WHY VITAMIN C?
Vitamin C is one of the most favourite vitamins for dermatologists and for a reason! Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, which reduces the impact of free radicals causing oxidative stress that our skin faces every day such as pollution. These free radicals damage our skin and cause premature aging. Vitamin C is mainly used in skin care to clarify and even skin tone, reduce pigmentation, as an anti-age ingredient and to reduce imperfections (pimples, acne).
We use Ecocert certified vitamin C stabilized form, ascorbyl glucoside, which is much gentler to your skin compared to other L-ascorbic acid forms. Ascorbyl glucoside is the best performing vitamin C form in clinical studies that has all three properties common to vitamin C: antioxidant and protection of free radicals, increase in collagen production, decrease in pigmentation. Unlike oil-soluble ascorbyl palmitate in case it was found in in-vitro studies that it may be even harmful in case contact with sun UVB rays occurs and which did not change to pure vitamin C when in contact with skin (did not rise the concentration of pure vitamin C in skin), in-vitro studies have found that ascorbyl glucoside is absorbed via skin and changes to pure vitamin C – the good properties come from here.
VITAMIN C
- is a strong antioxidant that protects our skin from signs of premature aging
- reduces fine lines and wrinkles
- is essential for collagen production
- reduces skin imperfections (acne)
- reduces pigmentation
- evens and brightens skin tone
Product´s content of derivative of vitamin C is 15% that gives the product its powerful properties.
Vitamin C facial serum is suitable for all skin types for young and mature skin for daily use. The serum is ideal for 25+ skin care and for skin with imperfections. The product is oil-free and does not clog pores.
Apply a thin layer of product (press pump 1-2 times) to face and cleavage in the mornings and evenings after cleaning your face. As the serum includes hyaluronic acid, we recommend patting some water gently to your face after using the serum to get the maximum effect! Use vitamin C moisturizing day and night cream after serum for best results. The serum includes also sugar molecules and right after applying the serum you may feel that your skin is a bit sticky – this is normal and goes away once the serum has been fully absorbed usually in less than a minute.
You can use the serum in everyday skin care or as courses. Vitamin C serums are especially popular after summer when there are signs of pigmentation and changes in skin tone caused by sun´s UV.
Use sun protection when spending time in the sun.
Vitamin C collection includes also vitamin C moisturizing day, eye and night cream with Estonian nettle extract – all clinically and dermatologically tested and developed in cooperation with Tallinn University.
Store the bottle in an upright position. If the bottle has been on its side during travel, wait 5 minutes before using the cream. The airless bottle works optimally when stored upright.
- brightened pigmentation
- softened the superficial wrinkles under the eyes
- while using the serum, the facial skin was cleaner and there were fewer pimples than usual
- reduced milia, or small white skin cysts

A really long-waited product. I also try to avoid oils because of pimples and such water-based products are really nice. It looks like a lot of work has been put into the product. Very seldom you can see such thought-out and tested products. 🙂 Nice pleasant scent, I am not a big fan of essential oils. People like different scents so good that the product is unscented. Moisturizes really well, some time after the serum has been used the skin is really soft. Perhaps I should try using it without cream as it seems that the serum is already very efficient. First bottle in use, hopefully fresh signs of pimples will be reduced. But definitely a really nice product and a positive surprise! Thank you!

I am really satisfied with this serum! Results could be seen practically straight away. In the morning my skin was toned. I use it once per day in the evenings. My skin type is combination skin. The serum is absorbed straight away, and does not leave an unpleasant feeling on the skin. I have used only the serum, with creme and also with dry self-tan oil.

I am using my first bottle and I am thrilled about this serum! Already in the first days I felt how my dry and lifeless skin after winter has come bright. :)I use it in the morning and in the evenings after washing my face. As I don´t have any problems with pimples or grease, I used a more “oily” cream about 10 minutes after applying the serum. PS! I have also used it on my husband and it suits him well. He also has more dry skin.

