I have read on another dermatology site that Vitamin C based serums are best used only at night – due to concerns related to sunlight exposure during daytime use, i.e. oxidization and generation of free radicals on the skin.
Considering that Vitamin C can remain in the skin more than a day or longer – it seems this could happen anyway?

Have you come across any research on this – or do you have any thoughts on the topic? Thank you so much!
