About the product
The Ordinary Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%
A vitamin C brightening formula with HA spheres.
Targets: Dullness, signs of ageing, antioxidant support, uneven skin tone
Suitable for: All skin types
Format: Suspension (slightly granular texture)
Key Ingredients: Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Sodium Hyaluronate
Vitamin C Suspension 23% in HA Spheres uses direct vitamin C and hyaluronic acid to help visibly reduce signs of aging by brightening and balancing uneven skin tone. This water-free formula provides 23% pure l-ascorbic acid which remains completely stable due to the absence of water. What’s more, this water-free formula is supported with spheres of hyaluronic acid for added hydration.
Note: The slightly granular texture of this product is due to the vitamin C powder being suspended in an oil-like base and therefore 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.
