Do You REALLY Need Vitamin C Serum? | Black Skincare Over 40



Do you REALLY need vitamin C serum (or moisturizer) in your skincare routine? It helps to boost collagen and can help brighten the skin, but do you REALLY need it? And how does it work for Black skin? Thank you to Olay for partnering with me on this video. I had a chance to try out the Olay Regenerist Vitamin C + Peptide24 Hydrating Moisturizer months before it launched and loved it, but had some questions about the ingredients so I have Dr. Markaisa Black, PhD Senior Scientist at Olay to chat with us.
