What Ascorbic Acid Does For The Skin

Ascorbic Acid is the direct-acting form of vitamin C which targets uneven tone, texture, and signs of aging, while also offering antioxidant support.

Ascorbic Acid Under The Microscope
Ascorbic acid, also known as vitamin C, is a powerful antioxidant that helps improve skin texture, even out skin tone, and reduce signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles. While ascorbic acid is the most direct-acting form of vitamin C, it can be unstable in water-based products. To address this, more stable derivatives of vitamin C have been created, or products without water are used to help keep it stable.
