Vitamin C for the Win
(for your skin)

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that you simply should not be without in your skincare arsenal. One of the primary benefits of topical vitamin C is its ability to brighten skin. It has been shown to help fade hyperpigmentation and brown spots, even out skin tone, and enhance skin radiance. Plus, its protective qualities have also been shown to help guard the skin against free radicals and environmental pollutants, contributing to a healthier skin barrier. Incorporating vitamin C into your daily skincare regimen can result in a more luminous, healthy complexion over time.

If you know anything about us over here at Pacifica, you know we love to Glow, Baby! Our Glow Baby Booster Serum is one of our best-selling products for a reason: it works, and it's affordable. And people come back for it, again and again.

One reviewer writes "I happened to see the Glow Baby Booster Serum in the store and after the first couple of uses I really can see a difference in my skin. It actually was the introductory product to this line and since, I have bought the skin cleanser, hydration gel and eye cream. Great line, my skin was SO dull before." (unsolicited 5-star review on pacificabeauty.com)

But what exactly makes our Glow Baby Booster Serum stand out from other Vitamin C serums on the market (besides the amazing value)? Our serum contains a powerful blend of antioxidants, vitamins, and moisturizing agents to give your skin a healthy, radiant glow. And we believe in creating products that are both good for your skin and the environment, which is why our serum is free from overly harsh chemicals and synthetic fragrances. Our formula includes skin-first, nourishing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and rosehip oil. And it does smell good. We use 100% natural, functional scents in many of our products that support your skincare experience. One reviewer even writes "I’m sensitive to smells but this smells great and doesn’t bother me. Soaks in nicely." (unsolicited 5-star review on pacificabeauty.com). And in addition to its amazing ingredients, our Glow Baby Booster Serum is also 100% vegan and cruelty-free.

But the best part about our Glow Baby Booster Serum? The results. Whether you're in your 20s or your 80s, this powerhouse nutrient is an absolute game-changer for achieving radiant and healthy skin.

Want to Incorporate Vitamin C into Daily Skincare Routines? Here are some recommendations:

Now that we've covered the amazing benefits of topical Vitamin C, let's get into how you can easily incorporate Vitamin C into your daily skincare regimen, no matter your age.

In your 20s:

Your 20s are all about prevention and maintaining that natural glow.

• Cleanse! Clean skin is always a must in any routine. Our Glow Baby Brightening Face Wash is a great cleanser to start with.
• Serum Up! (of course, we recommend Glow Baby): Look for a lightweight Vitamin C serum that you can apply right after cleansing your face in the morning. (Glow Baby Booster Serum for the win here!)
• Don't Forget Sunscreen: Vitamin C and sunscreen are a match made in heaven. They work together to protect your skin from sun damage and environmental stressors. Try our Glow Baby Super Lit SPF
• Consistency is Key: Use your Glow Baby Vitamin C products daily for the best results. Trust us, your future self will thank you!

In your 30s:

As you enter your 30s, focus on tackling early signs of skin aging and boosting your skin's resilience.

1. Cleanse!!! Clean skin is still always a must! Our Glow Baby Brightening Face Wash is a great cleanser to start with.
2. Exfoliate: Incorporate a gentle exfoliant into your routine to remove dead skin. Try a chemical peel at night. We recommend Glow Baby Brightening Peel Pads with 10% AHA + BHA. These are easy to use and deliver just the right amount of ingredients.
3. Layer it Up: After cleansing apply Glow Baby Booster Serum.
4. Combine with Retinoid: If you are already using retinol or a retinoid (try Wake Up Beautiful Overnight Cream), alternate it with Vitamin C in your evening routine to maximize pro-aging benefits. Use this on nights that you do not use the peel.
5. MASK! Try using a mask to add even more benefits.
6. Hydrate! Hydrate! Moisture is key for barrier protection. (Try our Future Youth Super Cream with 8-hour hydration benefits).
7. Don't Forget Sunscreen: Vitamin C and sunscreen are an ideal duo, working together to shield your skin from sun damage and environmental stressors. Our Glow Baby Super Lit SPF Lotion is a great choice.
8. Consistency is Key: Use your Vitamin C product daily for the best results. Trust us, your future self will thank you!

In your 40s and +50s:

In your 40s, focus on repairing and rejuvenating your skin to combat the effects of time.

1. Double Cleanse: Start with an oil cleanser to remove makeup and impurities, then follow with a gentle cleanser to deeply cleanse the skin.
2. Exfoliate: Integrate a gentle exfoliant into your skincare routine to eliminate dead skin cells. Consider using a chemical peel at night, such as our Glow Baby Brightening Peel Pads with 10% AHA + BHA. These pads are easy to use and provide the perfect balance of ingredients.
3. Layer it Up: After cleansing, apply Glow Baby Booster Serum.
4. Combine with Retinoid: If you’re using a retinol or retinoid in your routine (try Wake Up Beautiful Overnight Cream), alternate it with Vitamin C products in your routine to optimize age-defying benefits. Try retinoids only on nights when you don’t use exfoliant peel pads.
5. MASK! Incorporate a hydrating mask into your regimen a few times a week to unlock extra skin plumping benefits.
6. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate: Pair your Vitamin C routine with a hydrating lotion. (Try our Future Youth Super Cream with 8-hour hydration benefits).
7. Don't Forget Sunscreen: Vitamin C and sunscreen are a dream team, protecting your skin from sun damage and environmental stressors. We love our Future Youth Daily Turnaround Hydrating Moisturizer with SPF 50.
8. Consistency is Key: Use your Vitamin C product daily for the best results. Trust us, your future self will thank you!

Stay glowing,
