C E Ferulic features a synergistic antioxidant combination of 15% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), 1% vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), and 0.5% ferulic acid to enhance protection against environmental damage caused by free radicals that can contribute to atmospheric aging. This vitamin C serum helps neutralize free radicals induced by UVA/UVB, infrared radiation (IRA), and ozone pollution (O3), which may lead to visible signs of accelerated skin aging. In addition to antioxidant protective benefits, C E Ferulic improves signs of aging and photodamage, the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and the loss of firmness, while brightening skin's complexion.

✓ 15% Pure Vitamin C | ✓ 8x Environmental Protection | ✓ The Antioxidant Gold Standard

SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic is the antioxidant serum that set the gold standard — a patented daily vitamin C treatment that delivers up to 8x your skin's natural environmental protection. Formulated under the Duke Antioxidant patent, it neutralises the free radicals generated by UVA/UVB, infrared radiation and ozone pollution before they accelerate visible ageing.

One of our founder Becci's desert-island products — the vitamin C serum she would never be without in a morning routine.

The formula combines 15% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) with 1% vitamin E and 0.5% ferulic acid — a synergistic trio where the ferulic acid both stabilises the vitamins and boosts their antioxidant power. Beyond protection, C E Ferulic visibly brightens, firms and smooths the look of fine lines and wrinkles over time. If you want one hard-working step that both protects and improves your skin, SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic is it.

Why This Beats a Standard Vitamin C Serum

Plenty of serums contain vitamin C, but few keep it stable or prove it works. C E Ferulic's patented formula holds its 15% L-ascorbic acid at the optimal pH, pairs it with vitamin E and ferulic acid for up to 8x protection, and once absorbed can't be washed or rubbed off — giving lasting antioxidant defence backed by decades of published research.

Best For

Normal, dry and sensitive skin wanting daily antioxidant protection, brighter tone and softer fine lines. Also tested for use after ablative and non-ablative laser treatments (always follow your practitioner's advice).

FAQS

Is SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic the best vitamin C serum for anti-ageing? +

For normal, dry and sensitive skin, it is widely considered the benchmark. It is the #1 dermatologist-recommended vitamin C serum among medical aesthetic brands, backed by decades of published research, and in a 20-week study it enhanced radiance by up to 44.8%, reduced visible wrinkles by up to 36% and increased firmness by 37%. Whether it is the best depends on your skin, but it is the serum others are measured against.

What does C E Ferulic do? +

It provides advanced daily antioxidant protection — up to 8x your skin's natural defence — neutralising the free radicals from UV, infrared and pollution that accelerate ageing. Over time it also brightens, firms and softens the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

Which SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum is right for me — C E Ferulic, Phloretin CF or Silymarin CF? +

All three are built around 15% vitamin C. C E Ferulic suits normal, dry and sensitive skin and is the classic antioxidant serum; Phloretin CF suits combination skin and those focused on discolouration; Silymarin CF is the oil-free option for oily and blemish-prone skin.

How do I use C E Ferulic? +

Every morning, after cleansing, apply 4-5 drops to a dry face, neck and chest before your other products, then finish with a broad-spectrum SPF. Vitamin C and SPF work together for the best environmental protection.

Can I use C E Ferulic with retinol, HA and other actives? +

Yes. Use C E Ferulic in the morning; you can layer HA Intensifier, moisturiser and SPF over the top. Keep retinol for the evening rather than mixing it with vitamin C in the same routine. Apply C E Ferulic first, then your hydrating serums.

Why has my C E Ferulic changed colour or developed a smell? +

Both are completely normal. A slight metallic or coppery scent comes from the pure vitamins, and the serum naturally darkens from clear to gold or amber as it is exposed to air and light. Neither affects how well it works.

Is C E Ferulic suitable for sensitive skin? +

Yes. It is suitable for normal, dry and sensitive skin. If your skin is very reactive or new to vitamin C, start every other morning and build up, and always apply to fully dry skin.

How long until I see results, and how long does a bottle last? +

Many people notice brighter skin quite quickly, with firmness and fine-line benefits building over several weeks (clinical results were measured over 20 weeks). Once opened, use within 6 months for peak potency.

Can I use C E Ferulic during pregnancy or breastfeeding? +

C E Ferulic is retinoid-free, but as it is a potent active serum we are not able to give individual medical advice. We always recommend checking with your GP, midwife or a qualified skincare professional before using any active skincare during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
