TBS Vitamin C Facial Radiance Capsules Review, Price & Buy Online India

I recently shared my night time skincare routine on Snapchat and many of you wanted me to review The Body Shop Vitamin C Facial Radiance Capsules. My skin is usually combination-oily in summers however due to certain medications it has become very dry and dehydrated. My complexion looks quite dull and I was looking to incorporate products which brighten up my face. I’ve read many a times that topical application of Vit C helps in clearing out dark spots and improves the skin texture. That’s when I decided to gives these Vit C capsules by TBS a try. Read on to know if it’s worth the high price tag.

Packaging
The TBS Vitamin C Radiance Capsules are packaged in a thick glass jar with a screw on cap. The jar comes packaged in an orange box which mentions all the necessary details like product claims, usage, date of expiry etc. The product is sealed in an orange capsule which needs to be broken from the neck. The first time I tried it out, the capsule popped and the product went straight into my eyes, so yeah be a bit careful while doing that.

Texture
The Body Shop Vitamin C Capsules are pale yellow in color and have a light citrus scent. I’m not a huge fan of such fragrance but the scent of the capsules is light and dissipates upon application hence it does not bother me. The texture is extremely light weight and feels almost like a serum. One capsule is enough to cover the full face but not the neck. Vit C capsules should be applied at night as they can cause photo-sensitivity. I usually cleanse my face with Avene Cleanance Gel, follow it up with a toner and then apply the Vit C capsule.

Earlier, I was using it everyday but I had to limit the usage to every alternate day as it made my skin a bit sensitive and irritated. Hence people with sensitive skin should avoid Vitamin C products. It can also be a bit drying so I follow it up with a facial oil or a heavy duty night cream. The Body Shop Vitamin C Capsules show result from the first day itself. My skin looked brighter the very next morning. I have been using it for more than a month now and it has made my skin softer and looks more healthy. The dullness has been reduced greatly and since I use it every other day, it lasts longer and doesn’t feel so expensive.

Benefits of Vitamin C Application On Skin

Topical application of Vitamin C aka L-ascorbic acid provides amazing benefits as it is an antioxidant hence protects the skin from free radicals that lead to premature ageing. It helps reduce dark spots, melanin production and boosts collagen production leading to a healthy youthful skin. Using Vitamic C on the skin also helps increase the effectiveness of sunscreens.

The Body Shop Vitamin C Facial Radiance Capsules have made my skin look so much better. However, if you find it a bit too expensive then you can try Cipla Vitamin C Serum instead which is a little more affordable.

HBM Rating: The Body Shop Vitamin C Radiance Capsules are a great night time treatment which makes the skin brighter. Regular usage helps improve the texture of the skin and removes dullness. The price is definitely on the higher side but most Vitamin C capsules cost alot. If you’re suffering from dull skin then I highly recommend it.

  • U can make ur very own vit c serum by buying vit c tablet and it costs only 20-30 bucks girl

    • Yes, you're absolutely right. However there are many good reasons why one should never DIY it. Firstly, finding the right carrier for it is tricky and no water isn't suitable as VIT C recrystallizes so it is not absorbed by the skin. Secondly, it needs to be at a certain acidic PH level for proper penetration into the skin. Most of the DIY serums end up drying out your skin terribly due to this.
