Ole Henriksen C-Rush Brightening Gel Cream 1.7 oz — Vitamin C Radiance & 24hr Lightweight Hydration

Ole Henriksen C-Rush Brightening Gel Cream is a peach-tinted, vitamin C–powered gel-cream that delivers immediate radiance and up to 24 hours of lightweight hydration.

This 1.7 oz facial moisturizer pairs three forms of vitamin C with hydrating gel technology to refresh dull skin, smooth the look of fine lines, and create a dewy, even base for makeup. Designed to layer over serums like the OLEHENRIKSEN Truth Serum, the gel-cream absorbs quickly without heavy residue, leaving skin brightened and comfortable throughout the day.

How does this product brighten skin and why three types of vitamin C?

The formula combines pure ascorbic acid with two stabilized vitamin C derivatives—3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate—so the product delivers immediate antioxidant support and ongoing brightening benefits. Each form has complementary stability and skin-penetration properties to help enhance overall radiance without relying on a single ingredient.

• Ascorbic acid: direct, well-known form of vitamin C for instant antioxidant activity
• 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid: a stable derivative that supports even tone
• Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate: oil-soluble C derivative that aids skin delivery and long-term efficacy
• Peach-tinted gel-cream delivers a lit-from-within glow on contact

Will it hydrate my skin all day without feeling greasy?

Yes—the gel-cream texture is engineered to provide noticeable hydration without heaviness. Lightweight gel molecules lock in moisture, while the cream element smooths the surface for a soft, non-greasy finish that works well under makeup.

• Gel-cream consistency absorbs quickly and layers easily
• Formulated for up to 24 hours of hydration when used as directed
• Non-oily finish suitable for combination to dry skin types
• Improves makeup application for smoother foundation and concealer blending

How should I use C-Rush in my skincare routine?

Apply this gel-cream after your vitamin C serum or treatment, such as the OLEHENRIKSEN Truth Serum, in both AM and PM routines. Massage gently in upward, circular motions across face and neck to encourage absorption and even coverage.

• Use after cleansing and serums for best layering
• Apply evenly to face and neck morning and night
• Gently massage upward in circular motions until absorbed
• Follow with sunscreen in the morning for daytime protection

Can this help the look of fine lines and improve makeup finish?

The blend of hydrating ingredients and vitamin C derivatives helps plump the skin’s surface, which can soften the appearance of fine lines and create a smoother canvas for cosmetics. Because it absorbs quickly and leaves a hydrated, even texture, makeup tends to apply and set more evenly.

• Hydration smooths and reduces the appearance of fine lines
• Creates a hydrated base that improves foundation glide and longevity
• Peach tint can subtly brighten skin tone under makeup
• Lightweight feel prevents pilling when layered correctly

Who is this for? Ole Henriksen C-Rush Brightening Gel Cream is suited to anyone seeking a lightweight, vitamin C–rich moisturizer that boosts radiance while offering lasting hydration. It’s a good option for those with normal to dry or combination skin who want a non-greasy feel, better makeup application, and the brightening benefits from multiple forms of vitamin C. For routine inclusion, follow with sunscreen in the morning and use over your preferred serum for best results.

• A brightening, vitamin-C-rich gel cream that hydrates for up to 24 hours and diminishes the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
• For external use only
• Apply evenly to face and neck in the AM and PM after OLEHENRIKSEN Truth Serum
