environmental protection (antioxidant), boosts the skin's own collagen production and fades hyperpigmentation. This water-light formula contains 15% Vitamin C & extra antioxidants to give a healthy glow, even and firm the skin.

The disadvantage of pure Vitamin C is that it is super unstable, and hard to formulate with. This formula uses a low pH and extra antioxidants to help to stabilize Vitamin C, but even like this, C-Glow comes with a relatively short, 8 months shelf-life. 

The official shelf life of C-Glow is 8 months from production, unopened. To ensure maximum freshness, we manufacture small batches of C-Glow every week. On average, by the time a C-Glow reaches our customers it is about 2-4 weeks “old”.  To minimize oxidation & maximize freshness, we recommend to store it in the fridge, where it keeps fresh even beyond its official 8 months shelf life. If going to the fridge every day for your C-Glow does not sound comfortable, we recommend to use this 10 ml mini bottle. You can easily decant a few weeks worth of C-Glow into it, and store the mini bottle in the bathroom, while having the C-Glow bottle in the fridge. Click here for the C-Glow mini bottle.  

who is it for?

Everyone looking for a light-textured, pure Vitamin C + extra antioxidants formula. However, if you have sensitive, redness-prone skin, we do not recommend C-Glow due to its low pH and high pure acid content. 
Skin type
all skin types except for sensitive 
Skin problem
dark spots, aging, dull and uneven skin
Texture
fast absorbing, water-like, weightless liquid

how to use

Apply a few drops to the face after cleansing, before using other serums and/or creams. Ideal to use in the AM, but can be applied in the PM as well. As the C-Glow formula is water-like, we recommend that you put a drop directly onto your face and quickly pat it on with your other hand.

Shelf life: 8 months from production (unopened), 3 months PAO (period after opening).

freshly made & easy to read ingredients

I appreciate the simple ingredients in this product, the fact it is made in small batches (where you can see it expires), and the affordable price point.
This product is super light weight and doesn’t leave my combo skin more oily than before.
I have been using c-glow for about 9 months and (with an overall change to my skin routine) feel like I’ve noticed a more even tone to my skin!

This has been my go to C for years at this point and I'm not leaving it for any other brand. It is excellent, but i recently considered with the release of a stronger Agame that possibly a stronger C from G&G could be needed as well 😉 20% C Glow? And Maybe 10% as well for the sensitive moments ?

Best Vitamin C serum out there!

I simply love this serum! It has really helped to even out my complexion and absorbs well. I also really appreciate it being a clear solution, making it easy to see when it starts oxidizing. To combat the last (unavoidable) effect, I also really like they offer to add a small vial to your order so you can keep the original bottle in the fridge. Finally, this also is available at a very reasonable price, so I’d say it’s a must-have in your skincare routine!
