Why Our Vitamin C Serum is NOT Like the Others
Share
In a world overflowing with skincare serums that shout “fix your flaws”, we whisper something different: “You’re already enough.”
But we didn’t stop at philosophy — we backed it with science, calm, and care.
So how does Manyataa truly compare with the best-selling serums out there? Let’s dig into it.
| Feature / Brand | Manyataa | Minimalist | Foxtale | Dot & Key | Pilgrim |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin C Type | 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid + Ascorbic Acid | Ethyl Ascorbic Acid only | L-Ascorbic Acid (unstable, irritating) | Triple blend (but exact forms unclear) | 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid only |
| % Claimed / Actual | 10% combined (real and effective) | 10% quoted, ~8.6% effective | 15% pure, but may oxidize | 10%, but diluted in 3 forms | 5% |
| Anti-aging Support | ✔️ Niacinamide, Vitamin E, Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe Vera | ❌ Minimal hydration, no barrier repair agents | ❌ No barrier support or hydration | ✔️ Vitamin E + Hyaluronic, but no soothing base | ❌ Basic, only Vitamin C and hydration |
| Skin Soothing | ✔️ Aloe Vera + Xanthan + Niacinamide | ❌ Not designed for sensitive/aged skin | ❌ No calming agents | ✔️ Some botanicals, but not Aloe | ❌ Minimal calming ingredients |
| Hydration | ✔️ Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid) | ❌ No deep hydrators | ✔️ But may not counteract acid irritation | ✔️ Present | ✔️ Present |
| Target Age Group | Designed for 20 to 50+ skin – dry, sensitive, pigmented, needs repair | Targeted at 20–30s (glow-focused) | Targeted at 20s (radiance-focused) | Broad skin brightening (not age-specific) | Targeted at K-beauty lovers, not by age |
🌞 1. The Vitamin C Dilemma: Potency vs. Irritation
Most popular serums like Foxtale and Minimalist rely on a single type of Vitamin C — either L-Ascorbic Acid (potent but unstable) or Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (stable but mild).
Manyataa combines the best of both:
- Ascorbic Acid for visible brightness
- 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid for long-term stability
✨ Result? Power without the punch. You glow, without the burn.
💧 2. We Don’t Just Brighten — We Repair
While other serums chase instant glow, Manyataa invests in lasting strength.
- Niacinamide to even tone and calm inflammation
- Vitamin E to protect and nourish
- Sodium Hyaluronate to deeply hydrate
- Aloe Vera to soothe the most sensitive skin
Compare that with the minimalist approach of... well, Minimalist. Or the glow-only formula of Foxtale.
🌿 3. Sensitive Skin? We Thought of That Too.
Many serums don’t prioritize sensitive skin. They push actives, leaving your skin red, flaky, or overwhelmed.
At Manyataa, we made sure even reactive skin feels safe, loved, and balanced.
No harsh exfoliants. No alcohol. No silicates. Just clean hydration and glow — minus the drama.
🧴 4. It’s Not Just What’s Inside — It’s What We Believe
Most brands shout: “Look younger.”
We whisper: “Feel seen.”
We’re not anti-ageing. We’re anti-fear.
Whether you’re 22 or 52, Manyataa doesn’t erase your age — it celebrates your skin’s journey.
Because time isn’t your enemy. It’s your story.
✅ The Final Verdict:
