Never Pay $100 For A Serum Again!

February 06, 2019 Simone Geneva

The pursuit of natural beauty really is a crazy game. We drink juices that look like swamp water, spend countless hours at the gym, and splurge on an anti-aging serum that can cost upwards of $100 per ounce regularly. Sound familiar? What’s the deal with that?! Many brands make the case that these prestige/premium prices come from their unique, otherwise-unattainable ingredients list. But, is it impossible to find these active ingredients elsewhere, without losing power? Let’s investigate!

To test our investigation, we decided to choose a Vitamin C+E Serum as our variable. Vitamin C+E serums are extremely popular due to the benefits that Vitamin C + E have on the skin. "Vitamin C and E are essential in collagen synthesis," says Dendy Engelman, a dermatologist at Manhattan Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery. "When a free radical steals an electron from one of the proteins in a strand of collagen, it creates a tiny break in the strand, the more breaks you retain, the more damage you'll see as skin begins to sag and wrinkle. Since vitamin C is an electron donor, it helps reverse and prevent signs of aging. Use it to keep skin firm and youthful and protect yourself from UV rays" Engelman explains.

Vitamin E is also a miracle ingredient for the skin. According to Dr. Stafford Broumand in The Huffington Post, “it has been shown that when combining Vitamin E with Vitamin C, it can act as a natural form of sun protection. Vitamin E oil works to block free radicals from the body, which play a large part in the aging process. If we can fight off free radicals, then we can reduce wrinkles and keep the skin youthful-looking.” Despite featuring many of the same core ingredients, Vitamin C+E serums vary drastically across the price spectrum. Starting at the most expensive, SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic tops the chart at a whopping $114 on TheBeautyPlace, on sale from a staggering $183.

This SkinCeuticals serum lists Vitamin C and E as two of its main active ingredients, which have the aforementioned benefits to the skin.

Next on our list is the Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum, retailing for $80 on Sephora.

Still at a staggering price point, the Drunk Elephant option boasts the same active ingredients as the SkinCeuticals option.

Finally, comes Geneva Naturals Advanced Vitamin C+E Serum, retailing for $27.99.

For less than half of the price of the other option, Geneva Naturals actually gives you more! This Professional Swiss Formula Vitamin C+E Serum features 20% Vitamin C and Edelweiss, a beautiful anti-aging flower that grows in the Swiss Alps. Edelweiss is packed with properties that have anti-inflammatory effects on the skin, with a strong, natural level of UV protection. To sweeten things up even more, all Geneva Naturals products are sulfate and paraben-free, which have been proven to be carcinogens and can often cause skin allergies or exacerbate existing conditions. Yikes!

Geneva Naturals omits all toxic ingredients to deliver the cleanest possible formulas. According to reviews on this Geneva Naturals serum, the ingredients are as powerful as they are pure, and this serum has become a real fan favorite. We feature amazing ingredients, never compromise our quality with toxic ingredients, and get it to you at an affordable price point. We believe in offering the product directly to the consumer, and devote our dollars to making a knockout product. What more could you want?

There you have it! In order to hit a skin care home run, you don’t have to sacrifice price for quality with Geneva Naturals. Always here to keep it real for you, beauties!
