This vitamin-packed serum is exactly that – and it delivers all the nourishment that your skin could need, in a lightweight, glossy serum that doesn’t leave your face and neck feeling sticky or heavy like some traditional night creams.

Is this serum suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes! This serum was formulated with sensitivity in mind and is free from common irritants like fragrances or harsh alcohols. It’s designed to calm and strengthen, not overwhelm it.
How do I slot this serum into my routine?
Use it at night alongside your active ingredients, such as retinoids, to help buffer irritation and speed up recovery. Or use it alone on nights off from said actives to replenish and reset your skin.
Can I use it in the morning too?
While it’s designed for overnight repair, you can also use Vitamin Repair in the morning, especially during colder months or if your skin feels particularly dry or tight.
Do I still need a moisturiser when using the product?
That depends on your skin type. If you’re dry or dehydrated – and want to seal moisture into your skin even more – follow with your usual moisturiser. If you’re oilier or more combination, you’ll probably find the serum gives enough hydration on its own.
How soon will I see results?
You can notice the moisture boost immediately, but for long-term improvements in tone, texture, and resilience, give it four to six weeks of consistent use.
Is it safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
As this serum doesn’t contain retinoids or other ingredients contraindicated in pregnancy or breastfeeding, it should be safe to use. But if you’re ever unsure, it’s always best to check with your GP or midwife.
