Marini Skin Solutions - C-Esta Face Serum

Marini Skin Solutions C-ESTA Face Serum is a liquid anti-aging treatment built around DAE Complex, which pairs a lipid-soluble form of vitamin C with DMAE. It is one of the longest-standing formulations in medical-grade skincare and remains distinctive for what it does beyond brightening.

The DMAE component is why patients describe a firming, lifting effect on facial contours rather than tone improvement alone. Combined with vitamin C for antioxidant defense and collagen support, the serum works on brightness, firmness, and resilience together.

With continued use, skin becomes brighter, firmer, and more resilient. Deeper lines appear less pronounced, tone evens, and the complexion looks noticeably healthier. It absorbs readily and is compatible with glycolic acid products, tretinoin, other topical medications, moisturizers, and makeup.

1. Cleanse and dry your skin.
2. Pump a small amount into your palm and apply sparingly across the whole face.
3. Press in and allow it to absorb before layering.
4. Use morning and evening, or once daily if you prefer.
5. In the morning, follow with moisturizer and a broad spectrum sunscreen.

A little goes a long way. Over-application is the most common reason patients find it tacky.

DAE Complex: the proprietary core of the formula, combining a lipid-soluble form of vitamin C with DMAE for antioxidant defense and a firming effect on the look of facial contours.

Lipid-Soluble Vitamin C: penetrates well and does not require the low pH that makes L-ascorbic acid sting.

DMAE: associated with an immediate and cumulative firming appearance in facial contours.

Compatible with glycolic acid products, tretinoin, other topical medications, moisturizers, and makeup.

C-ESTA has been in medical practices for decades, which in a field driven by novelty says something. The DMAE component is what patients notice: a firming quality that most vitamin C serums do not deliver.

Our providers recommend it for patients whose primary concern is the look of firmness and contour rather than pigment. If pigment is your main issue, a dedicated brightening serum or a low-pH vitamin C will get you further.

One practical advantage is compatibility. Many actives conflict; this one layers with tretinoin, glycolic acid, and most topical medications without issue, which simplifies a complicated routine. You can order this here without an appointment, and we ship nationwide.
