  • How to use Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum 30ml

    1. Prep Your Skin: Begin with a thoroughly cleansed and toned face. Ensure your skin is slightly damp with toner, as this helps with the absorption of the subsequent serum.
    2. Dispense the Serum: Gently squeeze the dropper to draw the serum from the bottle. Hold the dropper slightly above your palm and dispense approximately 2-3 drops of the serum into your clean hand. Avoid touching the dropper directly to your skin to maintain product purity.
    3. Warm the Product: Lightly rub your palms together to slightly warm the serum. This activation step helps the ingredients penetrate the skin more effectively.
    4. Application: Gently press your palms against your face, starting with the largest areas like the cheeks and forehead. Use light, patting motions to distribute the serum evenly across the entire face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area.
    5. Drying Time: Allow the serum a full 30 to 60 seconds to absorb completely into the skin. You should feel a slight, non-sticky layer of hydration before moving to the next step.
    6. Follow Up: Once the serum is fully absorbed, continue with your regular skincare routine, typically applying a moisturizer to seal in the active ingredients, followed by sunscreen if used in the morning.

  • Integrating Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum 30ml into Your Skincare Flow

    • Optimal Time: Ideal for use during the morning routine. Applying Vitamin C in the morning allows it to work synergistically with sunscreen to boost UV defense and protect against free radical damage throughout the day.
    • Layering Sequence: Always apply the serum after toning and before moisturizing. This Korean-inspired layering ensures the high-concentration active ingredient reaches the skin first.
    • Sunscreen is Mandatory: When using Vitamin C products, never skip broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) during the day, as it maximizes the serum's benefits and protects sensitized skin.
    • Targeted Boost: For areas with specific concerns (e.g., dark spots, dullness), apply an extra, localized drop and gently tap it in before proceeding to the full-face application.
    • Niacinamide Note: If your routine includes a separate Niacinamide serum, apply the Vitamin C serum in the morning and the Niacinamide serum in the evening, or alternate days, to ensure each active ingredient works at its peak efficacy.

Certifications & Awards

Dr.Althea is a respected Korean derma-cosmetics brand known for its use of potent, tested ingredients. This serum is formulated and manufactured in South Korea under strict KGMP (Korean Good Manufacturing Practice) guidelines, ensuring high quality and stability. It has been clinically tested for skin irritation suitability and consistently receives high ratings from Korean beauty consumers and reviewers for its non-irritating, yet effective, brightening performance.

Sustainability / Ethical Sourcing Information

The Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum utilizes stable forms of Vitamin C to minimize degradation, ensuring product efficacy. The formulation is cruelty-free and does not contain parabens, artificial colorants, or mineral oil.

Scent, texture and feel of Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum 30ml

  • Scent: The serum has a very subtle, naturally derived citrus scent due to the high concentration of Vitamin C derivatives and fruit extracts. It is free from harsh artificial fragrances, making the light, refreshing aroma dissipate quickly after application.
  • Texture: It features a lightweight, translucent gel-to-water texture that is slightly thicker than toner but far lighter than a typical oil-based serum. This consistency ensures excellent spreadability and rapid absorption.
  • Feel: Upon application, the serum feels cooling and instantly hydrating. It absorbs quickly without leaving a heavy or sticky residue, providing a smooth, plumped finish. There is no tingling or heating sensation, making it comfortable even for sensitive skin seeking the benefits of Vitamin C

    Most common questions about Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum 30ml

    Is this serum suitable for sensitive skin, as Vitamin C can sometimes cause irritation?
    Yes, the Dr.Althea Vitamin C Boosting Serum is specifically formulated with stable and gentle Vitamin C derivatives, such as Ascorbyl Glucoside, rather than pure L-Ascorbic Acid (LAA). This derivative is much less prone to irritation, making the serum well-tolerated and suitable for most sensitive skin types looking for brightening and antioxidant benefits.

    How should I store the serum to ensure it remains potent?
    Vitamin C products are sensitive to light and air. You should store the bottle in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Ensure the dropper cap is securely fastened immediately after use to minimize oxidation and prolong the serum’s efficacy.

    Can men use this product, and are the steps different?
    Absolutely. Skincare is universal. Men can follow the exact same step-by-step instructions. The serum's light, non-greasy texture makes it comfortable and fast-absorbing for all skin types, including those who prefer minimal residue.

    How long will it take to see results from using the serum?
    While hydration and a refreshed look can be immediate, noticeable improvements in skin tone, reduction of dark spots, and overall brightening typically begin after 4 to 6 weeks of consistent, daily use. Results are cumulative and best achieved when paired with diligent sunscreen application.

    What is the function of Sea Buckthorn Water in the formula?
    Sea Buckthorn Water (Hippophae Rhamnoides Water) is used as the primary base instead of purified water. It is naturally rich in Vitamin C, E, and potent antioxidants, which significantly boosts the serum's brightening and nourishing capabilities, offering additional soothing benefits beyond the synthetic Vitamin C derivative.
