| and also, if you wear vitamin c and go out/or not... do you have to wear sunscreen, like does it make your face more sensitive? |

| I use Vit C everyday, whether I do out of my house or not. If I am staying in all day, sometimes I turn my house into a little *cave*, with all the curtains closed. If I do this, I don't put on sunscreen... |

I tend not to use Vit C on days that I won't be out in the sun at all. I used to apply it every day but read on the Skinceuticals site that (this is about the C+E that I use): "Once absorbed, can't be washed or rubbed off, remaining protective for up to four days - an excellent addition to suncreens."
So I feel comfortable not putting it on on days that I stay in. |

| I apply vit C every day, home, outside, rain or shine. I guess now it is part of my routine. |

| I use it every day as well - it is a part of my regular routine. I always wear a sunblock over it - not because vit C makes skin more sensitive but because it seems a bit weird to be wearing something that helps get rid of sun damage while not wearing anything to protect your skin from the sun..... |

In short, no, not more sun-sensitive. |

| I put on Vit C every morning. That is interesting that it won't wash off. I usually wash my face when I get up, put on Vitamin C and sunblock then go for a run. When I get home I scrub off the sunblock and sweat and put Vitamin C on again. I guess I'm wasting product. |

Vit. C everyday religiously.  Vit. C does not make you more sun sensitive. Actually, just the opposite. However, you should always use a good sunscreen for protection. |
