Adore Beauty
About this episode

Welcome to Skincare School the podcast, your ultimate skincare study guide. Join Adore Beauty’s Senior Editor Amy Clark and Dr. Michelle Wong from Lab Muffin Beauty Science as they take things right back to basics to make skin care simple and F-U-N!

What’s on this episode? We’re glad you asked…

Vitamin C and Antioxidants.

Michelle explains why antioxidants - including vitamin C - are basically nightclub bouncers for your skin, and the three ingredients to look out for in a hard-working vitamin C serum.

Plus, we bust some common myths around whether vitamin C products go off and why they're so expensive. And speaking of products, find the best vitamin C for your skin type in our Best In Class segment.
