Description
A high concentration Vitamin C serum to brighten the skin and minimize the appearance of fine lines. Regular use helps to maintain healthier skin and stave off visible signs of ageing.
Active Ingredients
- Vitamin C
- Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate
Vitamin C enhances the mRNA level of collagens I and III, their processing enzymes and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase 1 in the human dermis. Vitamin C also scavenges and destroys reactive oxidizing agents and other free radicals that cause cell damage and ageing. It can thus provide important protection against damage induced by ultraviolet radiation.
Magnesium-ascorbyl-phosphate is oil soluble and able to penetrate the stratum corneum where it is hydrolyzed by phosphatases in the skin to Vitamin C. In addition, magnesium-ascorbyl-phosphate also inhibits the transfer of melanin pigment from melanocytes to the skin cells, resulting in a brighter, smoother skin.
