- Q
Curious what percent of Vitamin C is in this serum?
- Asked by Mel
- Official Answer By Dermalogica US - Brand EngageHello, thank you for contacting Dermalogica. Biolumin-C products contain two highly stable and bioavailable forms of vitamin c. The percentage is proprietary to Dermalogica. Percentage is less important than how much vitamin c is delivered to the skin. All three Biolumin-C products contain advanced technology that delivers more Vitamin c into the skin – which means that more vitamin c is available to the cells to protect and defend the skin.

- Q
Hello Dermalogica! I have been using your products for years now and I love them. There's on thing that concerns me. It's about the biolumin vit C face serum. I needed to buy a new one and it seems different. The smell, color is lighter than yellow, and consistency. The serum doesn't feel sticky and dense as it did before. It feels like the ingredients were changed or not enough of vit C ingredient or and other ingredient was added. It feels as if the serum was diluted with something. Not a fan of the new formula. I'm searching for my right dark yellow color. I have returned 1, bought another one and still the color is off. I'll try exchange it one more time, but if it doesn't work out I'll need to look for another vitamin C serum from a different brand. Can you please tell me what changed ? Is the formula different ? I will really appreciate the answer! Thank you so much!

Wanted to love this!
I really wanted to love this, and it felt great on my skin! No new acne and my skin felt soft and smooth. Unfortunately, however, I believe I'm allergic to one of the main ingredients: Cocamidopropyl Betaine. I did a lot (I mean a LOT) of research on all the products I was using and what ingredients...
