This serum pairs Golden Vitamin C with niacinamide and polyglutamic acid, and its shimmer comes from actual crystal powders, quartz, amethyst, and ruby, mixed into the formula. Charlotte Tilbury also builds in a peptide complex it calls Replexium, aimed at softening the look of wrinkles alongside the vitamin C's brightening effect. It's meant to even tone and add a subtle glow rather than act as a straight brightening treatment.
