Frequently asked questions

Is 10% Vitamin C Brightening Face Serum fragrance-free?

Is 10% Vitamin C Brightening Face Serum paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in 10% Vitamin C Brightening Face Serum's listed ingredients. Worth keeping in perspective: parabens are among the least common cosmetic allergens, so "paraben-free" matters far less for reactive skin than avoiding fragrance or the preservative MI/MCI.
