On AlphaGlowGirl, vitamin C face serums currently cost Rs 1,999 and Rs 2,649 for 30ml bottles (prices checked against the live product pages on 1 November 2026). The gap is not random: size, formula form, added ingredients, and packaging all move the price. This guide lists the live prices, explains what changes them, and shows how to compare two serums without overpaying for a label.
Vitamin C serum prices on AlphaGlowGirl
Prices below are the product prices shown on the live product pages on 1 November 2026. Delivery is separate: Rs 220 on orders below Rs 2,999, and free delivery on orders above Rs 2,999. Orders are Cash on Delivery across Pakistan, delivered in 2–4 working days, with a 7-day inspection warranty.
| Serum | Size | Price | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yardco Vitamin C Face Serum with Hyaluronic Acid | 30ml | Rs 2,649 | Brightening plus hydration in a lightweight daily serum. |
| Vitamin C Face Serum – Brightening & Hydrating Skin Care | 30ml | Rs 1,999 | Lightweight, fast-absorbing serum for dull-looking skin. |
Per millilitre, that works out to about Rs 88 per ml for the Yardco serum and about Rs 67 per ml for the Vitamin C Face Serum, since both bottles are 30ml. If two serums come in different sizes, comparing the per-ml price keeps the comparison honest.
What changes the price of a vitamin C serum?
Size. A larger bottle usually costs more in total but less per ml. Always compare the same size, or work out the per-ml price.
Formula form. Vitamin C appears in different forms, from pure L-ascorbic acid to gentler derivatives. Forms differ in stability, feel on skin, and how carefully they must be packaged, and that shows up in the price.
Added ingredients. A serum that also carries hydrators such as hyaluronic acid, as the Yardco serum does, is priced as a two-job product rather than a single-ingredient one.
Packaging. Vitamin C breaks down in light and air, so dark bottles, pumps, and sealed packaging cost more to make but protect the formula longer. A clear bottle at a low price can be poor value if the serum oxidises quickly.
How to compare two vitamin C serums
Use this short checklist before choosing:
- Compare the same size, or the per-ml price, not just the bottle price.
- Read what the formula actually contains, and skip percentages that the product page does not state.
- Match the texture to your skin: a lightweight serum suits oily skin, while drier skin usually prefers a slightly richer base plus moisturizer.
- Check how it layers: vitamin C usually goes on clean skin before moisturizer, with sunscreen in the morning.
- Patch test first, especially if your skin is sensitive or reactive.
How to start a vitamin C serum gently
Patch test first: apply a small amount where your clinician or the label directs, and wait to see how your skin responds before using it on your full face. Start a few times a week, then move to daily use only if your skin stays calm. Use sunscreen every morning while using vitamin C, since sun exposure can undo brightening progress and irritate sensitised skin.
If stinging, redness, or dryness builds, pause the serum and simplify the rest of the routine to a gentle cleanser and moisturizer. For persistent skin problems, see a dermatologist rather than adding more actives.
What results to expect, honestly
Visible change takes weeks of regular use, never overnight and never instantly. With steady use, vitamin C serums help skin look brighter and help visibly soften the look of dark spots over weeks. They do not change your natural skin colour, and they do not remove spots on their own. If nothing has changed after several weeks of correct, regular use, the formula may simply not suit your skin, and a different approach is worth discussing with a dermatologist.
