What is it:
BRIGHTENING + FIRMING SERUM is a waterless vitamin C serum with 20% fully dissolved, stable l-ascorbic acid plus powerful antioxidants to deliver brighter, firmer, younger-looking skin in just two weeks.
Formulated with Matter of Fact's patent-pending technology, to allow for fast and effortless absorption, this potent serum mixes 20% L-Ascorbic Acid plus Ferulic Acid with an Antioxidant Maritime Pine Complex. BRIGHTENING + FIRMING SERUM is clinically proven to visibly improve skin firmness, elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles, and skin tone evenness. Plus the formula is shelf-stable and effective for 24 months.
20% L-ASCORBIC ACID the pure and most robustly researched form of Vitamin C. Visibly brightens skin tone and discolorations, improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and provides antioxidant defense.
FERULIC ACID a potent antioxidant that helps to defend against environmental aggressors and support the potency of L-Ascorbic Acid.
MARITIME PINE COMPLEX an antioxidant-rich botanical extract to soothe and defend skin exposed to pollution.
You may see a change in the color of the product over time. This is due to the Maritime Pine Complex, as well as the Vitamin C in the formula, and does not impact the efficacy of the product. To demonstrate stability over the 2-year shelf life, Matter of Fact conducted both accelerated stability testing at an elevated temperature, and real-time testing at room temperature; under both conditions, the concentration of Vitamin C was minimally affected. In order to ensure continued clinical efficacy over time, Matter of Fact ran an additional clinical study on formula that was 18+ months old (shown to still contain over 19.5% Vitamin C) that demonstrated continued and significant improvements in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, skin discolorations, and skin firmness even near the end of the product’s shelf-life.
Free of parabens, formaldehydes, phthalates, oxybenzone, sulfates SLS & SLES, triclocarban, triclosan, and synthetic fragrance. CRUELTY-FREE. DERMATOLOGICALLY-TESTED & APPROVED.
How it Works:
SUGGESTED USE: Gently apply 1 pump to clean skin. Can be applied on damp or dry face without impacting results. Use sparingly. Can be use morning and/or night. Follow with a moisturizer. It is recommend to start with usage 2-3 times per week, and build up to 1-2 times per day.
TIP: If you’re new to Vitamin C, start slow - use MINIMALIST HYDRATING MOISTURIZER or BARRIER + ANTIOXIDANT TREATMENT before as a buffer while your skin gets used to the formula. Don’t worry - using a moisturizer before does not impact the efficacy or absorption of the serum.
