Vitamin C+E & Ferulic Acid Serum
Sweden's answer to the SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic at a fraction of the price. Indy Beauty runs the gold-standard antioxidant trio — vitamin C + vitamin E + ferulic acid — using sodium ascorbyl phosphate (a stable vitamin C derivative that won't oxidise in the bottle) instead of L-ascorbic acid. Licorice root extract (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) adds a proven brightening co-active. Sodium hyaluronate delivers hydration. Fragrance-free, vegan, made in Sweden, and priced at SEK 249 — roughly a quarter of what the SkinCeuticals original costs. The stable vitamin C form means it won't turn orange or sting, but the trade-off is lower peak potency than 15-20% L-ascorbic acid formulas.
Indy Beauty Triple Action Moisturizer
Indy Beauty's vitamin-rich Swedish daily face cream — niacinamide + vitamin E + HA in the affordable Swedish drugstore-positioned brand.
