Why Does My Vitamin C Serum Pill When I Apply It? Have you ever experienced your skincare products balling up or forming tiny clumps on your face? In this helpful video, we’ll explain why your vitamin C serum might be pilling when you apply it. We’ll start by discussing common reasons behind this issue, such as using too much product at once, which prevents proper absorption. We’ll also cover the importance of layering skincare products correctly, including waiting a few seconds between applications to allow each layer to settle. Additionally, we’ll explore how ingredient compatibility plays a role, especially when combining serums with moisturizers or sunscreens containing silicones or heavy oils. These ingredients can create a barrier that causes pilling instead of absorption. We’ll also share tips on how to prepare your skin by regularly exfoliating to remove dead skin buildup, making your serum more effective. Whether you’re a skincare enthusiast or just looking for better results from your products, understanding these factors can help you achieve smoother, more even skin.

[Music] Why does my vitamin C serum peel when I apply it? Imagine your skin as a busy highway with many cars trying to get through. Sometimes your skin care products get stuck or from little balls instead of smoothly absorbing. That’s what pilling is. When you put on your vitamin C serum and it balls up, it’s usually because of a few common reasons. First, if you use too much serum at once, your skin can’t absorb it all, so the excess sticks around and forms those flaky clumps. It’s better to use a small amount, about a P-sized drop, and gently spread it over your face. Second, layering products too quickly can cause issues. If you apply your moisturizer or sunscreen immediately after your vitamin C serum without giving it a moment to soak in, the layers can slide over each other and cause peeling. Waiting about 30 to 60 seconds between steps gives each product time to absorb. Third, the ingredients in your products might not get along well. Vitamin C serums often have a specific pH level to stay stable and effective. If you follow it with a moisturizer or sunscreen that contains silicones or thick oils, these can create a barrier that makes the serum ball up instead of sinking in. It’s a good idea to check the ingredients and choose products that are compatible. Fourth, your skin’s surface might be clogged with dead skin cells. When that happens, the serum can get caught in this layer and from pills. Regular exfoliation with gentle scrubs or chemical exfoliants helps remove this buildup, making it easier for your serum to absorb. To avoid peeling, start with a clean face. Apply a small amount of vitamin C serum. Wait a minute or so, then layer your moisturizer or sunscreen. Also, pick products that work well together, especially avoiding layering silicones or heavy oils right after your serum. This way, your vitamin C can do its job without creating unwanted residue. Remember, patience and proper layering are key. Your skin will thank you for it, and your serum will be able to deliver its antioxidant benefits smoothly and effectively. [Music] [Applause]
