Vitamin C Suspension 23 Ha Spheres 2

Vitamin C Suspension 23 Ha Spheres 2

Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2% Heavy Serum Suspension Very High High 10-20 secs.

(Water-free suspension, tube format) This format is a suspension of very fine L-Ascorbic Acid powder and, as such, provides the most direct exposure of extremely high concentrations of Vitamin C topically. With such format, there are 2 important things to consider: 1) A very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to such high exposure is elevated; 2) The powder exposure to the skin disallows the formula to feel like a serum, lotion or cream and each application requires a few seconds to feel absorbed by the skin. If desired, this formula can be diluted in a cream base per application to allow the skin to build tolerance over time. This formula feels gritty on the skin for a few seconds. If this feeling is not desirable, we would suggest

Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone Heavy Serum with Smooth Finish Suspension Very High High 10-20 secs.

Much like our Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2% formula, this product also offers a suspension but in light silicones for a smooth, non-gritty skin finish. Despite the very light forms of silicones used, silicones do impair dermal exposure to Vitamin C slightly but the additional (30%) concentration of Vitamin C helps compensate for this slight inefficiency. A very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to such high exposure is elevated. If desired, this formula can be diluted in a cream base per application to allow the skin to build tolerance over time.

100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder Light Powder Powder Very High High 10-20 secs

(Fine 325 Mesh Topical Powder) The 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder visibly targets the appearance of uneven skin tone, dullness, and signs of aging and is formulated to be mixed with other treatments (except those containing Niacinamide or EUK 134). The format of this formula is a very fine, anhydrous, L-Ascorbic Acid powder and, as such, provides the most direct exposure of extremely high concentrations of Vitamin C topically. With such format, a very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to such high exposure is elevated. To ensure freshness and to prevent any oxidation, it is preferable to immediately use after mixing especially when mixed with water-based products. For maximum benefit from peptides and LAA individually, please alternate use between the two and avoid mixing the LAA powder with peptide-based products. The quantity of powder can be adjusted based on tolerance. We recommend using between a quarter to half a scoop mixed in with 5-10 drops of serum or a pea-dime size of emulsion based products.

Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2% Light Oil Anyhydrous Solution Moderate Moderate 10-20 secs.

(Anhydrous serum, dropper format) The Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2% formula combines two of the most powerful brightening agents in skincare: pure Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin, both solubilized in a completely water-free formula for ideal stability. Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces signs of aging. Alpha Arbutin is a highly-purified biosynthetic active ingredient that reduces the look of dark spots and uneven skin tone. Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin are less stable in formulations that contain water and use of them combined in formulations containing water is highly discouraged. That is why this formulation is a water-free, stable solution to avoid any contraindications. This product may feel slightly "oily" for a few seconds after application, despite the fact that it is completely free of oil.

Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12% Light Serum Solution High Low 1-5 secs.

(Water-based serum, dropper format) Ascorbyl Glucoside is a water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C. It is much more stable in water but it is less potent than direct L-Ascorbic Acid. Being more compatible with water allows for a very pleasant serum texture. It is considered a gold standard of Vitamin C derivatives due to its high stability and comfortable use, but it's impossible to achieve extremely high L-Ascorbic Acid potency with this solution. Aside from the general benefits of pure Vitamin C, Ascorbyl Glucoside has been shown to offer specific skin brightening benefits.

Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate 10% Light Cream Emulsion Moderate Very Low 5-10 secs.

(Water-based cream, tube format) Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) is a water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C. It is more stable in water but it is less potent than direct L-Ascorbic Acid. It is compatible with water but higher concentrations cannot be offered in a low-viscosity serum format and often require emulsification to form a lotion or a cream. This formula is a light cream that offers 10% pure MAP (very high solubilized concentration). Aside from the general benefits of pure Vitamin C, MAP has been shown to offer specific skin brightening benefits, more so than other derivatives of Vitamin C. (Note: some brands offer "powder" formulations that offer up to 15% MAP. Such powders would offer less direct availability of MAP as compared to an emulsion such as this formula which has solubilized the complete 10% concentration of MAP. It is extremely difficult to solubilize higher concentrations of MAP in non-powder formulations.)

Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F Light Oil Solution High Very Low 1-5 secs.

(Water-free, silicone-free serum, dropper format) Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate is an oil-soluble derivative of Vitamin C that can be used in higher concentrations without drawbacks. It is one of the most stable derivatives of Vitamin C but, being a derivative, its potency will not be directly comparable to pure L-Ascorbic Acid. It is provided in this oil-format formula in combination with Vitamin F, also known as essential fatty acids. Aside from the general benefits of pure Vitamin C, Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmiate has been shown to offer specific skin brightening benefits.

Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution Light Oil Anyhydrous Solution High Very Low 10-20 secs.

(Anhydrous serum, dropper format) The Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution is an exceptionally-stable solution Ethylated Ascorbic Acid. This water-free formula offers a direct-acting approach to achieving a radiant, healthy-looking skin tone. Unlike other Vitamin C derivatives, this ethylated form acts directly like Vitamin C, is closer in molecular weight to actual Vitamin C which allows for faster visible results, and offers a much better stability profile than any known direct-acting form of Vitamin C. Since this formulation is a water-free solution, it may feel slightly "oily" for a few seconds after application, despite the absence of all oils.
