The ultimate "gold standard" for brightening and environmental defense, designed to "bulletproof" your skin against the stressors of an active coastal lifestyle.

Why We Carry It at Lashiqué: At our Orange County spas, we consider a high-potency Vitamin C serum to be the single most important investment you can make for daytime skin health. We have curated the PCA Skin C&E Advanced as our premier at-home solution for clients who demand the highest level of antioxidant protection. Unlike standard serums, this formula features a stable, anhydrous (waterless) base that ensures the Vitamin C remains potent and effective until the very last drop. It is a cornerstone of the Lashiqué ritual for those looking to reverse sun damage and pollution, ensuring your complexion remains as vibrant and resilient as your professional beauty services.

What It Does

  • Powerful Brightening: Utilizes therapeutic levels of pure L-ascorbic acid to visibly even skin tone and fade stubborn dark spots.

  • Advanced Protection: Combines Vitamins C and E to neutralize free radicals and defend against environmental aging.

  • Youthful Refinement: Stimulates the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for a "Lashiqué-smooth" finish.

  • Soothing Correction: Includes silymarin and hexylresorcinol to calm irritated skin and promote a more uniform, radiant glow.

Who It’s For: This serum is a high-performance necessity for all skin types, especially those concerned with hyperpigmentation, environmental stress, or a loss of vibrancy.

Results You’ll See

With daily use, you will notice a significant improvement in the overall clarity and brightness of your complexion. Dark spots and sun damage appear faded, and the skin takes on a firmer, more resilient texture. The appearance of fine lines is minimized, resulting in a smoother, more youthful-looking canvas that radiates health.

How to Use

In the morning after cleansing and toning, apply a pea-sized amount to the face and neck. You may experience a slight tingling sensation upon application; this is normal and indicates the active ingredients are working. Follow with any additional PCA Skin treatment serums, a moisturizer, and—most importantly—a broad-spectrum SPF to lock in your results.

Key Ingredients

The formula features 20% L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) for maximum brightening and 5% Tocopherol (Vitamin E) for synergistic antioxidant support. It is further enhanced with 1% Hexylresorcinol, a powerful agent that targets hyperpigmentation, and Silymarin, a potent antioxidant derived from milk thistle that calms the skin and provides additional environmental defense.

Pro Tips from Your Esthetician

At Lashiqué, we call this "liquid gold" for our OC clients. For the best absorption, ensure your skin is completely dry before applying, as this waterless formula likes a dry surface. If you’re heading out for a day at the beach or a hike, layering C&E Advanced under your sunscreen actually makes your SPF more effective by cleaning up the free radicals that UV rays manage to sneak through!
