How To Use The Vitamin C + HA Eye SerumUpdated a day ago
How do I apply the Vitamin C + HA Serum?
1. Apply 1-2 drops directly to the eye area daily before moisturising (avoiding direct contact with the eyes)
2. Use your ring finger to distribute the serum around the eye contour
3. Wait for the serum to fully absorb before applying moisturiser
Application Tip: Use your ring finger to gently pat the serum into the under-eye without dragging the product and delicate eye area.
Can I use Vitamin C + HA Serum with other skincare products?
At UKLASH, we believe in high-performance, low-maintenance, and transformative products. Our Vitamin C Serum is designed to be a confident addition to your routine, working seamlessly with the products you already love.
For best results, apply your Vitamin C + HA Serum in the morning on clean, dry skin.
Here’s a simple order to follow:
Cleanser – Start with a gentle cleanse to remove makeup and impurities.
Toner or essence (optional) – If you use one, apply it to the face, avoiding the eye area.
Vitamin C Eye Serum – Using your ring finger, gently tap a small amount around the orbital bone (just below and to the side of the eye).
Face serums/Moisturiser – Apply your usual skincare to the rest of your face, avoiding overlap with the eye area.
SPF (AM only) – Finish with sunscreen to protect your skin and boost the protective effects of Vitamin C.
While our Vitamin C Serum is designed to work with most skincare routines, we recommend being mindful when layering certain active ingredients,
Retinol or Retinoids at the same time use Vitamin C in the morning, and retinol at night.
AHAs/BHAs (like glycolic or salicylic acid) can increase sensitivity when used with Vitamin C.
Benzoyl Peroxide may reduce the effectiveness of Vitamin C.
If you'd like to include these ingredients in your routine, alternate them between morning and evening or use them on different days.
Pro Tip: Always patch test new products and introduce actives slowly if your skin is new to them. When in doubt, less is more.
How long does it take to see results from a Vitamin C Serum?
We recommend using the Vitamin C + HA Eye Serum once a day for at least 4 to 6 weeks to begin seeing visible results, and here’s why:
The skin around your eyes is up to 5 times thinner than the rest of your face, which means it’s more sensitive, but also faster to show signs of both damage and improvement. Visible change takes time.
On average, skin cells renew every 28-40 days, depending on age, lifestyle, and the condition of your skin. Active ingredients like Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) need time to penetrate the skin’s surface and work at a cellular level, stimulating collagen production, reducing pigmentation and dullness and preventing oxidative damage, which causes dark circles.
Vitamin C works best when used consistently. With daily use, its antioxidant properties accumulate in the skin, gradually brightening the appearance of dark circles, softening the appearance of fine lines, and visibly improving elasticity.
As these ingredients work on a deeper level, results don’t appear instantly. Instead, they build over time as your skin responds, heals, and regenerates. That’s why we recommend consistent daily use for 4–6 weeks.
