Also known as ascorbic acid, vitamin C is the gold-standard ingredient for brighter, more even-toned skin. Since it neutralizes free radicals from pollution and UV rays&mdash;which can break down the collagen in your skin and cause wrinkles&mdash;vitamin C does some serious work when it comes to anti-aging your complexion.&nbsp;<\/p><p>However, I&rsquo;m currently not loyal to any specific brand of vitamin C&mdash;and my past experience has taught me that some serums work better than others. Hence I&rsquo;m always on the hunt for my holy-grail brightening formula. To narrow down my search, I&rsquo;ve asked eight dermatologists which vitamin C serums they recommend for stellar results. Below, check out their top picks that are both effective <em>and<\/em> budget-friendly (they&rsquo;re all under $100).&nbsp;<\/p><div id=\"doctorCTA_shortcode\" style=\"text-align:center;\"><div style=\"color: rgba(0,0,0,.5);margin-bottom:10px;\"><small>Interested in skin care?<\/small><\/div><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realself.com\/drsearch?keyword=skin+care\" style=\"padding: 15px;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 1.75rem;width: 300px;max-width: 100%;\">Find Doctors Near You<\/a><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-paula-s-choice-resist-c15-super-booster-49\"><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paulaschoice.com\/c15-super-booster\/777.html\" target=\"_blank\">Paula&rsquo;s Choice Resist C15 Super Booster<\/a> ($49)<\/strong><\/h2><p><em>&ldquo;Despite a lower concentration of vitamin C than [in] other serums on the market, this one uses a stabilized formula with ferulic acid to improve uneven skin tone and brighten a dull complexion.

The vitamin C in Monat&rsquo;s serum comes from the Kakadu plum complex, containing a blend of water- and oil-soluble derivatives of vitamin C. This blend leads to a potent product that is very quickly absorbed into the skin and is perfect to layer under your sunscreen. It also contains ferulic acid as an [additional] antioxidant, niacinamide as an anti-inflammatory agent, and hyaluronic acid [as a moisturizer].
