Vitamin C, known as ascorbic acid, is water-soluble and important in the health of our body and our skincare.
It helps maintain the skin's health and youthful appearance, promotes collagen, and protects the skin.
The antioxidants that protect the skin from UV rays and free radicals also help to maintain elasticity, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also helps with hyperpigmentation.
Let’s go over the benefits in more detail.
Powerful antioxidant - will protect skin from free radical damage that can damage skin cells and cause premature aging and wrinkles, and Vitamin C keeps your skin looking youthful.
Hyperpigmentation - is a condition in which patches of skin become darker in colour than the normal surrounding skin. Vitamin C inhibits the production of melanin to help even out the skin tone.
Collagen - gives the skin structure, elasticity, and firmness. As we age, collagen (protein) production decreases, leading to sagging skin and wrinkles.
Hydration - Vitamin C attracts and retains moisture to help the skin stay hydrated and plump, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Inflammation - a common skin concern that can lead to redness, swelling, and discomfort. The anti-inflammatory properties of Vitamin C help those with sensitive or acne-prone skin.
Sun Exposure - Vitamin C may help protect the skin from harmful UV rays when used in combination with a broad-spectrum sunscreen, such as AlumierMD Broad Spectrum Sunscreen, by neutralizing free radicals generated by UV rays.
Secret Faces product recommendation.
Vitamin C product EverActive C&E™ + Peptide
An award-winning, high-strength This product is a high-strength vitamin C and vitamin E serum perfect for revitalizing the skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Vitamin C and E neutralize free radicals. The Vitamin C and MATRIXYL® Synthe'6® strengthen and brighten skin.
There are many vitamin C serums that oxidize in their bottles. This means the vitamin C is no longer providing benefits to your skin. EverActive C&E™ + Peptide stays fresh because you only mix the 15% vitamin C into the serum when you’re ready to use it.
How can you implement EverActive C&E™ + Peptide in your routine?
Always check the product insert for mixing instructions. Apply 3 - 4 drops once daily in the morning after cleansing. Gently massage into face, neck and décolleté in an upward motion. Follow with specialty products and sunscreen.
