Best-selling skincare line from Avalon Organics, Intense Defense, has undergone a rebrand to capitalise on the massive trend that is vitamin C in skincare; dermatologists’ and skin gurus’ favourite ingredient of 2021. Recommended for everything from dark spots to tightening, brightening to boosting collagen and hydration levels, vitamin C offers many functions in the skin.
Why Vitamin C?
Shopping habits and beauty priorities have changed since the pandemic hit, with a whopping 96% of consumers saying they would rather invest in skincare than make-up, 43% saying that they have simplified their skincare routine during lockdown and consumers buying natural and sustainable brands has risen from 15% pre-pandemic to 32%.
Avalon Organics Vitamin C line ticks all of these boxes: offering consumers the power of vitamin C to invest in their skin health; a simple 3-step skincare regimen; and from a company that chooses to use organic ingredients sourced from sustainable and ethical farming practices.
Since hitting the UK shores this summer, the range has already scooped an award in the prestigious Natural & Organic Products Europe show awards 2021, when the Renewal Creme Riche picked up Best New Organic Beauty Product.
