Brightening Exfoliating Treatment
Liquid Gold + Vitamin C
Rated 4.9 out of 5 stars
202 Reviews
Reveal your brightest skin yet with the cult 5% Glycolic Acid exfoliating treatment clinically proven to increase luminosity, improve elasticity and even tone and texture - now supercharged with Vitamin C.
Where does it go in my routine? At night, after cleansing. Layering products on top of Liquid Gold + Vitamin C will buffer its efficacy, but you can apply moisturiser and/or face oil on top if you prefer.
How often should I use it? 3 alternate nights a week (e.g. Monday, Wednesday and Friday).
How much do I need? Saturate a cotton pad with 1-2ml per use, or dispense the equivalent amount in the palm of your hand.
Where should I apply it? Liquid Gold + Vitamin C can be used on the face, neck, décolletage and body skin.
What else? Exfoliation beginners or those worried about sensitivity can dampen their cotton pad with water before use for a gentler Liquid Gold + Vitamin C application.
We recommend using Liquid Gold with Vitamin C on alternating evenings up to 3 times per week.
After cleansing, saturate a cotton pad and sweep over face, neck and décolletage, avoiding the eyes and delicate areas. Alternatively, dispense product into palms and press directly over the skin.
Leave product to work on its own - layering with other products will buffer the efficacy of the treatment. You can continue to use your Vitamin C Serum in the morning alongside this treatment for amplified results.

A Powerful Partnership
Two high-performance ingredients expertly unite in one unique formula for maximum efficacy with minimal irritation.
Stabilised Vitamin C
Ethyl Ascorbic Acid brightens dullness and inhibits excess melanin production to reduce the look of pigmentation, while protecting against the #1 cause of premature skin ageing: UV and free radical damage.
Glycolic Acid
Smooths uneven tone and texture, boosts skin's plumping Collagen and dissolves the glue-like bonds holding dead cells on the skin's surface to clear the way for enhanced Vitamin C absorption.
Unique Low-pH Formula
Just like the original Liquid Gold, Liquid Gold + Vitamin C’s low-pH formula of 2.8-3.0 ensures optimal absorption for maximum efficacy with minimal irritation.
Key Benefits
One-Step Routine
Apply after cleansing and leave to work its magic while you sleep; no other products needed.
Easy & Effective
Simply use 3 nights a week for visible results in 21 days.
#1 Best Seller, Boosted

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that helps protect your skin daily from oxidative stress and the damaging effects of UV exposure. Think of Liquid Gold + Vitamin C as your nighttime boost of Vitamin C. For best results, continue to apply your Vitamin C Serum each morning before your SPF.
-
Liquid Gold + Vitamin C’s skin brightening formulation delivers the same benefits as the original Liquid Gold, with an added boost of Vitamin C and native Australian Tazman Pepper to further target uneven skin tone and improve radiance.
-
Yes! Whether you’re new to exfoliation or a long-time Liquid Gold user, apply Liquid Gold + Vitamin C as directed, three alternate evenings a week.
-
You can switch from Liquid Gold to Liquid Gold + Vitamin C anytime. Simply apply it in the same manner as your original Liquid Gold. We recommend finishing your current bottle before starting a new one.
-
We recommend using either Liquid Gold or Liquid Gold + Vitamin C so you can identify which formula works best for you. This also ensures you use your products within the recommended PAO (period after opening).
If you wish to use both in your routine, rotate between Liquid Gold and Liquid Gold + Vitamin C on your three exfoliating nights a week.
-
As the Glycolic Acid in Liquid Gold + Vitamin C gets to work exfoliating and resurfacing your skin, you may feel a slight tingle. This is completely normal. Not feeling a tingle is also common and does not affect product efficacy.
If you experience any burning or stinging, stop use and contact hello@alpha-h.com for personalised advice.
-
Liquid Gold + Vitamin C contains Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, a stable, yet effective form of Vitamin C most skin types can tolerate, including blemish-prone skin. If you feel you have slightly sensitive skin, dampen your cotton pad with water before dispensing Liquid Gold + Vitamin C. This will dilute the treatment and minimise any risk of irritation.
-
Liquid Gold + Vitamin C is pregnancy and breastfeeding-friendly.
-
For maximum exfoliating efficacy, we recommend leaving Liquid Gold +Vitamin C to work uninterrupted overnight. Simply cleanse your skin with a gentle non-stripping cleanser, swipe the product gently over face, neck and decolletage, and you’re done! You can follow with a moisturiser or face oil if you prefer.
-
Yes, you can. We recommend cycling your active products with at least 1-2 days’ downtime in between as follows:
Night 1: Apply Liquid Gold + Vitamin C.
Night 2: Apply your Retinol serum.
Nights 3 and 4: Apply a non-exfoliating serum, moisturiser or face oil.
Night 5: Begin the cycle again!

Liquid gold is my favourite product and by far my favourite step in my facial routine. This is the first time using the vitamin C version and I can't believe how it makes my skin glow even more. The only let down is the smell. I can smell it on my skin all day.

I was sceptical using this product without any moisturiser afterwards as my skin can get a bit dry but wow. It tingles for about 10mins, feels dry for a bit but when you wake up in the morning your skin is so soft and silky.
