RoC® has been revolutionizing skincare since 1957 when Dr. Jean-Charles Lissarrague, a French pharmacist at the Rogé Cavaillès pharmacy, created the first hypoallergenic skincare formulations. This was the first of many collaborations with dermatologists to provide them with safe and effective products for their patients. Dr. Lissarrague believed in innovative skincare solutions, based on science, to help women look and feel their best at every age.

You’ll also find a few flavonoids in RoC Vitamin C Serum, such as troxerutin and polygonum aviculare extract (Elix-IR). Overall, we think that RoC Vitamin C Serum is an innovative vitamin C that combines stable 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid with peptides and flavonoids to help brighten the complexion, fade dark spots, and reduce signs of aging. Troxerutin is a flavonoid ingredient that’s extracted from the Japanese plant Sophora japonica that functions as an antioxidant, meaning it protects skin from free radical damage.

Reviews

By inhibiting Cathepsin G, a unique enzyme involved in photoaging and thus modulating the origin of sun-induced MMP production, Elix-IR protects the skin from global sun damage (UV and Infrared).

Vitamin C also helps fade dark spots, evens out skin tone, and increases radiance by preventing melanin synthesis. We like this antioxidant-rich serum because it contains sea kale extract, a marine extract that supports the skin’s defenses against external stressors. Another 1-star review says, “I think this is a straight rip off :/ it wasn’t doing anything for my skin and the orange smell was super intense – so I looked at the ingredients…. it’s basically water, glycerin, and a cheaper solvent. The Cerave Vitamin C Serum is a little bit cheaper but has wayyyyy more quality ingredients, vitamin C being the 2nd instead of the 4th or 5th lol I think I’ll give that one a try next instead.” Our Verdict Why are we committed to this rigorous approach?
