Vitamin C facial serum includes high stability Ecocert certified vitamin C, ascorbyl glucoside. It is much more gentle to your skin compared to other forms of L-ascorbic acid used in (natural) cosmetics. Strong antioxidants, natural plant extracts, tamarind fruit seed polysaccharide and hyaluronic acid help to diminish fine lines and protect your skin from premature aging. Our vitamin C serum helps to lighten dark spots and pigmentation by brightening skin complexion and offering plenty of immediate and long-term moisturizing.

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
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 include pore clogging ingredients.
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.
SWISS CLINIC SKIN ROLLER for face and body with interchangeable heads – dermatologically tested
Microneedling is a revolutionary skincare technique that, through controlled micro-injuries, triggers your body’s natural wound-healing response. This includes increased production of collagen and elastin, targeting fine lines and enhancing firmness for smoother, more resilient skin.
By promoting collagen production and activating your skin’s natural healing process, this innovative technique effectively reduces the appearance of scars and minimizes pore size.
By creating microscopic channels in the skin, microneedling allows your serums to penetrate up to 300% deeper, maximizing their effectiveness. The result? Transformative skin care that targets concerns at their source, beyond the surface level.
The recommended period for microneedling is 2 months. After 2 months it is recommended to change the needle heads. See more in detail “How to use the skin roller”
It is easiest to use the skin roller in the evenings.
Use the skin roller once a day in the evenings for 3-5 days. Let the skin rest and recover for 3-5 days.Then start again from the beginning with the treatment. Repeat this cycle for 2 months. Then rest for at least 1 month. When starting a new 2-month treatment, change to a new needle head to secure sharp and fresh needles.
You can also use the same skin roller for body when buying needle head for body 0,5 mm from our web store. It is also possible to buy smaller needle heads for face, 0,2 mm. You can find all needle heads from our web store.

A truly long-awaited product. I also try to avoid oils because they cause breakouts, so a water-based product like this is really lovely. It feels like a lot of effort went into creating it; you rarely see products that are so thoroughly thought out and tested. It has a pleasant scent—I’m not a huge fan of essential oils myself, and since everyone has different preferences, it’s great that it was kept natural. It’s incredibly hydrating; for a while after applying the serum, my skin feels as smooth as a baby’s bottom 😀 I might even try skipping the moisturizer, as the serum alone seems to do the job. I’m only on my first bottle, but I’m hoping it will help fade fresh acne marks. In any case, it’s a really lovely product and a pleasant surprise! Thank you!
Irina –
I am extremely pleased with this serum! I started noticing results almost immediately. By morning, my skin feels toned. I use it once a day, in the evening. I have combination skin. The serum absorbs completely and doesn’t leave an unpleasant residue on the skin. I have used it on its own, combined with a moisturizer, and alongside a self-tanning dry oil.
Karin –
I’m currently using my first bottle and am absolutely thrilled with this serum! Within just a few days, I noticed my skin—which had become dry and dull over the winter—starting to glow 🙂 I use it both morning and evening after cleansing my face. It leaves my skin feeling wonderfully hydrated, and deeply so. Since I don’t struggle with breakouts or excess oiliness, about 10 minutes after applying the Nõgel serum, I follow up with my usual, slightly richer moisturizer. P.S. I’ve also been using it on my husband’s face in the mornings, and it works really well for him too; he also tends to have dry skin.
Varje –
It looks like I’ll keep ordering this Vitamin C serum. It’s too early to talk about results, but it’s pleasant to use.
Ülle –
The product absorbs very well. I also like that it is fragrance-free. I was a bit wary of the price at first, but it is worth it.
Kirsti –
A product that absorbs very well. I am extremely satisfied. It leaves a fresh feeling, and my skin is clearer.

