15% Vitamin C + EGF Serum

Dull, tired-looking skin usually needs two things: an antioxidant to brighten and something to firm. The INKEY List 15% Vitamin C + EGF Serum packs both into one lightweight gel — a 15% vitamin C derivative for glow, plus a plant-derived EGF peptide to tighten how skin looks.

What it actually does

• Brightens dull skin. 15% ascorbyl glucoside — a stable vitamin C form — acts as a potent antioxidant to lift the look of dullness and target hyperpigmentation.
• Tightens with plant-based EGF. 1% Epitensive™, a plant-derived Epidermal Growth Factor system, works on how firm skin appears.
• Strong but not harsh. The brand describes it as powerful yet gentle, leaving skin looking brighter and firmer with each use.
• Trial-backed, per The INKEY List: in a 4-week consumer trial of 64 people, 87% agreed skin looked brighter, 87% saw visible improvement in tone and texture, and 84% agreed skin looked healthier and less dull.
• Vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free, in recyclable packaging.

How to use

1. Apply a pea-sized amount to face and neck, morning and evening.
2. Follow with your moisturiser; in the morning, finish with SPF.
3. The brand suggests prioritising the AM slot to make the most of its antioxidant protection.

Routine note: don't combine it with retinol, AHAs (glycolic, lactic, mandelic) or BHAs in the same routine. Run vitamin C in the morning and your retinol or acids at night.

Questions

What is EGF, exactly?

EGF stands for Epidermal Growth Factor. Here it comes from Epitensive™, a plant-derived peptide system included at 1% to make skin look tighter and firmer — it's the rejuvenation half of this serum's brightening-plus-firming pairing.

Morning or evening?

The directions allow both, but the brand's tip is to use it in the morning so the antioxidant vitamin C earns its keep during the day — with your sunscreen on top.
