CeraVe Vitamin C Serum 30ml
CeraVe Vitamin C Serum 30ml is a dermatologist-developed brightening serum powered by 10% L-ascorbic acid — the purest and most clinically studied form of vitamin C. Combined with hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, and 3 essential ceramides, it delivers antioxidant protection, visibly reduces fine lines and uneven skin tone, and simultaneously supports the skin barrier. Note: L-ascorbic acid is inherently unstable and may yellow slightly over time — this is normal and does not affect efficacy, but store away from direct sunlight and heat. Fragrance-free and non-comedogenic.

Description
CeraVe Vitamin C Serum 30ml — 10% L-Ascorbic Acid Brightening Serum with Ceramides
CeraVe Vitamin C Serum 30ml is a dermatologist-developed brightening and antioxidant serum formulated with 10% pure L-ascorbic acid — the gold-standard form of vitamin C — alongside hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, and 3 essential ceramides. It visibly reduces fine lines, uneven skin tone, and dullness while protecting against free radical damage and reinforcing the skin barrier.
A key note for users: L-ascorbic acid is inherently unstable and may gradually yellow with exposure to air, light, or heat. This is a normal characteristic and does not reduce efficacy at the yellow stage — however, if the serum turns dark brown or orange, oxidation has progressed and the product should be replaced. Store in a cool, dark location with the cap tightly closed. Browse the complete vitamin C range at Derma.pk.
Key Benefits
- 10% L-ascorbic acid brightens skin and targets uneven tone, dark spots, and dullness
- Antioxidant protection against free radicals from UV and environmental pollution
- Visibly reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- 3 essential ceramides restore and reinforce the skin's natural protective barrier
- Hyaluronic acid hydrates and plumps without heaviness
- Vitamin B5 (panthenol) soothes and supports skin health
- MVE Technology for sustained-release moisturisation
- Fragrance-free, non-comedogenic — suitable for sensitive skin
How to Use
- Cleanse thoroughly. Apply 3–4 drops to face and neck in the morning.
- Gently press and pat into skin; allow 1–2 minutes to absorb.
- Follow with moisturiser and a broad-spectrum SPF 30+. Vitamin C paired with SPF delivers maximum antioxidant and UV defence.
- Can also be used in the evening routine if preferred.
- Store away from direct light and heat. Slight yellowing is normal; discard if serum turns brown or orange.
Skin Type Suitability
Suitable for all skin types including dry skin and sensitive skin. The ceramide + HA base provides barrier support and hydration that counteracts the drying potential of L-ascorbic acid alone. Pairs well with a complete anti-aging skincare routine.
Key Ingredients

How To Use
1. Cleanse face thoroughly. Vitamin C serums perform best on clean, dry skin.
2. Apply 3–4 drops to face and neck in the morning (AM recommended — vitamin C + SPF is a powerful antioxidant pairing).
3. Gently press and pat into skin; avoid rubbing.
4. Allow to absorb for 1–2 minutes before the next step.
5. Follow with a moisturiser and broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher. Pairing with CeraVe AM Facial Moisturiser SPF 30 maximises antioxidant + UV protection.
6. Evening use: can be used at night but AM application maximises daytime antioxidant protection.
7. Storage: keep away from heat and direct light. A slightly yellowed serum is still effective — discard if it turns brown or orange, as oxidation at that stage reduces efficacy.
FAQs
Why does the CeraVe Vitamin C Serum 30ml sometimes turn yellow?
L-ascorbic acid is inherently unstable and oxidises when exposed to air, light, or heat. A slight yellowing is normal and does not mean the product is ineffective. However, if the serum turns dark brown or orange, significant oxidation has occurred and it should be replaced. Store in a cool, dark place and close the cap tightly after use.
Is 10% L-ascorbic acid the right concentration for beginners?
10% is considered a moderately effective yet well-tolerated concentration for most skin types. Those with very sensitive skin may want to start with every-other-day use and build up. Higher concentrations (15–20%) may be more irritating but offer faster results.
Can I use CeraVe Vitamin C Serum with niacinamide?
Yes — the concern about vitamin C and niacinamide forming nicotinic acid is largely overstated in modern formulations at standard use temperatures. Both can be used in the same routine. If concerned, apply vitamin C in the morning and niacinamide in the evening.
Where does this serum fit in my routine order?
Apply after cleansing and before your moisturiser. Always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ in the morning. Vitamin C maximises antioxidant defence against daytime UV and environmental stressors.
Is CeraVe Vitamin C Serum suitable for dry or sensitive skin?
Yes. The inclusion of ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin B5 makes this serum hydrating and barrier-supportive — properties that counteract the potential drying effect of L-ascorbic acid alone. It is fragrance-free and non-comedogenic.
