DESCRIPTION

C1 Vitamin C Power 1 offers an intelligent, new approach to skincare's gold-standard antioxidant powered by our exclusive TTS³ technology.

Specially formulated for skin already acclimatised to vitamin C, this serum combines two forms of vitamin C – one oil-soluble (Lipo-C) and the other water-soluble (Hydro-C) – with EGT Amino Acid. Through powerful synergistic interactions between the two actives, radiance lost to pollution, environmental aggressors, dehydration or stress is restored while the complexion is refined for a more even skin tone and texture.

For additional skin brightening and anti-pigmentation support, the serum is infused with Tranexamic Acid and Niacinamide, two versatile ingredients with multiple benefits. Tranexamic Acid helps reduce inflammation and dark spots, while Niacinamide has been proven to even skin tone, strengthen the barrier function and stimulate collagen synthesis.

Lightweight and traceless on the skin, C1 can be easily incorporated into any daytime or nighttime routine and used in tandem with other products.

HOW TO APPLY

After cleansing, apply 1-2 pumps to dry skin in the morning and/or night. Follow with eye cream and day or night moisturiser. Always wear SPF during the day.

THE POWER OF TTS³

Informed by over 15 years of forward-thinking product and treatment innovation, TTS³ amplifies the efficacy and bioavailability of key skincare ingredients while protecting and reinforcing the skin barrier.

Up to 12x more actives are delivered to targeted sites within the skin

TTS³ features a deep delivery system adapted from medicine. Thanks to the system’s 6-point biomimetic encapsulation, active ingredients reach targeted skin sites with superior precision and are up to 20x more effective than free-form actives, which are susceptible to degradation and require a higher concentration to deliver the same results.

Formula base acts like a second skin for optimal absorption

Every TTS³-powered formula benefits from a biomimetic lamellar emulsion – a technological base that mimics the skin’s structure. Since it has a natural affinity with the skin, it allows for better penetration of each formula’s active ingredients while supporting the barrier function, key for optimal skin health.

Key ingredients work in synergy with hero actives to provide superior results

To further increase the efficacy of hero actives, TTS³ harnesses the power of ingredient synergy. Studies have shown that particular skincare ingredients, when combined, can enhance each other’s performance, leading to greater and faster results while helping promote long-term skin health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does C1 fit into my skin routine?

C1 is a daily serum that helps improve dullness and texture caused by environmental stress, revealing a brighter and more even complexion. Apply it in the morning and/or in the evening after cleansing and allow it to absorb before following with eye cream, moisturiser and SPF (AM).

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

If your skin is prone to sensitivity and/or you haven’t used vitamin C-based skincare before, we recommend taking a phased approach to C1. Start with a biweekly application and monitor how your skin reacts before increasing the frequency of use. If you've been diagnosed with a skin condition like eczema, rosacea or contact dermatitis, we recommend talking to your doctor or dermatologist before proceeding with any active ingredients.

Is it vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, like all Sarah Chapman formulas, C1 is 100% cruelty-free. It’s also vegan and free of SLES, SLS and petrolatum/paraffin/mineral oil.

What skincare concerns does C1 address?

C1 is specially formulated to help minimise signs of pigmentation – including dark spots and an uneven skin tone – while addressing dullness and texture for a brighter and more uniform complexion.

Do I need to wear SPF with C1 serum?

Applying SPF during the day is essential, especially when using active ingredients like vitamin C. The expert combination of vitamin C and SPF also boosts UV protection to help prevent sun-induced skin damage, which can compromise skin health and lead to premature ageing. For SPF, we recommend using our tinted or invisible Skin Insurance face sunscreen.

Can I use A1 and C1 serums at the same time?

If your skin is already acclimated to vitamins A and C and combining the two active ingredients is part of your current daily routine, proceed with applying C1 in the morning and A1 at night for optimal results. For first-time vitamin A and vitamin C users, we recommend gradually introducing the serums into your skincare, starting with a biweekly application. If you notice any signs of irritation, try alternating days until your skin acclimates.

Is the packaging recyclable?

Yes, C1’s carton, lid and bottle are fully recyclable and easy to dispose of after use.

Tailor its use to your skin and needs

I am a big fan of Sarah Chapman products, and while this product is no exception, I have found that after a month of using it daily, my skin has become very sensitized and slightly irritated. For anyone who is either new to vitamin C or who doesn't always tolerate it (like me), I would suggest using this product every second or third day - this tweak has improved my skin as a result.

Love this!

This is one of the best vitamin C products I have ever used and I use it everyday as part of my morning routine. I can see that my skin looks brighter and clearer.

Can’t see any difference.

The bottle is tiny for the cost and I can’t see any difference. I bought the Vit A retinol/retinal recently and it’s really good but again such a tiny amount for the cost. Lasted me 5-6 weeks and it’s circa £90 same at the Vit C.
