What is it?

Vitamin C is one of the most widely used and studied functional ingredients in cosmetics, both as a synergistic ingredient and in its pure form, thanks to its valuable properties.

Products that contain it must ensure stabilization of the molecule against oxidation, while also overcoming the significant challenge of skin penetration: the most stable formulations are those containing ascorbic acid at a low pH.

What is this for?

Vitamin C is essential for issues such as photoaging, hyperpigmentation, wrinkle formation, dry skin, acne scars, and inflammatory skin lesions. It indeed has a number of important beneficial effects for skin health. Let's go into specifics:

  • Stimulates the synthesis of  collagen
  • Has a function antioxidant
  • Fights  hyperpigmentation.
  • • Improves the   function of the  skin barrier

Debunking a Myth

Is Vitamin C photosensitizing? No, it’s photosensitive! It oxidizes when exposed to light, but this has no harmful effect on our skin when exposed to the sun.

Remember to close the product tightly after use!

Products with Vitamin C

Vitamin C is water-soluble and, in cosmetics, it is primarily chosen to formulate serums and boosters but also creams, toners, and cleansers.
