Ingredients
Hero ingredients — what each one does and why
Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) — the Vitamin C source. A native Australian superfruit harvested in the Northern Territory. Contains up to 100 times the Vitamin C of an orange. Unlike synthetic L-ascorbic acid, Kakadu plum delivers Vitamin C in a stable, plant-bound form that's gentle on sensitive skin while still brightening, supporting collagen, and protecting against free radicals.
Rosehip oil (Rosa canina). Rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids and natural Vitamin A (provitamin A). Supports skin renewal, helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, and improves overall skin texture and softness.
Turmeric (Curcuma longa). Contains curcumin, a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Calms redness and irritation, supports a clearer complexion, and helps balance skin tone in pigmentation-prone areas.
Davidson plum, Desert lime, Kangaroo apple — SCOUT Signature Super Food Blend. Three native Australian botanicals harvested wild or farmed sustainably. Together they deliver layered antioxidant protection, additional natural Vitamin C, and AHA-style gentle exfoliation.
Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) and gotu kola (Centella asiatica). Sea buckthorn is one of the most omega-rich plants on earth and supports the skin barrier. Gotu kola is a clinically studied botanical that supports collagen production and helps with the appearance of scarring.
Hyaluronic acid (Sodium hyaluronate). Holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water. Pulls moisture into the skin, plumps the surface, and helps the formula glide on smoothly.
Vitamin E (Tocopherol). A fat-soluble antioxidant that works synergistically with Vitamin C — together they neutralise more free radicals than either does alone, and Vitamin E also helps stabilise the formula.
Aloe barbadensis leaf juice.
The base of the serum. Soothes, hydrates, and acts as a gentle delivery vehicle for the actives.

Not just a Vitamin C Serum for brightening skin!
Topical Vitamin C is a science-backed and dermatologically approved ingredient that can help diminish the appearance of dark spots, wrinkles and signs of sun damage and acne.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant which targets free radical damage which means it can inhibit oxidative stress in skin cells. Oxidative stress occurs through environmental stressors such as the sun, diet or pollution. Incorporating a Vitamin C serum can help to protect skin from these influences. When free radicals are present at the cellular level, the skin loses elasticity, tone, texture and wrinkles in skin can appear.
Antioxidants in Vitamin C skincare can help neutralise free radicals, preventing them from harming your complexion.
