Why it works

20% Stabilised Vitamin C Complex + Ferulic Acid + Vitamin E

A buffered antioxidant trio that:

  • Visibly brightens and evens skin tone
  • Defends against free radicals and UV-induced aging
  • Supports healthy collagen production

Unlike harsh ascorbic acid, our formula uses Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate for superior stability and tolerability in sensitive skin.

Claim Supported: Helps reduce the look of pigmentation, enhances skin brightness, and supports defense against premature aging caused by environmental stressors.

VIEW SUPPORTING EVIDENCE

Botanical Hyaluronic Acid + MSM

  • Cassia Angustifolia (Botanical HA): Plant-derived moisture magnet that hydrates deeply without clogging pores

Together, they improve elasticity and hydration, enhancing Vitamin C delivery without compromising the barrier.

Clinical Insight

CalmLift Vitamin Concentrate is mapped to the Preserve, Invest, and Activate phases of the P.I.L.L.A.R. Method® our registered clinical framework for sensitive, aging skin. It’s not about forcing brightness. It’s about restoring clarity with calm, buffered precision.

Contraindications

Do not use if: Experiencing active dermatitis or broken skin. Using prescription skin lightening agents (unless cleared by your provider). Immediately post-needling or laser (wait 2–3 days).

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this safe for sensitive or reactive skin?

Yes. This formula was specifically designed for sensitivity. It’s stabilised, buffered, and supported by botanicals that calm and reinforce the barrier.

How is this different from other Vitamin C serums?

Most Vitamin C products use unstable L-ascorbic acid, which oxidizes quickly and often irritates the skin. CalmLift uses a stabilised form (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate), making it far more tolerable, especially for redness-prone or aging skin.

Can I use this while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Vitamin C is generally considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but always check with your healthcare provider.

Can I pair this with other actives?

Yes. Use in the morning under SPF, and pair with CalmLift Retinol Concentrate and Retinol Crème at night. Add Barrier Concentrate if your skin needs buffering support.

How long will it last?

30mL = ~60 uses (1 pump) or 30–45 uses (1–2 pumps)

That’s 4–8 weeks of nightly results.

Will this replace my brightening serum?

Yes — especially if you're sensitive to acids. This is your non-exfoliating, antioxidant-rich solution for daily clarity and tone correction.
