C E Ferulic

Our iconic antioxidant serum C E Ferulic features a powerful combination of 15% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), 1% vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), and 0.5% ferulic acid. It works to enhance protection against environmental damage caused by free radicals – which can contribute to atmospheric ageing.

This vitamin C serum helps neutralise free radicals induced by UVA/UVB, infrared radiation (IRA), and ozone pollution (O3), which may lead to visible signs of accelerated skin ageing. Beyond delivering powerful antioxidant protection, C E Ferulic improves signs of ageing and photodamage, the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and the loss of firmness, while brightening skin's complexion.

Benefits:

  • Provides advanced environmental protection by neutralising damaging free radicals.
  • Tackles visible signs of ageing, with benefits such as the improvement of the appearance of lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness, and brightens skin's complexion.
  • Neutralises free radicals on the upper layer of the skin to help prevent the impact of ozone damage to skin*.
  • Once absorbed, this vitamin C serum remains effective for a minimum of 72 hours.
  • Paraben-free and ideal for normal, dry, and sensitive skin types.
  • Tested suitable for use post-laser** (always consult with a physician for individual post-procedure care).
*Measure of 4-hydroxynonenal (4HNE) lipid peroxidation marker indicative of oxidative stress. 4-day in vivo clinical study, 13 subjects. C E Ferulic applied daily vs untreated. Skin samples collected for 4HNE protein analysis at the end of study.
Note: Sunlight interacts with oxygen or molecules in skin to form free radicals. C E Ferulic does not contain sunscreen.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The BEST!! I’ve been using C E Ferulic for over 20 years, and it remains the one skincare product I refuse to be without. Over the years, I’ve tried countless vitamin C serums, but nothing has delivered the same consistent results. My skin looks brighter, smoother, and more even-toned when I use it regularly. It gives my complexion a healthy glow and helps keep fine lines at bay. What impresses me most is that the benefits have stood the test of time. After two decades of use, I genuinely believe this serum has played a significant role in maintaining the overall quality and appearance of my skin. It absorbs quickly, layers well under moisturiser and sunscreen, and fits effortlessly into my morning routine. Yes, it’s an investment, but for me, the results make it absolutely worth it. Few products earn a permanent place in my skincare routine, and C E Ferulic has been my gold standard for more than 20 years.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great skin boost The serum comes in a dark glass bottle which helps to delay degradation and has a pipette dropper to apply without wastage. It is a darker shade and thicker texture than most HA serums. It has a lightweight texture that is very easy to apply the recommended 4-6 drops which are patted into the forehead, checks, chin and neck. It has a lovely silky feel on apple abut needs about 30 seconds to completely dry before adding more product. I have very dry skin and after 2 weeks of use I noticed a slight improvement in the overall texture of my skin with a definite improvement in smoothness. The serum seemed to help with skin smoothness and provided a subtle plumping effect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A high quality vitamin C I had the pleasure to receive a sample of this vitamin C and now after I used it i can tell my honest opinion. The serum comes in a small dark glass bottle,has a clear colour and a serum little but oily consistency but it won't leave your skin oily at all...it absorbs completely in the skin,skin feels hydrated straight after application and matte. After few days of use I noticed a much smoother skin,small pores, more toned and more luminous appearances. It is a good quality serum that definitely works and I would buy it to add on my routine. Thanks for giving me the chance to try.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Change in colour I asked you a question via email about the colour of the CE I just purchased from you. You haven’t replied. I wondered why this new bottle is clear when every other product was a yellow ish colour. I would appreciate an answer. I have always used your products as they are amazing but this appears to be different. Product is great. Service and advice is poor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absorbs beautifully to the skin I love how easy this serum is to use. Absorbs beautifully into the skin and I’ve noticed a difference in how my skin looks. It’s fresher and healthy looking and it’s definitely helping with the fine lines.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Superb I received a sample of the C E Ferulic and now I understand why people rave about it. The texture is lightweight, absorbs quickly and gives my skin a healthy glow without feeling greasy. After a few weeks, my complexion looked brighter, smoother and more even, with fine lines appearing softer. The smell is a little unusual at first, but the results made it worth it for me. I swapped my usual serum for this I'm that impressed by it.
