The Science
Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is one of the most effective cosmeceutical ingredients available however possesses inherent problems with poor stability and thus a very short shelf life. We have been able to formulate a high potency 15% Ascorbic Acid Serum which is not only very effective but also stable long term. The high stability is achieved by avoiding the use of water in the formulation thus preventing oxidation. The Ascorbic Acid is fully dissolved in an oil free carrier so it is non greasy nor grainy which is often the case when oil carriers are used. When it is applied a warm sensation occurs for a few minutes as it is being absorbed.
Lipoic acid, Vitamin E, Vitamin C