It looks like I will keep ordering this vitamin C serum. It is too early to talk about results but it is really nice to use it.
Kirsti –
Product absorbs really well. I like that it is unscented. In the beginning I was afraid of the price, but it is definitely worth it!
Anne Ta –
Unfortunately this serum did not suit me as I got pimples after using it a couple of times. In addition, it felt a bit sticky after using it, which I don’t like about serums. My skin is more dry.
M. –
Very well absorbed product. I am extremely satisfied. Makes me feel fresh and my skin is clear.
Triin –
Today the first bottle has finished up after one month of regular use.
My skin is much brighter and looks nice. My dark spots under my eyes have disappeared. My quite strong pigmentation spots on the nose and cheeks have practically disappeared or can be noticed very slightly. I also used to have very problematic acne that now has disappeared.
Currently I am just disappointed that I didn’t have a new bottle waiting.

Super product. I am using my first bottle and I am already sure this won’t be the last one! My skin is more bright, fine wrinkles cannot be noticed like before. Easy to apply. 🙂
Liisi –
I am quite satisfied with the serum. My skin really feels softer after 2 weeks of use. I have combination skin and can use this in every part of my skin. After the sauna I also use moisturizing cream. You only have to press the pump carefully!
Karin Noorkõiv –
A really efficient serum. My pores have significantly been reduced, skin tone evened and overall, my skin looks brighter. After already 1 week of using it showed a nice surprise. I suggest 100%. Compared to other vitamin C serums, Nõgel´s serum advantage is its natural ingredients that stimulate the skin to do the job. All the other consumer goods serums have negatively affected my skin’s natural balance.
In addition, it is really nice that it is from Estonia and long-term tests have also been done – very trustworthy!
Kati –
Really like it. Ordered to try and my husband also started to use.
Maiken –
First I was a bit startled as the serum is very watery and let the skin a bit sticky. This sticky feeling went away fast and after 1 week of use my skin is much more bright and even. In addition my skin feels more in tone and looks younger. It even looks like the dark spots under my eyes have disappeared. Yesterday morning I looked into the mirror and decided it is very okay to leave home without make-up.

I have used the serum for 3 weeks. I have very dry skin, which is sensitive to the environment. Dry spots come to my face after harsch cold.
After applying the serum, the first thing I noticed was the pleasant scent. I feel the tonising effect on the skin straight after applying. You need to get used to it as the same feeling comes when I wash my dry face. But my skin has a nice bright look now. I will definitely continue using it to see if this serum really suits me and what is the maximum effect that I would be able to achieve. I also would like to thank the team, who developed that serum. I always have natural products as a priority 🙂 If you want to pick on something, it is the package. The serum is packaged into a separate package. It would be nice if you have a chance to select whether you want to have the serum only or with the package. Anyway the information about the product is online so you don’t need it separately. :)Thank you.

First it was unusual how I should use it as the consistency is watery, but I got used to it quite quickly. The effect was seen quickly. I am 51 and my skin is not even anymore so this serum evened my skin tone really well – pigmentation spots got brighter and red spots in my face disappeared. It also made my skin very soft.

I have used the serum in the evenings and I noticed the positive effect already in the first morning, my skin was brighter and more even. In the beginning the slight sticky feeling after applying was a bit disturbing but this went away after a short time. I have combination skin and this serum has not caused pimples.
In addition I like that this serum contains the more stable vitamin C derivative (there are vitamin C serums that may not even give you any effect as they use unstable vitamin C derivatives that inactivate with light and air). I like that the bottle is airless and also protected from light.
Just ordered some more and will also give it to my mother as a present, who has not yet tried it because of the price.

At first the consistency was a bit unusual. It was so watery and I definitely had to spray it on the palm of my hand. I use it in the morning as the only moisturizer, after serum I don’t use any cream. After the serum I apply some water on my skin and the skin is left pleasant and soft. 🙂
heli –
Serum is absorbed well and suits my slightly pigmented skin very well. My skin is more bright and my skin tone more even.
heli_s –
I really like this product. In the morning my skin is bright and well moisturized, face looks bright even after a short night’s sleep. The content is light and unscented. Will definitely order more! I have used it together with cream but next time I will definitely try to use it only as serum.
katrin.varik –
The first bottle ended. The effect of the serum appeared during the first weeks, my skin tone changed to more bright and even. It also seems that my pores have been reduced. I used it together with cream, otherwise it felt like my skin was a bit torn. The watery consistency is a bit annoying as it makes applying the product a bit difficult. With the first bottle I didn’t get used to it so I wouldn´t drop any serum. As you cannot see how much serum is left, it was a bit of a surprise when it ended. Will definitely buy a new one. Interested to see how it works with my pigmentation spots that I get during the summer.

Very satisfied and can recommend it.
