  • Gentler vitamin C form for sensitive skin
  • Stable formula that resists oxidizing
  • Lotion texture instead of serum

What they flagged

    Nothing. None of the experts who reviewed it raised a problem.

    What the gurus are saying

    A gentler form of vitamin C makes this serum work well for people who find regular ascorbic acid too irritating, and dermatologists praise its clinical backing for helping with hyperpigmentation and uneven tone. The stable formula stays white rather than yellowing like typical vitamin C products, and it's formulated with sensitive skin in mind, so those with reactive or acne-prone skin may want to start here before trying stronger vitamin C actives.

    "The revision C+ correcting complex has been a longtime favorite for me especially for those with sensitive skin"
    Yay
    "If you cannot tolerate vitamin C in its ascorbic acid form, because these are just going to be too irritating for certain sensitive or acne prone skin types, may I recommend the Revision Skincare C+ Correcting Complex. I am obsessed with this. They have really good clinical data on this specific formula. It is lovely. This formula uses tetrahexyl ascorbate, also known as THD ascorbate. It's just a different form of vitamin C, less irritating, little more stable too. So you'll see that this is white, whereas most vitamin C serums are going to be slightly yellowish, and that's from the vitamin C starting to oxidize a little bit. But this is so beautiful. I would put this on in the morning before I do my sunscreen."

    "One of my favorite THD ascorbate products is the Revision Skincare C Correcting Complex. Apart from the SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic, this is probably my most used topical vitamin C because I really like that it comes in a lotion form, and there are just certain days or certain times of the year where that's more of what I'm in the mood for. I also don't find that it destabilizes or oxidizes the way my SkinCeuticals does, so it's one that I can kind of have open and keep open for longer periods of time, and it's the vitamin C that I tend to travel with."
    Yay
    "Another one is from Revision C+ Correcting Complex that contains 30% lipid vitamin C and that one is great. It has a unique formulation that not only offers great antioxidant support but also has been shown to help with hyperpigmentation. So another great one that's been clinically studied and better for those that have maybe sensitive skin or looking for an antioxidant serum that also offers skin brightening and helping with hyperpigmentation."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Vitamin C

    Topical vitamin C is an antioxidant with reasonable evidence for dullness and uneven tone. It breaks down in light and air, so how a product is formulated and packaged matters as much as the percentage on the front.

    Humectants and emollients

    Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

    Vitamin E

    Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
