What is SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel?
SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel is a daily-use vitamin C antioxidant in a lightweight gel. It delivers the same actives as the Phloretin CF serum, 10% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), 2% phloretin and 0.5% ferulic acid, using serum-in-gel technology that suspends high concentrations of actives in a smooth, easy-to-spread texture. SkinCeuticals formulates it to neutralize free radicals from UV rays and pollution and to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration and uneven tone. It is recommended for normal, combination and sensitive skin. Apply to a dry face, neck and chest each morning after cleansing, then follow with sunscreen. Available at SkinCrew in 30 ml ($185).

The problem
Not everyone likes a watery vitamin C serum. Drops can run through the fingers, feel sharp on freshly shaved skin, or simply be awkward to apply quickly in the morning. People who want the tone and antioxidant benefits of a pure vitamin C formula often give up on the step because of the texture, even when discoloration and early lines are the things they most want to improve.
The Phloretin CF formula in a gel you pump.
Phloretin CF Gel keeps the 10% vitamin C, 2% phloretin and 0.5% ferulic acid of the original serum and suspends them in a light gel that spreads evenly and stays where you put it. It comes in a pump rather than a dropper, and SkinCeuticals notes it is well tolerated by men after shaving. The result is the same antioxidant step in a format more people will use daily.

SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel: vitamin C and phloretin in a lightweight gel for tone and fine lines
SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel is a daytime antioxidant that combines 10% L-ascorbic acid, 2% phloretin and 0.5% ferulic acid in a gel texture. SkinCeuticals uses serum-in-gel technology to suspend high concentrations of the actives, and formulates the product to neutralize free radicals while improving the appearance of fine lines, discoloration and uneven skin tone.
The gel is free of parabens, dyes and fragrance and is formulated at a precise pH and concentration for absorption. SkinCeuticals recommends it for normal, combination and sensitive skin, and the pump format makes the morning application quick and measured, on the face, neck, chest and the backs of the hands. Available at SkinCrew, an Authorized SkinCeuticals US Retailer, with fast US shipping.

Why Phloretin CF Gel Stands Out
- Serum-in-gel technology. SkinCeuticals suspends high concentrations of vitamin C, phloretin and ferulic acid in a gel, so the actives of a serum arrive in a texture that is easier to control.
- Same actives as Phloretin CF. The gel carries 10% L-ascorbic acid, 2% phloretin and 0.5% ferulic acid, the same percentages as the original Phloretin CF serum.
- A pump instead of a dropper. The gel dispenses by pump, which makes it simple to dose and tidy to travel with.
- Comfortable after shaving. SkinCeuticals states the gel is well tolerated by men after shaving, a time when thinner serums can feel sharp on the skin.

SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel FAQ
What is SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel?
Phloretin CF Gel is a daytime vitamin C antioxidant in a lightweight gel. It contains 10% pure vitamin C, 2% phloretin and 0.5% ferulic acid, and SkinCeuticals formulates it to neutralize free radicals and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration and uneven tone.
What is the difference between Phloretin CF and Phloretin CF Gel?
The actives are the same: 10% L-ascorbic acid, 2% phloretin and 0.5% ferulic acid. The difference is texture and packaging. Phloretin CF is a thin liquid serum in a dropper bottle, recommended for normal, oily and combination skin. Phloretin CF Gel is a light gel in a pump, recommended for normal, combination and sensitive skin.
How do I use Phloretin CF Gel?
Use it once a day in the morning after cleansing and toning. Smooth the gel over a dry face, neck and chest before other skincare products, and follow with sunscreen. SkinCeuticals professional directions call for four to five pumps, and the gel may also be used on the backs of the hands.
Is Phloretin CF Gel good for men?
Yes. SkinCeuticals states that Phloretin CF Gel is well tolerated by men after shaving, and the gel texture and pump make it a fast step in a short morning routine. It suits anyone with normal, combination or sensitive skin.
Can I use Phloretin CF Gel with sunscreen and moisturizer?
Yes, and you should. Apply the gel first on dry skin, then moisturizer if you need it, then a broad-spectrum sunscreen. SkinCeuticals pairs its antioxidants with sunscreen as the two core steps of a morning routine.
Does Phloretin CF Gel change color?
The gel is slightly yellow when first opened and darkens gradually after opening, which SkinCeuticals describes as normal for a pure vitamin C product. The brand recommends using it within three months of opening.
Is SkinCrew an authorized SkinCeuticals retailer in the US?
Yes. SkinCrew is an Authorized SkinCeuticals US Retailer and sources every unit directly from SkinCeuticals, so Phloretin CF Gel arrives fresh, authentic and in current packaging, with fast US shipping.
