Dermalogica Biolumin-C Vitamin C Serum 1 fl oz — Brightening, Peptide & AHA Treatment

Dermalogica Biolumin‑C Serum is a daily Vitamin C facial serum that brightens skin, refines texture with gentle AHA exfoliation, and supports firmer-looking skin with peptide technology.

Engineered as a high-performance treatment, this 1 fl oz serum concentrates Vitamin C alongside Palmitoyl Tripeptide‑5 and lactic acid to target uneven tone, surface dullness, and the visible texture changes that come with aging skin. Lightweight and fast‑absorbing, it layers easily under moisturizers and sunscreens and is formulated to strengthen skin’s natural defenses while leaving a radiant finish.

How does this serum help reduce dark spots and uneven tone?

The formula blends stabilized Vitamin C with antioxidant botanicals to address discolored patches and diffuse dullness. Rather than bleaching, it works by supporting skin renewal and protection to reveal a more even-looking complexion over time.

• Stabilized Vitamin C targets brightness and helps reduce the appearance of pigmentation.
• Sophora Japonica Flower Extract provides antioxidant support against oxidative stress.
• Lactic acid gently exfoliates dead surface cells that trap pigment, aiding smoother tone.

What role do peptide and AHA ingredients play in skin texture and firmness?

Palmitoyl Tripeptide‑5 helps support the skin’s structural appearance for a firmer look, while lactic acid encourages subtle surface exfoliation to soften fine lines and improve texture. Together they promote a smoother canvas that reflects light more evenly.

• Palmitoyl Tripeptide‑5 supports visible skin resilience and a firmer appearance.
• Lactic acid gently resurfaces to minimize the look of fine lines and roughness.
• Regular application helps skin look smoother and more refined over several weeks.

How do I use the Biolumin‑C Serum in my daily routine?

Apply a few drops to clean, dry skin once or twice daily before moisturizer and sunscreen. It absorbs quickly, so you can follow with hydrating creams or makeup; always pair with SPF in the morning to protect results.

• Use after cleansing and toning, while skin is dry.
• Dispense 2–3 drops and smooth over face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
• Layer moisturizer and broad‑spectrum SPF in daytime routines.

What notable botanical and hydrating components are included?

In addition to its active trio, the serum includes soothing and moisturizing botanicals to support comfort and surface hydration. These ingredients help the product feel balanced on the skin while delivering antioxidant and moisturizing benefits.

• Sophora Japonica Flower Extract calms oxidative stress and supports radiance.
• Chia Seed Oil supplies lightweight hydration and skin-conditioning lipids.
• Lactic Acid serves as a mild chemical exfoliant for refreshed texture.

Who is this for: Dermalogica Biolumin‑C Serum is aimed at anyone seeking brighter, more even-looking skin and refined texture without heavy creams—ideal for skin showing early signs of aging, sun‑affected discoloration, or general dullness. It suits most skin types that tolerate mild AHAs; those with sensitive skin should patch test and consult a skincare professional before regular use. Use daily with sun protection for best visible outcomes.
