Superoxidant Boost C Serum is a brand new skin care serum from Shaklee, introduced in May 2025. Shaklee has had Radiance C+E serum for years and always innovating to bring new, clinical skin care – so now we have two!
This article features the brand new superoxidant as your skin’s morning multi-vitamin to nourish, protect, and brighten.
We have used Shaklee nutrition, skin care, and personal care products, that are unique and have been so effective for us as a way to get the results we want without all the unwanted ingredients, for over 43 years. If you have any questions or would like to discuss anything you read here on the blog, contact us anytime.
95% of skin aging comes from your environment – including outside environment. Everything your skin is exposed to, including the light from your computer and phone, is a factor.
It’s not only summer and the sun where we need to protect our face. There are many factors that damage or age our skin: all kinds of pollutants in the air, food or drink we consume including alcohol, lack of sleep, stress and even products used on skin.
Shaklee’s newest innovative facial skin care solution is a supercharged multivitamin C serum to boost luminosity, skin health, and resilience. It’s a glow-getting powerhouse for instant brightness, nutrition for the skin, plus antipollution benefits.

Vitamin C and Skin Care
Vitamin C is in many serums, moisturizers, and masks, and there is science behind how it works, and how the brand we partner with used the science to create Superoxidant Boost C Serum.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a powerful antioxidant that supports many of your body’s functions, including skin where it helps to brighten and protect against things like pollution, smoke, blue light and UV rays that cause skin damage and skin aging.
The science looks at oxidative stress to you skin that damages cells that leads to premature aging and dullness in skin (as opposed to skin looking brighter and healthier). Free radicals cause this oxidative stress. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and antioxidants help neutralize free radicals. The other thing that Vitamin C can help with is to support healthy collagen in your skin that supports your skin’s elasticity and reducing fine lines. Last, Vitamin C can help with discoloration in your skin and boost brightening in the skin on your face.
Vitamin C Serums are Not the Same
Vitamin C products are not created equal (same as nutritional supplements), so it is essential important to understand how you can get the results you want without your face being irritated.
First, check which form of vitamin C is used in the serum you are considering. The most powerful and bioavailable forms of Vitamin C are ascorbic acid or L-ascorbic acid on the label. Shaklee uses 3 forms of ascorbic acid – ascorbyl glucoside, THD ascorbate, and glyceryl ascorbate that help reduce skin irritation and also improve the stability of the vitamin C.
Next, let’s look at concentration of Vitamin C in a serum. More doesn’t always mean more benefit to your skin because it can irritate. The sweet spot is between 10 and 20 percent.
Last, you need the Vitamin C to be stable to be effective. Packaging is part of the story and also purity. Once Vitamin C in its pure form of ascorbic acid is exposed to air, light and water, it can easily degrade and lose efficacy. Who wants to throw their skin care money away? The way that Shaklee packages their Vitamin C serums are in single doses and ampules that are sealed off from exposure to light, moisture and air before use. We love the science and the formulations and the packaging that Shaklee so smartly uses so that we can have the most effective products.*
Extra ingredients
The same as Shaklee does with their nutritional formulations, they do with skin care by adding additional nutrients and ingredients that work together with the most active ingredients to help the product work better and deliver even more results.*
For example, Superoxidant Boost C Serum has niacinamide (vitamin B3) to enhances your facial skin’s most outer layer, and the Radiance C+E capsules have vitamin E along with Vitamin C to help neutralize free radicals and protect your skin even better.
If your skin is needing extra protection, Vitamin C serums can be used in the morning and evening. Shaklee’s options would be to use Superoxidant Boost C Serum in the morning to get antioxidant protection all day, and to use Radiance C+E in the evening for skin repair while sleeping.
We love that both serums layer with other skin care products such as toners, moisturizers or other antiaging products. It is recommended to use your C serum after you wash your face and use toner if that’s part of your routine. Then you would apply any additional product after the Vitamin C. If this is your first time using a C serum and have sensitive skin, you can start by using only one form every other day to test how your skin reacts.
Sharing Shaklee Science:
“Superoxidant Boost C Serum is a supercharged multivitamin C serum that boosts luminosity, skin health, and resilience. It is the perfect fusion of 13 antioxidants and essential skin nutrients to nourish, protect, and brighten. What makes our multivitamin C serum special is that it features three forms of vitamin C, THD ascorbate, 3-glyceryl ascorbate, and ascorbyl glucoside, designed to target each of the three layers of skin. Each form is highly bioavailable, ultra-stable, and neutral pH, dosed at an optimized 10% level to boost skin brightness and deliver immediate glow and luminosity, minus the irritation. Superoxidant Boost C Serum also features antipollution benefits with 13 antioxidants that protect your skin against environmental stressors. This supercharged C serum comes in an opaque bottle with a pump; this protects the serum from not only light but also air exposure because the lid never needs to be removed.” ~from Shaklee.com

Shaklee Skin Care: CLEAN + CLINICAL
Shaklee is the most clinically proven wellness company in the world. Better known for natural, effective food supplements backed by science, research and clinical proof, Shaklee puts that same effort into personal and skin care products including anti-agind skin care because what you put ON your body is as important as what you put IN it. Today there are so many chemicals, toxins and additives in our products and we are learning almost daily how it’s a lot healthier to limit exposure to those ingredients.
There are popular skin care brands that offer clinical options, but the products are NOT CLEAN.
There are brands that offer clean skin care but they are not CLINICALLY PROVEN – or guaranteed to work.
It is HARD TO FIND a brand that has it all. Shaklee (in our opinion) is one of those brands. Every product is backed by a 100% money back guarantee (including empty bottle) and over 70 years they have an amazingly low return rate of less than 1/3 of 1%.
HOW TO USE
Apply two pumps to face, neck and decolletage. Use every morning after cleansing and toning, then follow with moisturizer.
For best results, use as the last serum in your routine before moisturizer and SPF protection.
