C.E.O. Glow Vitamin C + Turmeric Face Oil
Reviewed by SerumTruth Editorial · Updated July 2026
A pleasant vitamin C face oil for the appearance of a dewy, brighter-looking finish, built on the stable THD ascorbate ester rather than the sharp acid form. The derivative carries a thinner evidence record than pure vitamin C and the level is undisclosed, so it earns its place on feel and glow more than on proven potency. An easy oil to like at a prestige price.

What’s inside
| Active | Disclosed | Dose |
|---|---|---|
| Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate | n/a | Studied |
A glow-focused face oil led by tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, the oil-soluble, more stable vitamin C ester, with turmeric and cold-pressed oils, in a tinted orange-glass dropper bottle. The oil phase suits the ester form of vitamin C, which is gentler and less pH-fussy than L-ascorbic acid. The percentage is not disclosed, and it is a single vitamin C ester rather than a full antioxidant network, so read it as a radiance-and-comfort layer.
How it’s delivered
Air- and light-sensitive actives (vitamin C, copper peptides) lose potency fast in the wrong packaging, so delivery and the bottle are scored, not just what’s on the label.
