Boosts Collagen
This balm is made with a dual vitamin C system—Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate penetrates deeply for collagen and brightening, while Ascorbyl Palmitate evens tone and protects against oxidative stress.
Protects Collagen
A powerful antioxidant that energizes cells, protects against oxidative stress, and supports collagen for firmer, youthful-looking skin.
Slows Signs of Aging
A cutting-edge antioxidant that can neutralize a broad range of free radicals, including those caused by UV exposure. Helps prevent glycation and protect against both immediate and long-term oxidative damage.
Hydrates
Deeply hydrating and elasticity-boosting, it acts like a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin—similar to hyaluronic acid—while repairing and replenishing the skin barrier.
Regenerates
Rich in Vitamin A and Omegas 3, 6, and 9, it supports regeneration, reduces the look of fine lines, and improves skin texture.
Improves Radiance
Packed with carotenoids and rare omega-7, it promotes regeneration, improves tone and texture, and restores a healthy glow.

Can also be used as an overnight repair mask, an eye cream, a lip treatment, a spot treatment for dry or irritated skin, and a massage or gua sha medium.
At Apoterra, our expert herbalists craft purposeful formulations with botanicals that are rooted in traditional herbalism and validated by modern science. Botanicals at peak freshness meet clinically-backed active ingredients at proven concentrations—and the result is revolutionary.
Unlike mass-market brands that rely on highly processed ingredients, we create in-house herbal infusions of whole-plant botanicals within fresh, cold-pressed plant oils. This method preserves the full range of nutrients, delivering real, visible results right to your skin.
The enhanced formula is enriched with an advanced, highly stable form of Vitamin C for stronger brightening and collagen support, Acetyl Zingerone for next-generation antioxidant protection, plus pomegranate sterols and jojoba esters to boost barrier repair and hydration. The result is a more powerful & restorative balm that delivers amplified plumping, radiance, and resilience.
The Vitamin C Regenerative Balm plumps, brightens, and strengthens the skin barrier. It smooths fine lines, fades dark spots, and defends against environmental stressors while providing deep hydration and calming sensitivity.
The Vitamin C Balm contains two advanced forms of Vitamin C, antioxidants CoQ10 and Acetyl Zingerone, pomegranate sterols, jojoba esters, and nourishing butters and oils such as Cupuaçu, Prickly Pear, Rosehips, and Sea Berry, all supporting hydration, regeneration, and skin barrier repair.
The Vitamin C Balm contains nourishing butters and oils like Cupuaçu and Sea Berry that deliver deep hydration and regeneration, soothing winter dryness and helping skin recover after sun exposure for year-round care.
This balm is ideal for all skin types, especially those with dehydrated, compromised skin barrier, sensitive, aging, dull, or irritated skin.
Yes, the Vitamin C Balm absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue, making it suitable for oily skin. If you are especially prone to clogging, try starting with a pea-sized amount and increasing over the course of a few days to make sure your skin is adjusting well.
We do not recommend this balm for acne-prone skin or for those who break out easily, as its rich, nourishing formula may be too heavy during an active breakout. Some customers include it in their post-acne skincare when not actively breaking out, as its healing properties can help reduce the appearance of redness or scars.
Yes, it can be used as a moisturizer or primer, providing hydration and creating a smooth base for makeup application.
For optimal results, apply the balm both morning and night. Use in the morning to create a protective barrier and at night to focus on skin repair.
This product contains beeswax, which is not always considered to be vegan. It is a certified cruelty-free product.
Our Vitamin C Balm is formulated with gentle, non-toxic ingredients like shea butter, sea buckthorn CO₂ extract, rosehip oil, and a stable form of vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate). It also contains a blend of essential oils—including jasmine absolute, turmeric, geranium, and palmarosa—used at concentrations typically considered appropriate for cosmetic use during pregnancy (less than .1%). However, because every pregnancy is unique and individual sensitivities vary, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before using any new skincare products during pregnancy or while nursing.