Unfortunately, the serum didn’t work for me; it caused breakouts after just a couple of uses. It also left a sticky residue on the skin, which I don’t like in a serum. I have dry skin.
Anne Ta –
I finished the first bottle today—after a month of daily use.
My skin looks much more radiant and lovely. My dark under-eye circles have vanished. The rather pronounced pigmentation spots on my nose and cheeks have almost disappeared or are barely visible. I used to struggle with severe acne, but that, too, is gone now.
The product smells wonderful, and it feels great on my skin after application. At first, the slightly sticky sensation as it dried bothered me a little, but I realized that’s just a sign the product has been properly worked into the skin.
Right now, I’m disappointed that I didn’t have a spare bottle on hand, and I’m impatiently waiting for the new one to arrive.
Kristi –
A great product. I’m using my first bottle and am already certain it won’t be the last. My skin looks more radiant, and fine lines are less noticeable. Easy to apply 🙂

I am quite happy with the serum. After two weeks of use, my skin really does feel smoother. I have combination skin, and I can use this serum on all areas of my face. However, I do use a face cream as well after a sauna session. You just have to be careful when pumping it out!
Liisi –
This is a highly effective serum.
My pores have visibly tightened, my complexion has evened out, and my skin has a lovely, radiant glow. I was pleasantly surprised by the results after just one week of use. I recommend it 100%. Compared to other Vitamin C serums, the advantage of the Nõgel serum is its natural formula, which stimulates the skin to function optimally on its own; other mass-market serums I’ve used in the past tended to negatively affect my skin’s natural balance.
It is also a great bonus that it is an Estonian product backed by extensive research—it’s truly trustworthy!
Karin Noorkõiv –
I really like it. I ordered it to try out, and my spouse started using it too.
Katrin –
I have been using the serum for about three weeks. I have very dry skin that is also highly sensitive to environmental factors; harsh cold weather causes dry patches to form.
When applying the serum, the first thing I notice is its pleasant scent. Immediately after application, I feel a tightening sensation on my skin. It takes a little getting used to, as I experience a similar feeling after washing my face due to my dry skin. However, my skin has developed a lovely, natural glow. I will definitely continue using the serum to see if it is truly the right fit for me and to discover the best results it can deliver. I also want to thank the team that developed this serum; natural products always hold a special place in my heart. 🙂 If I had to find a fault, it would be with the packaging. The product came in two boxes. It would be great to have the option of choosing whether to include that smaller inner box or simply ship the product in one box with protective packing material to keep it safe. Product information is available online anyway, so there is no need to print it out. 🙂 Thank you.

At first, the application took a little getting used to—it was somewhat runny (now the serum has an pdated texture for many years and is not runny anymore) —but I quickly got the hang of it. The results showed up quite fast. I am 51 years old and my skin tone is no longer even, but this serum really evened out my complexion—pigmentation spots lightened and red marks on my face disappeared. Plus, it made my face feel very soft.

I have been using the serum in the evenings and noticed a positive effect after just the first morning; my skin looked more radiant and even-toned. At first, the fact that the serum left my skin feeling sticky bothered me, but that sensation disappears on its own shortly after application. I have combination skin, and this serum hasn’t caused any breakouts.
I also like that it contains a stable form of Vitamin C (there are Vitamin C serums that may not be effective at all because they use unstable forms of the vitamin that quickly lose their potency when exposed to light and air). I appreciate that the bottle is air- and light-proof.
I just ordered more and plan to give some to my mother, who hasn’t tried it yet due to the high price.

At first, the serum’s consistency took some getting used to—it was so runny that I definitely had to use my palm to apply it (the serum texture has been updated many years ago).
I use it as my sole moisturizer in the morning; I don’t apply a cream afterwards. I just dab a little water over it, and my skin feels lovely and soft 🙂
Maris Lokk –
It absorbs well and suits my skin—which is prone to pigmentation—very well. My face looks clearer and has a more even complexion.
Heli –
I really like this product. My skin looks radiant and hydrated in the morning, and my face looks fresh even after a night of little sleep. It has a lightweight formula and is fragrance-free. I will definitely order it again! I’ve been using it alongside a cream, but I’ll certainly try using the next bottle on its own.
katrin.varik –
I finished the first bottle. The serum’s effects became apparent within the first few weeks: my complexion became more radiant and even, and my pores seemed smaller. I used it in combination with a moisturizer, as my skin felt tight otherwise. One downside is the product’s very runny consistency, which makes application awkward; I hadn’t quite mastered applying it without dripping any by the time I finished the first bottle. Since there is no way to gauge how much serum is left, it ran out unexpectedly. I will definitely buy another bottle. I am curious to see how it handles the pigmentation spots that usually appear in the summer.
