Vitamin C is considered one of the most effective anti-aging ingredients and is key to maintaining smooth, even, glowing skin. While you may be getting Vitamin C from your diet, you can’t guarantee it’s reaching your skin directly.
Using a serum or other topical product is the most direct way to achieve these benefits: La Roche-Posay Pure Vitamin C 10 Serum is one of the best on the market, and it’s just reduced from £45 to £36 at Boots, which is cheaper than buying it at LookFantastic (£45).
Formulated with pure Vitamin C to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, Hyaluronic Acid hydrates and plumps skin, while Salicylic Acid gently exfoliates to reveal a brighter, more even tone and texture.

To prep your skin beforehand, you can use it with La Roche-Posay Soothing Toning Lotion, currently on sale in Boots for £12. This serum has a rating of 4.2 out of 388 reviews.
One very satisfied shopper wrote: “After first use, my skin looked more even and softer. I could really feel the exfoliation and cell turnover, most notably in the clarity of my pores. I’ve seen visible results in fine lines around my neck and eyes, and my partner of 14 years has complimented me on how my skin is the best it’s ever been.”

“It works great for acne prone skin. It has reduced the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and has also cut down on the amount of acne I usually get,” wrote another, while a third commented: “It has done wonders for my skin. It has reduced the fine lines around my eyes and my skin feels more hydrated. It’s also a great base for make-up, it absorbs well into the skin without being sticky.”
Reviews say that while it’s an overall great product, some customers weren’t as impressed with the results: “I’ve been using this product and the niacinamide twice daily for three months and it’s not doing anything to reduce the pigmentation on my face. I have another bottle and plan to use it for another month but I’m not seeing a difference.”
