Vitamin C?

Should I use a Vitamin C serum if I already use the Garnier Green Labs Pinea-C serum? If so, when should I apply it in my routine? Today I apply a hyaluronic acid serum and then the Garnier product.

Yes, your skin would get an extra anti-oxidant protection if you were to add a vitamin C product in addition to the Garnier serum (it's a good product because of the braod-spectrum sun protection it offers, but it only contains a derivative of vitamin C in a small concentration, so it's not the same as a good vitamin C serum really).

Ideally, you would find a vitamin C serum that you could apply instead of the hyaluronic serum - e.g. smth that contains both hyaluronic acid and /or glycerin and ascorbic acid (aka vitamin C). Here are a few options:
