Review: Minimalist Vitamin C 10% + AG 1% for brighter & illuminating skin

I have a thing for Vitamin C serums. I can call it love. And when love comes in its purest form, you call it Minimalist Vitamin C 10% + AG 1% daily serum. This review is worth a read.

Vitamin C (Ethyl Ascorbic Acid) 10% + Acetyl Glucosamine 1% is a glow-boosting daily serum. If you have lifeless skin damaged by daily sun exposure, this is your rescue operation. This serum is packaged with the goodness of Vitamin C that spreads its wings to brighten and tone sun damaged and dull skin with dark spots.

Minimalist Vitamin C 10% + AG 1% Review

My experience

Vitamin C 10% + AG 1% is my third product from Minimalist and like every other product, this one’s a delight too.

You must read Minimalist Squalane 100% review here. This was their first product tried by me. It’s an all purpose lightweight moisturiser.

Next to read is the Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 review here. This serum is the perfect base for all other serums and melts into the skin like nobody’s business.

Let’s talk about facts

Coming to Vitamin C 10% + AG 1%, the serum is made with stabilized Vitamin C derivative “Ethly Ascorbic Acid” which has 86% pure Vitamin C content. FYI- that is much higher than 40-50% content present in other Vitamin C derivatives.

Vitamin C, which anyways is much needed everyday in the form of food, is a proven skin-brightener and antioxidant for decades. Vitamin C is a choice of all skin specialists as it boosts collagen formation and effectively targets visible signs of ageing (Who doesn’t want that?), plus gives the skin a much-needed glow.

I use the product AM & PM. Whenever I want my skin to look instantly plum & hydrated, I use it with Minimalist Hyaluronic Acid 2%+ B5. And yes, always layer the Vitamin C serum with a good sunscreen when using during the day.

Price & Availability

Rs 699/- for 30 ml. Buy it online from Minimalist here.

It’s a good product at a good price. All the other Vitamin C serums from good brands are mostly 1K plus. Minimalist gets affordable skincare and doesn’t compromise on the efficacy of the products.

Do try the product and let me know how you find it. Are you using any Minimalist product? Will you give this product a try?
