Description

Description:

Most Vitamin C serums stop at Vitamin C. This one doesn’t. QTWAYS pairs 10% stable Ethyl Ascorbic Acid with 0.5% Ferulic Acid — a synergy first proven in research by Duke University that showed Ferulic Acid doubles Vitamin C’s photoprotection and prevents oxidation. That’s why your serum stays effective longer, not turning yellow in the bottle like unstabilized formulas.

But we didn’t stop at two actives. We added Niacinamide (minimizes pores, controls oil, brightens), Rose Hip Extract (soothes irritation, improves elasticity), and Sodium PCA (deep hydration from within) — making this a 5-active brightening complex that tackles dark spots, uneven tone, dullness, fine lines, and dehydration in one lightweight serum.

The result? Skin that looks visibly brighter, more even, and healthier — without the irritation, without the fragrance, without the unnecessary chemicals. Just clinically-dosed actives that work.

Benefits

  • Fades Dark Spots & Evens Tone — 10% Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (86% pure Vitamin C) inhibits melanin overproduction to visibly lighten hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and post-acne marks in 4–8 weeks.
  • Vitamin C + Ferulic Acid Shield — Ferulic Acid boosts Vitamin C’s antioxidant power, neutralizing free radicals from UV, pollution, and blue light. Prevents premature aging at the source.
  • 72-Hour Hydration Complex — Sodium PCA (natural humectant) + Glycerin lock moisture deep in the skin. Plumps fine lines from within for dewy, bouncy skin without heaviness.
  • Rose Hip Extract Calms & Repairs — Rich in omega fatty acids and antioxidants, Rose Hip Extract reduces redness and soothes sensitive skin. Perfect for Vitamin C beginners worried about irritation.
  • Anti-Aging from Day One — Vitamin C stimulates collagen synthesis for firmer, more elastic skin. Ferulic Acid protects
    existing collagen from UV-induced breakdown. Preventive + corrective anti-agingin one serum.
  • Targets All Types of Dark Spots — Sun damage, post-acne marks, melasma, uneven tan lines. Niacinamide + Vitamin C work on different melanin pathways for faster, more complete brightening.
  • Weightless, Non-Sticky Formula — Water-based serum absorbs in seconds with zero white residue. Comfortable under moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup. Perfect for India’s humid climate.
  • 5-Active Brightening Complex — Why use a single-ingredient serum when you can get Vitamin C + Ferulic Acid + Niacinamide + Rose Hip + Sodium PCA in one? More actives per drop than any competing serum at this price.

Ideal For

  • Dull, tired-looking skin that needs a glow boost.
  • Dark spots from sun damage, acne scars, or hormonal changes.
  • Uneven skin tone and patchy pigmentation.
  • First signs of aging — fine lines, loss of firmness, rough texture.
  •  Oily and combination skin — Niacinamide controls excess oil while Vitamin C brightens.
  • Sensitive skin — Rose Hip Extract soothes; Ferulic Acid stabilizes Vitamin C to prevent irritation.
  • Anyone who’s had Vitamin C serums oxidize on them before — our Ferulic Acid keeps the formula stable.

Our Assurance

  • Dermatologist Tested — Clinically tested for safe nightly use, including on sensitive and acne-prone skin.
  • Fragrance-Free — Zero added fragrance. Many retinol serums (including popular brands) add fragrance that irritates already-sensitized skin.

  • Paraben-Free | SLS-Free | Mineral Oil-Free | Dye-Free.
  • Cruelty-Free — Never tested on animals

A stable and potent form of Vitamin C, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a potent Antioxidant that brightens the skin, improves skin tone, and reduces hyperpigmentation. It also helps stimulate collagen production, promoting firm and youthful-looking skin.

Ferulic Acid

+

Ferulic Acid enhances the stability of Vitamin C and provides strong antioxidant protection against environmental damage. It also helps to reduce visible signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles.

Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer

+

This advanced form of hyaluronic acid delivers intense hydration by attracting water to the skin. It provides long-lasting moisture, plumps the skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Niacinamide(Vitamin B3)

+

Niacinamide helps to reduce the appearance of pores, balances oil production and brightens the complexion. It also strengthens the skin’s natural barrier, improving moisture retention and overall skin health.

Rose Hip Extract

+

Rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, Rose Hip Extract soothes irritated skin, reduces redness, and helps improve skin elasticity. It also helps to brighten the skin and protect it from environmental stressors.

Sodium PCA

+

As a natural humectant, Sodium PCA helps retain moisture in the skin. It works to keep the skin hydrated, reducing the appearance of fine lines and making the skin feel smoother and plump.

Sodium Gluconate

+

Sodium Gluconate helps maintain the serum’s stability and promotes better absorption of the active ingredients into the skin. It also aids in maintaining the skin's moisture balance for a healthy appearance.

Propylene Glycol

+

Propylene Glycol draws moisture from the air and helps retain it in the skin, keeping it hydrated. It enhances the skin's softness and smoothness, preventing dryness and flakiness.

Glycerin

+

Glycerin attracts moisture to the skin, keeping it hydrated for longer. It softens the skin and enhances its elasticity, making it appear more supple and smooth.

Xanthan Gum

+

Xanthan Gum is a natural thickening agent that gives the serum a smooth texture, ensuring it applies evenly on the skin. It helps maintain the serum’s consistency for easy and controlled application.

FAQ's

Q:1 Can I use Vitamin C serum every day?

+

Yes! Unlike retinol, Vitamin C is gentle enough for daily AM and PM use. We recommend using it every morning for best results — Vitamin C + SPF is the gold-standard combo for preventing and reversing sun damage.

Q:2 Will this serum oxidize or turn yellow?

+

Our formula includes 0.5% Ferulic Acid specifically to stabilize Vitamin C and prevent oxidation. Ferulic Acid is clinically shown to extend Vitamin C’s shelf life and potency. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight for best results.

Q:3 How is this different from other brands of Vitamin C serum?

+

Our 10% serum includes 0.5% Ferulic Acid. Most of other brands of 10% version does not have Ferulic Acid. We also include Niacinamide and Rose Hip Extract. So you get 5 actives vs their 3, with Ferulic Acid stabilization, at a competitive price.

Q:4 Can I use this with Niacinamide?

+

Our serum already contains Niacinamide! The old myth that Vitamin C and Niacinamide can’t be used together has been debunked. They actually complement each other — Vitamin C brightens while Niacinamide controls oil and strengthens barrier.

Q:5 Can I use this with retinol?

+

Yes, but not at the same time. Use Vitamin C serum in your MORNING routine. Use QTWAYS 0.3% Retinol Serum in your NIGHT routine. This gives you 24-hour anti-aging coverage without overloading your skin.

Q:6 Is this suitable for oily/acne-prone skin?

+

Absolutely. The water-based, lightweight formula absorbs quickly with no greasy residue. Niacinamide helps control oil production, and Vitamin C is non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores).
