Vitamin C Serum with THDA for Visible Brightening and Firmness

Award-winning. Pharmacist-formulated. Lipid-based.

Transdermal C Serum is a clinical-grade vitamin C serum formulated with tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THDA), a stable, lipid-soluble form of vitamin C designed to support the appearance of firmness, clarity, and even tone.

Formulated with 100% active and functional ingredients and no water or fillers, it delivers vitamin C in a form your skin can actually use.

Why it works

The science of lipid-soluble vitamin C

Most vitamin C serums use water-soluble L-ascorbic acid. It oxidizes fast, and oxidized vitamin C loses its potency, so the serum weakens over time. Your skin's barrier is also lipid-based, so a water-based vitamin C was never built to work with it.

THDA is lipid-soluble. It holds its potency far longer, and because it's oil-based like your skin's own barrier, it works in alignment with it, without the sting of acidic forms.

No unstable actives breaking down before they reach your skin. Just purposeful formulation.

What it does

Benefits

Vitamin C supports collagen and elastin production, helping improve the appearance of firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.

This Vitamin C serum visibly brightens skin and promotes a more even-looking complexion and tone.

Vitamin C helps support the skin’s Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF), improving hydration and barrier function.

As a powerful antioxidant, Vitamin C helps defend against environmental stressors, free radicals, and visible signs of UV-related skin damage.

Regular use of this Vitamin C serum may help reduce the appearance of dark spots, redness, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone.

This Vitamin C serum helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, using tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THDA), a stabilized, lipid-soluble form of Vitamin C built for visible performance.

What's inside

Every ingredient has a job

Every ingredient here earns its place. No fillers, no water padding out the bottle, nothing added just to look good on a label. When you strip all that out, what's left is pure, functional formula, which means more active product in every bottle and a little goes a long way.

Bisabolol

A calming compound known to soothe sensitive skin and reduce the appearance of irritation.

Licorice Root Extract

Helps visibly reduce redness and uneven skin tone while supporting a brighter, more balanced complexion.

Notes from Ben

Vitamin C is one of the most important nutrients for supporting healthy skin, but not all forms of vitamin C behave the same once applied topically.

Many traditional serums rely on water-soluble ascorbic acid. While effective under certain conditions, these formulas can be unstable, prone to oxidation, and often difficult for the skin to tolerate.

My Transdermal C Serum was designed differently.

By using tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THDA), a lipid-soluble form of vitamin C, this formula works in alignment with the skin’s natural lipid structure. This supports improved stability and more effective delivery without the irritation commonly associated with acidic forms.

Equally important is what is not included.

This formula contains no water or unnecessary fillers. It is built entirely around lipid-compatible, functional ingredients designed to support how the skin naturally absorbs and utilizes nutrients.

This is the core philosophy behind Truth Treatments.

We are not trying to force results. We are supporting the skin by delivering nutrients it recognizes and knows how to use.

Questions

FAQ

What is tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THDA) in vitamin C serum?
Tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate (THDA) is a lipid-soluble form of vitamin C used in advanced skincare. Because it is oil-based rather than water-based, it is more stable than L-ascorbic acid and works in alignment with the skin's natural lipid structure, supporting the appearance of brighter, firmer skin without the irritation often linked to acidic vitamin C.
Is lipid-soluble vitamin C better than regular L-ascorbic acid?
Yes. Lipid-soluble vitamin C like THDA resists the rapid oxidation that affects water-based L-ascorbic acid, so it stays stable longer. It is also gentler, which makes it suitable for sensitive skin, while still supporting brightening, collagen, and antioxidant defense. Many people choose it as a lower-irritation alternative to traditional vitamin C.
What does a vitamin C serum do for your skin?
A vitamin C serum is designed to support a brighter, more even-looking complexion. It helps defend skin against environmental stressors and free radicals, supports collagen and elastin, and with regular use helps minimize the appearance of dark spots, fine lines, and uneven tone.
Can you use vitamin C serum on sensitive skin?
Yes. Truth Treatments Transdermal C Serum is formulated for all skin types and uses lipid-soluble THDA, which is designed to absorb without the sting common to low-pH, acidic vitamin C. It also contains bisabolol, a calming ingredient that helps soothe the look of sensitive, reactive skin.
When should you apply vitamin C serum, morning or night?
Vitamin C serum can be used morning and evening. Apply it to freshly cleansed, damp skin, mixing 2 to 3 drops with 2 pumps of Truth Treatments Biomimetic Mineral Mist before massaging in. Morning use pairs well with daytime antioxidant protection, while evening use supports overnight recovery.
