ELEMIS Dynamic Resurfacing Super-C Serum
At $145 for a month's worth of daily use, this is an investment; comparable clinical vitamin C serums range from $60–$200, so you're in the upper-middle zone for efficacy claims and brand heritage.

A serious serum for the antioxidant-curious—at luxury pricing.
This is ELEMIS's answer to the vitamin C serum everyone's been asking for—a formula that promises brightness without the grittiness or irritation.
Vitamin C serums are notoriously finicky: they oxidize easily, can sting like hell, and often leave skin sticky. ELEMIS's Dynamic Resurfacing Super-C pairs ascorbic acid with Radiance actives and Tri-Enzyme technology to theoretically deliver the glow without the drama.
What we looked at
- 01Formula & Texture 30 mL non-greasy serum
The serum is explicitly non-greasy, which matters—vitamin C formulas can sometimes feel heavy or leave a residue that doesn't play well under makeup or SPF. Two to three pumps covers face, neck, and décolletage, so the 30 mL bottle should last a reasonable stint if you're using it twice daily.
- 02Intended Effects Targets pigmentation, pores, dullness, texture
The formula is positioned as a multi-tasking daily serum, not a weekly treatment or exfoliating mask. It's meant to work alongside your existing moisturizer as a regular step, morning and evening. The Tri-Enzyme tech is the differentiator here—it's supposed to refine without physical scrubbing.
- 03Positioning & Price $145 for 30 mL
This is luxury-tier pricing in the vitamin C category. You're paying for the ELEMIS name, the enzyme blend, and presumably clinical backing. It's not drugstore, it's not mid-tier dermatology—it's prestige skincare.
