When we independently tested these serums before creating this advertisement feature for Superdrug, we tried many different expensive and affordable Vitamin C's to provide you with the most-accurate & science-based affordable alternatives.
We ran multiple tests and trialled the products different skin types, to see how effective each of them are at providing the widely-studied benefits of Vitamin C.
Here are the key similarities and differences between the £165 SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic serum, the £69 Medik8 Super C Ferulic serum and the Superdrug Me+ Extra Strength 10% Vitamin C Booster serum:
Key Similarities:
- All 3 have a watery texture that easily absorbs into the skin
- All 3 contain Ferulic Acid which makes the Vitamin C penetrate the skin more effectively, as it helps stabilise the Vitamin C. This is why these 3 serum formulas are superior to many other Vitamin C serums.
- All 3 serums brighten skin, improve skin radiance, reduce appearance of fine lines, provide protection against UV damage and pollution, even out skin tone and improve skin texture!
Key Differences:
- Compared to Medik8's £69 serum, the £13 Superdrug's serum is better for acne-prone skin, and better for beginner users of Vitamin C, as the Medik8 serum has a higher concentration of Vitamin C and is it not recommended for beginners or sensitive skin.
- Skinceuticals and Medik8 contain Vitamin E
