Frequently asked questions
Can I use Urea and Vitamin C together?
Yes, and they work even better together. Urea cushions Vitamin C: it hydrates and supports the barrier while the active does its work. That means less irritation and better results.
Which goes first, Urea or Vitamin C?
Apply Vitamin C first, then Urea. The general rule is thinnest to thickest texture, and lowest pH first.
Should I use Urea in the morning or at night?
Urea: works morning or night. Use 5–10% on the face or body daily. Higher strengths can sting on broken or freshly exfoliated skin.
Should I use Vitamin C in the morning or at night?
Vitamin C: best in the morning. Apply in the morning on clean skin before moisturiser and sunscreen. Store it away from light and heat, and throw it out once it turns dark orange.
