Vitamin C Serum: Viral Claims Debunked - Can it Really Make You Fair?

• Social media claims about Vitamin C serum making skin fairer are false, according to Dr. Yugal Rajput, a dermatologist.
• Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant protecting skin from pollution and sun, but its serum provides only temporary glow.
• The serum cannot change natural skin tone, which is determined by genes; it offers mild relief from hyperpigmentation.
• For lasting skin health, consume Vitamin C-rich foods as internal health reflects on the skin.
• Use Vitamin C serum with 10-15% concentration on a clean face, followed by moisturizer and essential sunscreen to prevent increased pigmentation.
