Garnier Even & Matte Vitamin C Booster Serum 30ml

Garnier Even & Matte Vitamin C Booster Serum is a lightweight brightening serum developed to improve the appearance of dark spots, post-blemish marks, dullness and uneven-looking skin tone.

The formula combines a 3.5% active blend of a vitamin C derivative, niacinamide and salicylic acid. It helps brighten the complexion, improve visible tone unevenness and gently refine skin texture while maintaining a lightweight, fast-absorbing feel. The 3.5% refers to the combined active blend, not 3.5% pure vitamin C.

Garnier Even & Matte Vitamin C Booster Serum is suitable for all skin types. It can be applied in the morning and evening before moisturiser, with broad-spectrum sunscreen used as the final step of the morning routine.

Key ingredients

Vitamin C derivative
3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid is a stabilised form of vitamin C that supports brighter, more radiant and even-looking skin.

Niacinamide
Vitamin B3 helps improve the appearance of uneven tone and supports a smoother, more balanced-looking complexion.

Salicylic acid
A beta hydroxy acid that gently exfoliates built-up surface cells and helps improve uneven texture and post-blemish congestion.

Hyaluronic acid
Sodium hyaluronate helps attract moisture and supports a hydrated, smoother skin feel.

Melas approved because…

It combines three useful brightening and texture-refining ingredients in one affordable daily serum.

The vitamin C derivative and niacinamide make it particularly relevant for dark spots, post-blemish marks and uneven-looking tone.

Salicylic acid adds gentle exfoliating support, helping improve rough or congested-looking texture without requiring a separate exfoliating serum in the same routine.

Its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture also makes it easy to layer beneath moisturiser and sunscreen, although sensitive skin should consider the alcohol and fragrance content.
