Superman? No, Super Vitamin C! #NewYorkBiology

Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.

Hello, Fireflies!

More powerful than one type of Vitamin C, fast enough to show almost immediate results, able to catch and neutralize free radicals!  Is it a bird? A plane? It's Superman, Super Vitamin C!

I'm not a morning person, but there are few things I try to do every morning, and drinking a glass of juice is one of them.  I grew up on Orange Juice, because it's high in Vitamin C.  So I just associate Vitamin C with healthy mornings. 

These days, I not only drink it, but I also use it on my face.  The way orange juice is sunshine in a glass, New York Biology Vitamin C Serum is sunshine in a bottle - it has brightening properties that make skin look clear and radiant... and my face can use all the help it can get to look radiant in the morning.  Coffee helps, too...

Very lightly scented with lavender and orange peel oil, this semi-milky/light yellow serum is a really nice consistency.  It doesn't run away like some watery serums, but it's not too thick to spread evenly and easily.  It also absorbs very quickly, with no residue - and doesn't interfere with my makeup application, either.

I also like the amber bottle that helps protect the serum from light.  I'd prefer a pump to a dropper, but it does the job.

Inspired by the clean label with gold and black, I did some white nails with black and gold stripes.  The base is Cult Nails Tempest, and I used black and gold glitter stripers with striping tape to create the nailart.

Vitamin C is notoriously unstable and quick to degrade, but New York Biology claims that their serum is shelf-stable for a year because of their 3 forms of Ascorbic Acid - plus, they only create small batches that sell out about every 30 days.  Using this twice a day, it won't last a year anyway, but it's good to know that it will stay fresh the whole time I'm using it.  If you're ever unhappy with the serum, however, they have an unconditional money-back guarantee.  With natural ingredients, and a paraben-, sulfate- and cruelty-free formula, plus a light, pleasant scent - what's not to like?  Plus, my oily, aging skin loves it.  The formula doesn't make my skin greasy or break me out, nor is it irritating.  My skin is soft and bright. And though I can't see Free Radicals with my eyes, my skin looks less damaged, and more youthful.

If you're concerned about free radical damage, or you're starting to feel like your skin is getting dull or lackluster, you might benefit from adding Vitamin C to your skincare.  For more information, or to purchase New York Biology Super Vitamin C Serum, you can find it on Amazon, where it currently retails for $21.49.
