TOPICAL-C

Experts agree that vitamin C is one of the best ingredients to use in your skincare routine. But it’s also very volatile (unstable when exposed to air or water), which means it can lose its skin-improving benefits before it’s even made it to your face. Unlike traditional vitamin C serums, creams, and oils (which can degrade quickly), our powdered TOPICAL-C doesn’t activate until you mix it with your chosen cream or serum. Keeping its powerful potency.

Our skin is exposed to daily aggressors that accelerate the aging process, with 80% of visible aging caused by UV rays alone (which is why wearing an SPF is so important). The sun’s ultraviolet rays trigger the release of cell-DNA-damaging free radicals, which rapidly degrade the collagen and elastin fibers that act as scaffolding for firm skin. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, meaning it neutralizes these unstable molecules.

Fine lines and wrinkles occur when the skin’s connective tissue (collagen and elastin fibers) are broken down, and the subsequent loss of volume causes the skin to contract and wrinkle. The hero ingredient in TOPICAL-C is boosted by a second antioxidant: ferulic acid, which increases its stability and doubles the natural photoprotection of the skin. Protecting your collagen reserves and boosting new collagen production is an essential step in your skincare routine to achieve plump, youthful-looking skin.
