Mad Hippie Vitamin C Serum for Face — 1.02 fl oz, Stable SAP Antioxidant & Low‑Irritation Hyaluronic Delivery

Mad Hippie Vitamin C Serum is a gentle, stable antioxidant serum (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate + Vitamin E + Ferulic Acid) designed to brighten skin, support hydration, and minimize irritation.

Formulated for everyday use, this lightweight 1.02 fl oz serum delivers a trio of antioxidants with hyaluronic acid in a non-irritating carrier. Instead of using unstable ascorbic acid, Mad Hippie relies on Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP), a form of vitamin C that resists oxidation and reduces the chance of stinging—making it suitable for sensitive, acne-prone, and combination skin. The product is vegan, cruelty-free, and free from parabens, phthalates, perfumes, dyes, SLS, PEGs and other common irritants.

How does this serum brighten and protect skin?

The formula combines vitamin C with vitamin E and ferulic acid to create complementary antioxidant protection. Together they help even skin tone and protect against everyday environmental stressors while supporting the skin’s natural repair processes.

• Stable Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate provides lasting vitamin C activity without rapid oxidation.
• Vitamin E helps neutralize free radicals and complements C’s effects.
• Ferulic acid boosts antioxidant efficacy and stability of the trio.
• Light, fast-absorbing texture layers easily under moisturizers and sunscreen.

Will this serum irritate sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Clinical testing showed no irritation for participants, reflecting the choice of SAP over more acidic vitamin C forms. The formula is crafted to minimize common irritants while providing antioxidant benefits suitable for reactive skin types.

• 0% irritation reported in clinical testing with the chosen vitamin C form.
• Free of fragrances, dyes, and harsh surfactants that commonly cause sensitivity.
• Non-comedogenic-friendly texture that works with acne-prone routines.
• Patch-test recommended if you have highly reactive skin or are using retinoids.

How should I use this serum in my daily skincare routine?

Apply the serum after cleansing and toning, before heavier creams. Use it once or twice daily depending on your tolerance and pair it with broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning to maximize protective benefits.

• Dispense 2–3 drops onto fingertips and pat onto face and neck.
• Follow with moisturizer and, if daytime, SPF 30+ sunscreen.
• Start with every other day application if combining with strong actives.
• Store upright away from direct heat and light to preserve stability.

What results can I reasonably expect and when?

Users in clinical studies reported brighter, more even-looking skin within weeks. Consistent application supports visible improvements in discoloration and overall skin health, with hydrating benefits from hyaluronic acid for smoother texture.

• Noticeable brightening often seen in 4–8 weeks with regular use.
• Improved skin texture and hydration from hyaluronic acid.
• Reduced appearance of environmental dulling with continued antioxidant use.
• Results vary by individual; consistent application yields best outcome.

Who is this for: Mad Hippie Vitamin C Serum is aimed at people seeking a gentle yet effective antioxidant serum—particularly those with sensitive or acne-prone skin who want brightening and environmental defense without the sting of more acidic vitamin C products. It also fits into clean-beauty routines for shoppers who prioritize vegan, cruelty-free, and low-toxicity formulations. If you use retinoids or exfoliating acids, introduce the serum gradually and consult patch testing to determine the ideal frequency.
