Formulated with a high concentration of vitamin C, the NEOVA C 20+ antioxidant serum helps brighten the skin while defending against environmental stressors. It supports a more even-looking tone and improves the appearance of fine lines and dullness. With consistent use, skin appears more radiant, protected, and revitalized.

What it's formulated to do

• All-new ingredient ratio of 20% Vitamin C, 1% Vitamin E, 0.5% Ferulic Acid, and 0.5% Natural AHA's delivers more overall skin texture and tone, fine line-smoothing, brightening, and re-texturizing power.
• Less than 20% water content, which makes it a more stable formula, while decreasing the traditional Vitamin C “scent.”
• Optimal 3.5 pH controls reactive sensitivity.
• The built-in reservoir of natural Alpha Hydroxy Acids strengthens the endurance of companion antioxidants and skillfully protects skin DNA.
• Weightless in texture.

TEXTURE

Light serum, pale yellow in color, absorbs quickly and completely, leaving no after-residue.

KEY INGREDIENTS

L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): The most active form of vitamin C; neutralizes free radicals, protects against oxidative stress, and visibly brightens the skin for a more even, radiant appearance.
Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E): Antioxidant that helps protect against free radical damage while supporting the skin's natural moisture barrier.
Ferulic Acid: Helps stabilize vitamins C and E while improving the stability and performance of antioxidants.
Natural Alpha Hydroxy Acids: Pure extracts of Bilberry [Lactic], Sugar Cane [Glycolic], Orange, and Lemon [Citric] overcome the complexity of delivering Vitamin C to living cells beneath the skin barrier. Once the pathways are cleared, Vitamin C absorption surges, cellular turnover picks up, and collagen production kicks-starts.

FAQs About C 20+

How long does C 20+ remain effective after opening?

Unopened C 20+ products typically remain stable for up to 3 years from the date of manufacture when stored properly. Once opened, it is best to use the product within 6 months to ensure optimal potency and performance, particularly for maintaining vitamin C stability and antioxidant effectiveness. For safety and effectiveness, be sure to dispense products in a sanitary manner.

How is C 20+ different from other vitamin C serums on the market?

C 20+ is formulated with a higher concentration of 20% L-ascorbic acid, compared to many leading vitamin C serums that typically contain around 10–15%. This higher concentration is designed to deliver more intensive antioxidant support for the skin.

It also includes tocopherol acetate (vitamin E derivative), which offers enhanced stability and improved resistance to UV degradation compared to standard vitamin E forms. In addition, C 20+ is formulated with natural alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) that help enhance vitamin C penetration and overall effectiveness.

Unlike many vitamin C products that lower pH significantly to improve absorption (which can increase irritation potential) C 20+ is also formulated at a pH of approximately 2.5, balancing potency with a more controlled level of skin tolerance for daily use.

Is C 20+ suitable for hyperpigmentation and dark spot skincare routines?

Yes. Vitamin C is widely used in routines targeting uneven tone, as it helps brighten skin and reduce the appearance of discoloration over time with consistent use.

How long should I wait after using a copper peptides mask before applying Vitamin C or exfoliating acids?

If you are using a high concentration Vitamin C serum (such as ascorbic acid) after a copper peptides mask, we recommend waiting about one hour between applications. For this reason, many people prefer using Vitamin C in the morning and copper peptides in the evening. If the Vitamin C is part of a moisturizer, this waiting period is typically not necessary.

When it comes to exfoliating acids (AHAs), they are generally used before copper peptides as part of an exfoliating step. In most routines, there is no concern when copper peptides are applied after AHA use, such as following a peel.
