How is this different from the Wild Rose 15% Vitamin C Spotless Serum?

This cream is a rich, hydrating day cream for ultra-dry skin, used as the moisturising step. Korres's Wild Rose 15% Vitamin C Spotless Serum is a lightweight, bi-phase treatment used earlier in a routine, before moisturiser, to target dark spots and uneven tone. Both use Korres's Vitamin Super C.
