Ordinary Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2% 30ML — reviews

We recommend using it once daily — many of our customers love it in the morning under sunscreen for that brightening boost, though you can switch to evenings if your skin is on the sensitive side. Apply a few drops to clean, dry skin before your moisturiser. Daily SPF is essential while using this serum, and results build gradually over several weeks, so consistency is key.

Yes — this is exactly the kind of concern it was made for. The combination of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and alpha arbutin targets dark spots, post-blemish marks, dullness and uneven tone, and it suits most skin types. If your skin is sensitive, we suggest starting with evening use and patch-testing on a small area first to see how your skin responds. Answered by the Cicabelle team.

A slight tingle at first is normal with ascorbic acid and usually settles as your skin adjusts, but if you experience real stinging or irritation, pause and let your skin recover. When starting out, we recommend avoiding layering it with strong acids or retinoids in the same routine — use them at alternate times instead — and never skip your daily SPF. If irritation persists, patch-test again or check with a dermatologist before continuing. Answered by the Cicabelle team.
