How It Works

C25 Cream combines complementary antioxidant vitamins and botanical extracts to protect the skin and improve visible signs of aging.

• The 25% stabilized vitamin C complex uses silanol technology to help improve the delivery and stability of vitamin C. It provides antioxidant protection while supporting radiance and a more even-looking complexion.
• Retinyl palmitate, a vitamin A ester, supports skin renewal and helps improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven texture.
• Panthenol, also known as vitamin B5, helps maintain hydration, soothe the skin and reinforce moisture-barrier comfort.
• Vitamin E provides additional antioxidant protection, while polyphenol-rich grape seed and white mulberry extracts help defend against oxidative stress and support a brighter-looking complexion.

Clinical Results

In an in vivo study evaluating the moisturizing potential of C25 Cream:

•  Skin hydration increased by 65%

In a separate in vivo study evaluating C25 Cream in combination with Light Ceutic over 56 days:

• Complexion luminosity increased by 14%
• The appearance of crow’s feet wrinkles was reduced by 12%

The studies were conducted by independent European research organizations. Combination-routine results do not represent C25 Cream used alone. Individual results may vary.

How to Use

• Apply every morning to clean, dry skin.
• Distribute a small amount evenly over the face and neck.
• Avoid direct contact with the eyes.
• Allow the cream to absorb before applying sunscreen.
• Follow every morning with a broad-spectrum SPF 50.

C25 Cream contains a vitamin A derivative. Consider your total daily vitamin A exposure before use.

Dermaceutic does not recommend C25 Cream during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation

Dermaceutic C25 Cream is an excellent daily antioxidant product for clients experiencing dullness, uneven tone or early visible signs of skin aging.

Although its name highlights vitamin C, the product has a cream texture rather than the feel of a traditional water-based vitamin C serum. It may provide sufficient morning hydration for normal, combination or oilier skin.

Dry or dehydrated skin may benefit from applying a hydrating serum or moisturizer beneath C25 Cream.

Always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF 50. Antioxidants complement sunscreen by helping defend against oxidative stress, but they do not replace daily UV protection.

Clients using retinol or exfoliating acids in the evening may still use C25 Cream in the morning, provided the skin remains comfortable and adequately moisturized.
