Ferulic acid is widely used in skincare because it helps defend skin against daily environmental stress. Below, you get the answer to the most common question: Is ferulic acid an antioxidant?, and how to use it in a simple routine.

Yes, ferulic acid is a plant-derived antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals created by UV light and pollution. In other words, it supports your skin’s natural defense system against oxidative stress. Developed by Plastic surgeon Javad Sajan, you can use this vegan formula to wake your skin and prepare for makeup application. 

Benefits of Using Our Ferulic Acid

Some of the benefits of choosing ferulic acid include:

How to use it

  • When: Most people apply a ferulic-containing antioxidant serum in the morning after cleansing, then follow with moisturizer and broad-spectrum sunscreen.
  • How often: Start once daily and increase as tolerated. If you also use retinol, many prefer ferulic in the AM and retinol at night.
  • Who can use it: Generally suitable for most skin types. If you’re sensitive or reactive, patch-test first and introduce gradually.

Ferulic acid, used consistently in the morning under moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF, helps neutralize free radicals from UV and pollution, supports a more even-looking tone, and softens the look of fine lines over time. Our vegan formula, developed by plastic surgeon Dr. Javad Sajan, layers smoothly and preps skin beautifully for makeup.

If you’re new to antioxidants, start once daily and patch-test if you’re sensitive. Pair with vitamin C in the AM and keep retinol for night. With steady use, you’ll build a simple, effective defense against everyday environmental stress.
