PRODUCT INFORMATION

Thoughtfully designed with Vitamin C, this formula delivers brightening and antioxidant protection while prioritizing skin health. Backed by Ferulic Acid, Coenzyme Q10, and Pentavitin®, it enhances Vitamin C’s efficacy while shielding against environmental stressors, strengthening the skin barrier, and providing lasting hydration. Suitable for both new and regular Vitamin C users, this carefully balanced blend ensures a more radiant, even-toned, and nourished complexion—without irritation.

Do’s

  • Use in the Morning: Vitamin C helps protect against environmental damage, making it ideal for daytime use.
  • Follow with Sunscreen: Always apply broad-spectrum SPF after using Vitamin C to enhance protection and prevent oxidation.
  • Store Properly: Keep the jar/tube tightly closed, away from direct sunlight and heat to maintain potency.
  • Layer Smartly: It pairs well with niacinamide, peptides, and hyaluronic acid.
  • Be Consistent: Daily use can improve brightness, reduce pigmentation, and even out skin tone.

Don’t

  • Don’t Mix with Strong Acids or Retinol in the Same Routine: This can increase irritation and reduce effectiveness.
  • Don’t Use on Broken or Irritated Skin: Let skin calm before introducing active-rich products.
  • Don’t Expect Overnight Results: Skin brightening and texture improvement take consistent use over weeks.
  • Don’t Ignore Oxidation Signs: If the cream turns noticeably darker (brown/orange), it may have oxidized and should be replaced.

Got questions?

Yes, it’s completely safe to use. Over time, the Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (the stable form of Vitamin C) in the moisturizer may cause a gradual shift in colour due to exposure to air and light. Initially, the product is pale white, but as it continues to work, the colour may change to pale yellow or amber shade.

As long as the product hasn’t darkened to a brown or deep, overly intense colour, it remains effective. We recommend storing your moisturizer in a cool, dry place and keeping the cap tightly closed to minimize light and air exposure, which helps maintain the product's quality over time.

Perfect Moisturizer for Smooth, Non-Oily Skin

I’ve been using this moisturizer for a few days now and I absolutely love it. It makes my skin feel soft and smooth without any oiliness. I also tried it under makeup, and it works really well—no greasiness, no patchiness. My skin looked fresh and well-prepped all day. Highly recommend!

PHD ne sach mein honest skincare banaya hai

Maine abhi PHD ka Vitamin C Moisturizer try kiya, and honestly, first impression kaafi acha laga. Texture bilkul non-sticky hai, light gel jaisa feel hota hai — perfect for summers. Ingredients clearly mention kiye gaye hain, which I really liked. Sab kuch clearly explain kiya gaya hai, koi hidden cheez nahi. Fragrance-free hai, easily absorb ho jata hai, aur lagane ke baad halki si healthy glow dikhti hai. Ab long-term effect dekhna baaki hai, but ab tak ke liye – full marks.

Fragrance-free and feels light

Tried the PHD Vitamin C Brightening Moisturizer. Texture is nice, absorbs well, and no fragrance — which I really like. Slightly sticky at first but blends in smoothly. Worth trying if you're into dermatologist-made skincare.

No Fluff, Just Results – Loved It!

This brand says no fluff, just results – so I had to try it. PhD, short for Proven Honest Derma, is made by dermas from USA, UK and India. The packaging is minimal and premium. It’s fragrance free and approved by four global dermatologists. It has Vitamin C, Pentavitin, fluoric acid and coenzyme Q10 – all of which made my skin glowing, hydrated and more even. If you want effective skincare that actually works, definitely try PhD.
