Dr. Dennis Gross Vitamin C+Collagen – Reviewed

This post is part of the Dr. Dennis Gross Brand Takeover in April 2021, if you’d like to know more about the brand you can click here or view all posts about the brand here. 

C + Collagen is one of the most effective Vitamin C ranges in the beauty industry. It uses a patented energy complex of complimentary ingredients along with 3-o ethyl ascorbic acid and amino acids to revitalise tired skin, boost collagen production and brighten the skin.

It’s important to note here that collagen applied topically on the skin does not create collagen, it would act as a moisturiser. In this case it’s the Vitamin C that stimulates further collagen production which firms the skin.

The range can be used AM or PM, but because it has huge antioxidant capabilities, I recommend applying in the AM.

C + Collagen Set and Refresh Mist

The C + Collagen Set and Refresh Mist really comes into it’s own in Spring and Summer. It takes away any heat and adds antioxidant protection whilst setting makeup. Using micellar technology, it gets through the makeup to get to the skin, even when you’re wearing a full face. It’s great on holiday before reapplying SPF as a pick me up. The mist is perfect too, it’s fine enough to deposit product but without completely drenching the face.

C + Collagen Biocellulose Sheet Mask

I rarely make time to use a sheet mask, and especially as someone who can be sensitised by Vitamin C I thought the C + Collagen Biocellulose Sheet Mask wouldn’t be for me. But I was wrong, it is one of the best glow giving masks around. It’s sticks down to the skin so you can carry on with your day whilst wearing it, because who has the time to do nothing for 20 minutes right?

C + Collagen Serum

The C+ Serum is the powerhouse product here, the gel formula is the most active and results driven product in the range. This is where you come if you want to see serious results. Of course it has an immediate effect in terms of hydration and radiance but long term, I’ve seen how incredible this product can be at dealing with hyper-pigmentation and brightening the skin.

C + Collagen Eye Cream

The C + Collagen Eye Cream is designed and formulated specifically to brighten and firm the undereye area to address wrinkles and lines. It will help with pigmentation and hydration too but you may prefer the Ferulic and Retinol eye serum if pigmentation is your main concern or the Dew it all eye gel for targeting hydration.

C + Collagen Deep Cream

If you have a dryer skin in need of a nutrient rich, glow giving moisturiser look no further. The C + Collagen Deep Cream is a luxurious, rich texture that envelopes the skin in a nourishing layer of restorative and brightening ingredients and oils to quickly brighten and deeply hydrate. It makes a brilliant base under make up. No primer necessary.

I hope this helped break down the products within the Vitamin C+ Collagen range at Dr. Dennis Gross. I think it’s a brilliant range, particularly if you are looking at boosting radiance, antioxidant protection and boosting your skins collagen production levels!
