Supergoop is expanding its innovative sun care product portfolio with the Daily Dose serum, which was created to make Vitamin C as low-maintenance as possible. While revered as a hero skincare ingredient, Vitamin C is notoriously difficult to work with due to its stability as an ingredient. The first-of-its-kind Vitamin C serum with SPF 40 boasts a lightweight, milky texture and it's contained within an airless pump to shield the ingredients from light damage.
Daily Dose boasts a 14% concentration of Vitamin C, which comes from 10% of a pure, oil- and water-soluble form called ethyl ascorbic acid and 4% Kakadu plum. In development, Supergoop found that Vitamin C and SPF are a synergistic pairing, as Vitamin C helps SPF survive on skin; when applied together, Vitamin C is not exposed to the sun immediately.
