Dark spots come from a deep skin layer your serum can't reach. Vitamin C from inside gets there through your blood. That's the difference.
Four fresh raspberries at the bottom of the glass. Crush them with a wooden muddler — they release juice loaded with the same anti-aging compounds as acerola. The drink starts deep pink before water even touches it.
One teaspoon of acerola powder. 30× more vitamin C than oranges. Blocks the enzyme that makes dark spots, in the layer creams can't reach.
Cold sparkling water poured over the syrup. The fizz wakes up the colors — the drink turns vibrant coral as it rises through the glass.
A teaspoon of raw honey drizzled over the muddled raspberries. Quiets the inflammation that keeps dark spots stuck. Stirs into a sweet pink syrup at the bottom.
Half a lemon, squeezed in. The acidity helps your body actually absorb the vitamin C — without it, half is lost.
Stir gently — the pink syrup blooms through the glass. Drink within 5 minutes before the vitamin C oxidizes.
Six weeks in, the spots fade. By week 8, foundation goes on differently.
