Youth To The People 15% Vitamin C + Clean Caffeine Energy Serum Review
I want to talk about the Youth To The People 15% Vitamin C + Clean Caffeine Energy Serum, one of the best vitamin C serums I’ve tried in the past four years. The serum claims to visibly brighten the skin, reduce puffiness, and protect against signs of aging. Without further ado, here is my review.
The formula includes stable vitamin C derivatives, such as 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, THD Ascorbate, and Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, which deliver the primary benefits of vitamin C. These include enhancing skin brightness, reducing the appearance of post-breakout marks, diminishing wrinkles, visibly firming the skin, lightening hyperpigmentation, evening the skin tone, and protecting against free radical damage.
In addition, the formula is enriched with antioxidants – passion fruit extract, dragon fruit extract, and ergothioneine. It includes a mix of yerba mate extract, guayusa extract, and caffeine, specifically designed to enhance microcirculation and reduce puffiness. Further, the formula also contains humectants such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and mannitol, along with emollients like squalane and lauroyl lysine.
For reference, I have thin combination skin that can’t tolerate L-ascorbic acid serums. Fortunately, the Youth To The People 15% Vitamin C + Clean Caffeine Energy Serum contains stable vitamin C that may not be as sensitizing as ascorbic acid. So, this serum didn’t break me out or cause skin rash. As mentioned before, this serum is really gentle yet effective.
The serum has a milky, gel-like consistency which is different from the more common yellow/orange-coloured vitamin C serums. It feels lightweight and gentle, without any tingling or stinging. I apply 2-4 pumps of the serum onto my face after cleansing, and then I apply face cream and sunscreen. It also layers well, with no pilling, and doesn’t leave a sticky or greasy residue.
Unlike some other vitamin C serums, this serum smells nice. To my nose, it has a fresh ginger citrus scent, which is really subtle and fades away quickly. The scent is not too strong and provides a refreshing wake-up for the morning.
After only a couple of days of using this product, there was a noticeable difference. My skin appeared brighter and had a healthy glow. Regular application a few times each week enhanced both the texture and tone of my skin and it also became firmer to the touch.
Although I don’t have issues with hyperpigmentation or scars, YTTP Vitamin C Serum was beneficial for fading my post-acne dark spots.
I am thoroughly impressed by the YTTP 15% Vitamin C + Clean Caffeine Energy Serum. I have tried several good vitamin C serums in the past, but none of them quite compare to this one, such a pleasant surprise! Additionally, I am happy that the brand has recently landed on many online beauty retailers, and I am looking forward to trying out more products from Youth To The People.
