If you have shopped around for serums to brighten your skin and make it look healthier, then you know that those same serums come with a high price tag.

I was looking for a Vitamin C Serum a little while ago and I headed over to the Body shop to find that it would cost me $27!!

Now I know that for some that may not seem like a lot, but for this money saving mama it was!

So I decided to do a little research to see what most serums contained and found that it's pretty easy and a lot cheaper to make your own.

Here is what you will need:

:: Start with a dark colored glass bottle. (this will help it last longer) You can snag a 12 pack here or a 6 pack here.

:: %100 vegetable glycerine (this will make your skin super soft!)

:: Vitamin C powder

I also love doing this because I can make a ton of it! This will give you plenty for yourself and you can even make some as gifts!

Your friends will love you for this!!

Directions:

:: Mix 2 tsp of vegetable glycerine and 1 tsp of Vitamin C powder until completely dissolved.

:: Pour your serum into your glass bottle.

:: Apply 2-3 drops onto your skin at night after you have washed off your face.

:: Thoroughly Massage into your skin.

Be sure to keep this in a cool dry place for it to last as long as possible.

This stuff is amazing!! Your skin will look younger and softer! Vitamin C has an natural brightening effect that will get rid of dark spots and it will make your skin glow.
