Red spots with Vitamin C product

Have you experienced red spots while using Vitamin C products? I am diligent about applying sunscreen. Thank you 😊 UPDATE: I alternated with a propolis based serum and my redness went away. Thank you, everyone!

How long have you been using vitamin C and how often do you use it? It could be that your skin hasn't adjusted to the product yet so you could decrease usage frequency. What type of sunscreen (physical/mineral or chemical) do you use? Chemical sunscreen can be irritating to sensitive skin, so if your skin is reacting to the vitamin C, the sensitivity of your skin to chemical sunscreen can be increased.

Thank you so much. I am using it twice for about 1 week now. I will adjust and change my sunscreen.

my dermatologist told me vitamin C can be irritating to the skin so I avoid it.

If the spots are acne, that can happen with vitamin c. However, if they aren't acne you could be having a reaction to the vitamin c or something else in the serum.

no red spots but I put vitamin c over a pimple and it burnt. I won’t be doing that again.
