Did you know Topical vitamin C is a science-backed doctor’s-favourite that may help slow premature skin aging, prevent sun damage, and improve the appearance of wrinkles, dark spots, and acne?

SkinCeuticals Skincare: CE Ferulic Vs Phloretin CF

For skin experts, vitamin C is one of the best anti-ageing ingredients out there. However, there are endless choices in the market. Achieving the best results means understanding your skin and choosing the right products. At Dr. Roz Kamani’s office, we carry SkinCeuticals—a line of advanced clinical skincare, with two incredible serums: C E Ferulic, which features a synergistic antioxidant combination of 15% pure vitamin C and Phloretin CF, a patented unique combination of 2% phloretin.

Both products contain Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid. However, subtle differences in concentrations and antioxidant additions make these products more suitable and effective for different skin types and concerns.

Phloretin CF Serum contains 10% L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), a lower and more gentle concentration, 2% Phloretin, and 0.5% Ferulic Acid. This patented combination works incredibly to address uneven skin tone and discoloration. Because the formula is relatively gentle, it’s a good choice for sensitive or acne-prone skin, especially considering that acne can contribute to hyperpigmentation.

Compared to Phloretin CF, SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic Serum offers a much greater concentration of Vitamin C at 15%. Combined with 1% Alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E) and 0.5% Ferulic Acid, it is incredibly effective at rejuvenating dull, dry skin and, when combined with Vitamin E, works synergistically to unlock remarkable anti-ageing perks, specifically the improvement of fine lines and wrinkles for some of the best results we’ve seen from a topical.

Broadly, normal to dry types will find CE Ferulic Serum more valuable, while oily or combination types will benefit from Phloretin CF Serum. Skin is different for everyone, which is why Dr. Roz Kamani offers customized consultations for clients looking for the right products to care for and rejuvenate their skin.
