Wild Plum Illumination C Complex 30 ml

The Wild Plum Illuminating C Complex is an intensely hydrating vitamin C serum for skin that looks tired, dry, or uneven. The lightweight formula combines Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate – a stable form of vitamin C – with Kakadu, Illawarra, and Burdekin plum, ferulic acid, hyaluronic acid, and knotweed extract.

Vitamin C and ferulic acid strengthen the skin's antioxidant protection and help reduce the visible effects of oxidative stress and sun exposure. At the same time, vitamin C supports a more even skin tone and is particularly beneficial for pigmentation, a dull complexion, and early signs of premature skin aging.

• Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate & ferulic acid – the stable form of vitamin C has antioxidant properties, supports a more even skin tone, and may reduce the appearance of pigmentation and a dull complexion. Ferulic acid complements protection against free radicals and supports the formula's overall antioxidant activity.
• Kakadu, Illawarra, & Burdekin plum – the Australian wild fruit complex provides a high concentration of antioxidant plant compounds and supports the skin in dealing with oxidative stress. At the same time, it promotes a hydrated, more vital-looking complexion and helps preserve firmness and natural radiance.
• Hyaluronic acid, Sodium PCA & glycerin – three humectants that retain water at the skin's surface and intensely hydrate dehydrated skin. They make fine lines caused by dryness appear less pronounced and support a smoother, plumper, and more supple skin feel.
• Knotweed, sea buckthorn, & rosehip extracts – complement the formula with antioxidants, carotenoids, and skin-conditioning lipids. They are particularly beneficial for sun-exposed, dry, or tired skin and support regeneration, suppleness, and a more even-looking complexion.
  

This is complemented by a bioactive complex of three wild-harvested Australian plums. Kakadu, Illawarra, and Burdekin plums provide an exceptional variety of antioxidant plant compounds and complement the formula with hydrating and skin-protective properties. Hyaluronic acid, Sodium PCA, and glycerin also bind moisture and leave the skin looking plumper, smoother, and fresher.

• Concentrated vitamin C serum for enhanced radiance and a more even skin tone
• ideal for dull, dehydrated, sun-stressed skin and visible pigmentation
• helps protect the skin against oxidative stress and premature signs of aging
• provides intense hydration and leaves skin looking plumper and smoother
• lightweight serum texture with nourishing plant oils—pleasant even under additional skincare products
• for all skin types, especially normal to dry, dehydrated and sun-stressed skin
• with Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, ferulic acid, Australian wild plums, hyaluronic acid and knotweed
• aromatherapeutic fragrance of grapefruit and ylang-ylang; vegan and made in Australia

Sea buckthorn and rosehip oils give the otherwise lightweight serum texture a nourishing quality. The result is a wonderfully balanced active skincare formula: intense enough for dry and sun-stressed skin, yet light enough to be used in a streamlined routine or on oilier skin.

The fragrance is also part of the Wildcrafted ritual: Grapefruit adds freshness and lightness, while ylang-ylang contributes a soft, warm note. The aromatherapeutic composition turns application into a small moment of arrival—fresh, sensual and pleasantly uncomplicated.

Active ingredients

• Plums contain powerful anti-aging ingredients and can improve the body’s own production of collagen and elastin. They also stimulate cell renewal, strengthen the skin barrier, and protect the skin from moisture loss. The high concentration of vitamins A and E helps combat free radicals and thus premature skin aging. 
• Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana fruit extraxt) is also called bush plum and, with 2,300 to 3,150 milligrams of vitamin C per 100 g of fruit pulp, is nature’s richest source of vitamin C. It also contains vitamin E and ferulic acid, making it very rich in antioxidants. The active ingredient also plays a role in the production of the amino acid proline, which in turn produces skin-firming collagen. Thanks to its antimicrobial properties, it can even inhibit and soothe inflammation and redness.
• MAP (Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate) is a bioactive form of vitamin C. MAP acts as a collagen stimulator, enhanced by a phospholipid delivery system that penetrates the deeper layers of the skin. Vitamin C can reduce the appearance of aged skin and wrinkles and increase skin firmness.
• Rose distillate (Rosa Damascena (Rosa) Flower Water) is extracted from rose petals and has soothing, astringent, and cleansing properties. It stimulates blood circulation in the fine capillaries and helps minimize the appearance of scars, micro-wounds, sunburn, and wrinkles. It has a naturally delicate rose fragrance.
• Rosehip seed oil or wild rose oil (Rosa Canina Fruit Oil) is extracted from the fruits of the rose hip and is considered a highly effective plant oil for skin care. The oil is rich in provitamin A, vitamins C and E, minerals, carotenoids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Rosehip oil combats free radicals, promotes skin cell renewal, and helps even out skin tone. The oil promotes collagen production, is well tolerated, and is particularly suitable for dry, flaky skin, hyperpigmentation, and scars. Blemished skin also benefits from its high content of anti-inflammatory linoleic and linolenic acids.
• Hyaluronic acid (Hyaluronic Acid / Sodium Hyaluronate) retains up to 1,000 times its weight in moisture. Topical hyaluronic acid forms a thin, viscoelastic surface film that locks in moisture on the skin’s surface and helps smooth the skin and increase its elasticity. As we age, we lose our natural hyaluronic acid, which is one of the main causes of wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid helps fill in fine lines and wrinkles and plump the skin.
• Sea buckthorn seed oil (Hippophae rhamnoides fruit / seed oil) is an excellent source of vitamin A, which increases cell turnover and promotes the regeneration of skin cells. The concentration of vitamin C in this potent oil provides antioxidant protection, strengthens the collagen in the skin, and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and photoaging.
• Knotweed extract is believed to combat light-induced skin aging. Knotweed can make the skin look tighter, firmer, and more youthful. Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
• Antioxidant-rich ferulic acid occurs naturally in plants and fruits, where it acts as a protective, self-preserving element. Like other antioxidants, ferulic acid is believed to reduce the skin-aging effects of harmful free radicals. Combined with other antioxidant ingredients such as vitamins C and E, it can enhance the activity of these vitamins.

FAQ

What form of vitamin C does the Wild Plum Serum contain?
The serum contains Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, or MAP for short. This is a stable, water-soluble vitamin C derivative with antioxidant properties that supports a more even, radiant complexion. It is less acidic than pure L-ascorbic acid and is therefore often well tolerated by more sensitive skin.

Which skin types is the Wild Plum Illuminating C Complex particularly suitable for?
The serum is particularly pleasant for normal to dry, dehydrated, or sun-exposed skin, as well as for dull complexions and pigmentation. Oily skin can also use it well due to its lightweight texture.

Can I use the vitamin C serum in the morning?
Yes—especially in the morning, antioxidant skincare is beneficial. A suitable sunscreen should always be applied afterward. Vitamin C complements daily UV protection but does not replace it.

Can I combine Wild Plum with the Bakuchiol Serum?
Yes. Wildcrafted Organics expressly recommends this combination. First apply Wild Rose Botanical Mist and Wild Plum Serum, then finish with Bakuchiol Cell Regenerating Serum.

Can I use the serum on its own?
For normal or oilier skin, the moisturizing serum texture may already be sufficient, depending on how it feels on the skin. Dry and lipid-deficient skin generally benefits from applying a facial oil, balm, or cream afterward.

Is the serum suitable for sensitive skin?
Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a comparatively gentle form of vitamin C. However, the serum contains essential oils from grapefruit and ylang-ylang. For highly reactive skin or a known sensitivity to essential oils, we therefore recommend performing a patch test first.
