Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum with Plant Hyaluronic Acid 30ml – Brightening Antioxidant Serum for Radiant Skin
Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum with Plant Hyaluronic Acid 30ml – Brightening Antioxidant Serum for Radiant Skin
Antipodes Glow Ritual Vitamin C Serum combines stable vitamin C with plant-derived hyaluronic acid to deliver dual brightening and hydrating action in a single, lightweight serum. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is the gold standard antioxidant for skin brightening — inhibiting melanin synthesis to fade pigmentation and uneven skin tone, while stimulating collagen production for firmer, more youthful-looking skin. Plant hyaluronic acid provides deep skin hydration that plumps and smooths. Certified organic, vegan, cruelty-free. Made in New Zealand.
- Stable Vitamin C — brightens pigmentation, stimulates collagen, antioxidant protection
- Plant Hyaluronic Acid — deep skin hydration and plumping
- Brightens uneven skin tone and reduces hyperpigmentation
- Supports collagen synthesis for firmer skin
- 30ml — certified organic, vegan, NZ made
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Vitamin C do for skin?
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a cornerstone anti-ageing and brightening ingredient with multiple mechanisms: it inhibits tyrosinase — the enzyme that synthesises melanin — reducing hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. It is also a cofactor in collagen synthesis, and a potent antioxidant that neutralises UV-generated free radicals. Used consistently, it produces measurable brightening, firming, and protective effects.
What is plant hyaluronic acid and is it different from regular HA?
Plant-derived hyaluronic acid (typically from cassava or wheat fermentation) is chemically identical to HA from animal sources — it provides the same extraordinary water-binding capacity (up to 1000x its weight in water). Antipodes uses plant-derived HA for their vegan formulation, delivering the same deep plumping and hydration benefits as conventional HA from a sustainable, cruelty-free source.
When in my routine should I use the Glow Ritual Serum?
Apply after toning (the Ananda Toner is an excellent complement) and before moisturiser. Apply 3–4 drops to the face and neck and gently press into the skin. Allow 1–2 minutes to absorb before moisturiser. Use morning and/or evening — Vitamin C is beneficial both morning (antioxidant protection against UV free radicals) and evening (collagen-stimulating and repair effects during sleep).
Will the Vitamin C serum irritate sensitive skin?
Antipodes uses a stable Vitamin C formulation at a concentration balanced for effectiveness and tolerability. Certified organic botanicals and the absence of harsh preservatives or alcohol make this suitable for most sensitive skin types. If you are new to Vitamin C serums, start with evening-only use and build to twice daily as your skin acclimatises.
How long until I see brightening results?
Consistent daily Vitamin C use typically produces visible brightening improvements within 4–8 weeks. Hyperpigmentation reduction takes longer — 3–6 months of daily use for meaningful improvement in stubborn dark spots. Consistent, patient daily use is the key to Vitamin C's cumulative brightening effects.
