HORACE Vitamin C + Glycolic Acid Face Serum 30ml — Unscented Brightening Treatment for Dull Skin, Gentle Texture Refinement

HORACE Vitamin C + Glycolic Acid Face Serum is a lightweight, unscented 30ml treatment designed to brighten dull skin and help even tone for a fresher, more radiant complexion.

This serum blends stabilized Vitamin C with a gentle percentage of glycolic acid, plus botanicals like White Tea Extract and Ginseng Flower, to target surface dullness and texture without added fragrance, silicones, or mineral oils. Formulated with 95.5% naturally-derived ingredients and vegan-friendly components, it slots easily into morning or evening routines for all skin types, including sensitive skin. The pipette delivers precise doses—three drops are enough to treat the face before moisturiser—and ongoing use supports visible improvements in radiance over weeks.

How does this serum help brighten skin safely?

The formula uses Vitamin C for antioxidant support and glycolic acid to gently smooth the skin’s surface, helping light reflect more evenly for a brighter appearance. It avoids strong fragrances and harsh fillers, focusing on ingredients that boost clarity while maintaining tolerability for daily use. Results depend on consistent application and sun protection during the day.

• Stabilised Vitamin C to reduce surface dullness and improve luminosity
• Low-concentration glycolic acid to refine texture without over-exfoliating
• Supports smoother skin when used 1–2 times daily with sunscreen in morning routines

Will this serum suit sensitive or combination skin?

Yes—its unscented, silicone-free base and high proportion of naturally-derived ingredients make it suitable for many skin types. Ginseng Flower and White Tea Extract add soothing and antioxidant benefits that help support skin comfort. Patch testing is still recommended for very reactive skin, and users should introduce the product gradually.

• Unscented and free from silicones and mineral oils to reduce irritation risk
• Formulated for sensitive, oily, dry, and combination skin types
• Introduce slowly: start with nightly use, then increase to morning or twice daily as tolerated

How should I use the serum for best results?

Dispense three drops onto clean, dry skin using the pipette and massage evenly across the face before applying moisturiser. For daytime use, follow with broad-spectrum SPF to protect renewed skin; at night, pair with a gentle hydrator. Consistency matters—visible improvement in radiance is typically noticed over several weeks.

• Apply to cleansed face and neck; three drops typically cover the face
• Use morning and/or night; always apply SPF during daytime routines
• Store away from direct sunlight to preserve ingredient stability

What active and botanical ingredients are included?

Key actives are Vitamin C for brightening and glycolic acid for gentle exfoliation; White Tea Extract and Ginseng Flower complement these with antioxidant and soothing properties. The formulation prioritises naturally-derived components while remaining vegan and free from common irritants like added fragrance.

• Vitamin C: brightening and antioxidant support
• Glycolic Acid: surface exfoliation to smooth texture
• White Tea Extract & Ginseng Flower: botanical support for tone and suppleness

Who is this for: This HORACE serum is aimed at men seeking a straightforward, effective product to refresh a dull complexion and even skin tone without strong scents or heavy textures. It’s a practical choice for anyone wanting a simple step that fits into a minimalist grooming routine—especially those new to active skincare ingredients or looking for a vegan, naturally-derived option. If you have highly reactive skin or use multiple exfoliating actives, introduce this serum gradually and consult a dermatologist for personalised advice.
