This is the first time I have ever skipped my morning serum. One drop of this and my skin looks glowy, protected, and honestly better than before.
Sandee R.
This is an incredible light weight sunscreen that is tinted to fit your coloring! It goes on smoothly and is definitely effective!!
Syndie
Absolutely LOVE this product. Zinc products are usually difficult to apply due to its thick consistency. However, this product goes on easily and absorbs in quicker than other products that I've tried. I will be ordering it again.
Vickiem
I LOVE THIS SUNSCREEN! Definitely the best I have had an keep it in my car at all times
Elizabeth S.
This TruSkin tinted sunscreen is a breakthrough. It does not cause a breakout, does not feel hot and greasy, keeps the sun off, stays on all day, and looks very nice. Great product!
Jamie
I have tried so many sunscreens and I’ve realized my sensitive skin responds better to mineral sunscreens. But every one I try either feels disgusting or is leaving my face extremely pale or greasy. Then, about 5 hours later my face looks dry. The struggle is real trying to find a good sunscreen for the face. I am so happy I stumbled on this one. Holy grail product for life 🙌🏻 Absorbs fairly quickly, blends in like butter and is invisible on the skin. My pores look smaller and the ingredients list is wonderful. I actually feel good about wearing this one. I’ve had it for over a month now and I wear it daily. My skin has actually improved since using this sunscreen. I hope they never discontinue this product. I love it!
Customer Review
The TruSkin facial sunscreen serum has a beige tint that completely disappears when I apply it to my fair skin. I thought I might need to layer a moisturizer on top of this because it is a serum, but I don’t. It feels like a lightweight oil on my skin. Because it leaves a light sheen on my face, I use some face powder over this on my T-zone. It comes in a glass bottle with a well-designed pump. I love that this product is free from Parabens and Phthalates.
DodgeGirl
Fragrance free and unscented! Not heavy, not drying, not oily. But it does feel emollient. Blends in nicely and does not feel like a mask or like it’s just sitting on top of the skin. I like it
  • Product Details

    One of skincare's true agents of change, Vitamin C delivers the kind of complexion-enhancing results that most actives only aspire to. Our best-selling serum intentionally pairs this respected antioxidant with four of skin's best buds—Vitamin E, Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe, and MSM. Packed with a purposeful blend of skin-friendly botanicals, our silky, lightweight formula is designed to support skin's natural radiance, hydration, and overall healthy appearance.


    TruSkin's blend features Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP), a gentler yet just as effective form of Vitamin C compared to commonly used Ascorbic Acid. SAP is highly stable and mimics skin’s natural pH levels, helping combat irritation. SAP also breaks down slower compared to other forms of Vitamin C, meaning longer-lasting benefits.


    Vitamin C is well known for improving the appearance of fine lines, uneven skin tone, and dark spots caused by sun exposure. This makes it a valuable addition to routines targeting dullness, blemishes, and signs of aging. When paired with Vitamin E, it provides enhanced antioxidant support against environmental stressors. Witch Hazel tightens pores so Vitamin C can work more effectively and MSM helps Vitamin C penetrate and absorb into the skin.


    Joining forces with these key actives are Hyaluronic Acid and botanical alternative to Hyaluronic Acid, boosting hydration and nourishing skin. Gotu Kola (Cica), Aloe Vera, and Jojoba Oil are added to nourish and moisturize skin, helping to counteract any irritation.


    Our purposeful, botanical-infused blends provide the skin with the nutrients it craves to support barrier function, suppleness, and luminosity. TruSkin prioritizes skin-friendly formulations of well-known ingredients, like the more gentle but effective form of Vitamin C called Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, to ensure that all skin types can enjoy these benefits.

    Product can be used on face, neck and back of hands 1-2 times a day. 


    *IMPORTANT - ALWAYS do a patch test by applying the serum to a small area of your arm, face or neck at least 24-48 hours before applying to your entire face to make sure the ingredients are suitable for your skin.

THE UGLY TRUTH

Why does the 'Glow' feel like a punishment?

Most vitamin c serums use L-Ascorbic Acid. It works, but it's highly acidic, unstable, and notorious for irritating sensitive skin.

"It burned the second I applied it, and left my face angry and red all day."

Review photo

"Instead of glowing, my reactive skin broke out in tiny, textured bumps within days."

Review photo

"Halfway through the bottle, it turned a dark orange and started smelling like copper. I had to throw it away."

