One of the most important ingredients in skincare is Vitamin C.  Research has shown that Vitamin C is amongst the most potent materials in skincare.  Collagen is the substance that gives structure and strength to skin. Simply by growing older, there is a natural reduction of the production of collagen in the body, and this is revealed by the appearance of wrinkles on the skin.  Regular application of Vitamin C will lead to a reduction in the visible appearance of wrinkles.

Most Vitamin C skincare products are not effective, as:

1.       They are either in a water base.  Vitamin C, when mixed with water dissolves and loses its efficacy in a very short period of time.  Hence, such formulations tend to be completely ineffective; OR

2.       They are in an oil base.  Such formulations are only suitable for those with dry skin.

Skinstitut’s Vitamin C is in pure powder form and hence does not suffer from the abovementioned limitations.  In addition, it is at a concentration of 100%, rather than around 15% for the average Vitamin C product.

Key Active Ingredient:

100 % L-Ascorbic Acid Crystals; promotes appearance of collagen, thus reducing the visible appearance of wrinkles and lightens the skin.  Increases the skin’s ability to resist sun damage.
