Hi there! A dose of vitamin C to wake up your complexion?
Almost everyone wants vitamin C in their routine, but heavy textures can put us off. The YOUNIQUE YOU·NIVERSAL Vitamin C Essence is a lightweight, fast-absorbing serum designed for daily use, morning and night.
On paper, the promise is appealing: a brighter complexion, skin that feels hydrated and nourished, antioxidant protection against pollution and a visible effect on the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
The benefits: what Younique promises
- A brighter complexion: vitamin C helps brighten the skin and fight dullness.
- Hydrated, nourished skin: hyaluronic acid delivers intense hydration, and orange peel extract nourishes and revitalises.
- A helping hand against pollution: thanks to its antioxidant action, the essence helps protect the skin from everyday aggressors.
- Softer-looking fine lines: it visibly reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
- A light texture: fast-absorbing, it fits into morning and evening routines, in a clean, cruelty-free formula with a natural fragrance.
My review of the YOU·NIVERSAL Vitamin C Essence
What I like about the formula is the combination: vitamin C for radiance, hyaluronic acid for hydration and orange peel extract to nourish the skin. A serum that brings together glow and comfort while staying light is a great idea for an everyday routine.
In a clinical trial quoted by Younique, 92% of women found their skin had a healthier glow and looked better hydrated after 4 weeks of use (results vary from person to person). To boost radiance, the brand suggests pairing it with the YOU·NIVERSAL Illuminating Toner.
How to use it for the best result
- Cleanse and tone: your face, for example with the YOU·NIVERSAL Illuminating Toner.
- Dispense: one to two pumps into the palm of your hand or onto a cotton pad.
- Spread: the essence gently over your face, massaging it in.
- Let it absorb: the product sinks completely into the skin.
- Finish: with your favourite Younique moisturiser, morning and night.
My tip: the brand suggests starting with one application a day, then moving up to two, especially if your skin is sensitive. According to the brand, a visible glow is often noticed within a few weeks. And don’t forget your sun cream in the morning.
Why I recommend it
Because it is a simple step that combines radiance and hydration, and slips into a morning routine as easily as an evening one. To complete your ritual, have a look at the YOU·NIVERSAL eye contour cream too. 💜