The L-Ascorbic Acid Trap

Most popular serums rely on L-Ascorbic Acid. It is highly acidic, notoriously unstable, and oxidizes fast. When it hits sensitive skin, it triggers redness, stinging, and breakouts instead of delivering a healthy glow. You aren't doing it wrong—the formula is.

These are my before pics…

I just received this product & in a couple of days I’ll be receiving the Vit C moisturizer as well! I can’t wait to start using these & see what kind of results I can get on my freckles & dark spots. I’m 45yo & I have been blessed with good skin. I never struggled with acne & even now only get a random breakout here & there. The one thing I do struggle with is dark spots (as u can see). I don’t have a ton of wrinkles but there are some there that I’d love to get rid of! I’m hoping this helps with that as well. These pics were taken with obviously no makeup or anything on my skin. I did try the Vit C serum today & it goes on super smooth & leaves ur skin so soft. It’s not oily or greasy at all. It dries completely & leaves ur skin so soft & smooth.

SAVED MY SKIN

Vivian

SAVED MY SKIN

This product saved my skin. I did NOT receive this at a discount and this is NOT a sponsored review. I seldom write reviews but just had to review this product. I’ve been struggling with acne for YEARS. I have very acne-prone skin. I get a new pimple almost every day and it seemed like there was never a time I didn’t have a pimple on my face. Acne leaves super dark blemishes/scars on my face. I do believe my acne is partly genetic - another reason may be stress from college and not getting enough sleep. I’ve tried all different types of moisturizers and cleansers. Nothing worked. However I bought this serum on a whim. Omgggg. Guys. Literally my face stopped flaring within 3 days. I was PIMPLE FREE FOR MORE THAN 48 hours (a new record). In the photo, the left side was day 1 of applying serum. As you can see I had extremely dark blemishes and active pimples. The photo to the right shows my skin exactly 2 months later. Blemishes have faded DRASTICALLY and I have no active breakouts. This hasn’t happened in years. I truly and honestly think it is due to this product. If you are hesitant, don’t be BUY IT!

AMAZING PRODUCT

AMAZING PRODUCT

I had some dark melasma sun damage right above my lip (I swear it was NOT a mustache) 🤦🏽‍♀️ and had tried many different products to try to lighten it. I even ordered a $175 regimen that I used all summer, and it didn’t help at all. The first picture was taken August 3, 2021 and the second one this morning, October 18, 2021. Both are with zero makeup and freshly washed skin. This product is fantastic for brightening, evening skin tone, and lightening melasma. 1000% recommend to anyone who has any of these issues!!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Unlike many traditional serums that use harsh L-ascorbic acid, we formulate with Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP). It's a highly stable, gentle form of Vitamin C that mimics your skin's natural pH, delivering visible brightening without the common stinging, redness, or irritation.

For best results, apply 3-5 drops to a clean face and neck 1-2 times daily. You can use it in the morning to protect against environmental stressors or at night to support skin renewal. Always follow with your favorite moisturizer and SPF during the day.

Many customers notice a boost in hydration and softness immediately thanks to the Botanical Hyaluronic Acid. With consistent daily use, visible improvements in brightness, even tone, and the fading of dark spots typically appear within 2 to 4 weeks.

Yes! Because our SAP formula is gentle and highly stable, it pairs beautifully with other products. A popular routine is using Vitamin C in the morning and Retinol at night. If layering them together, apply the Vitamin C serum first and let it fully absorb.

No refrigeration is required. Our specific form of Vitamin C is highly stable and resists rapid oxidation much better than traditional acidic formulas. Just keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Yes! Whether you order directly from our website or through our official Amazon storefront, you are receiving the exact same, clinically-tested SAP Vitamin C formula.

Most traditional serums rely on L-ascorbic acid, which is highly acidic, notorious for oxidizing quickly, and often triggers stinging on sensitive skin. Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP) is a highly stable, gentle alternative that mimics your skin’s natural pH. It delivers all the visible brightening benefits—like fading dark spots and boosting collagen—without the burn or compromised barrier.

Yes. Because our SAP formula is much gentler and more stable than harsh L-ascorbic acid, it has excellent "stack-ability." You can confidently incorporate it into your daily skincare routine alongside other active ingredients, including retinol, without causing unnecessary irritation.

Ready to finally love your Vitamin C?

Ditch the burn, the breakouts, and the orange oxidation. Upgrade to the gentle, highly stable SAP formula that respects your skin barrier.
