What it is
Dermalogica BioLumin-C Night Restore is a nighttime vitamin C serum designed to support brighter, more hydrated-looking skin while you sleep. The brand says it helps repair the skin’s moisture barrier and reverse daytime damage for a healthier glow by morning.
Key ingredients
- Aminopropyl ascorbyl phosphate: a vitamin C derivative that helps support brightness and antioxidant protection.
- Tranexamic acid: helps support a more even-looking tone and reduce the look of visible discoloration.
- Ergothioneine and bioflavonoids: add antioxidant support to help defend skin from everyday stress.
- Pro-Vitamin D complex: supports the skin barrier and helps keep moisture in while the skin is in its overnight repair phase.
- Chlorella and carrot root extract: add skin-supporting hydration and brightness-focused plant-derived ingredients.
How to use
After cleansing and toning, apply 3 to 4 drops evenly over the face and neck before bed. Dermalogica says to keep the serum out of the eyes.
Who should be careful
This formula includes citrus peel oils and limonene, so people who are sensitive to fragrant plant oils or exfoliating acids may want to review the full list. This is general product information, not medical advice.
