Description

100% pure L-Ascorbic Acid powder is a powdered form of direct vitamin C that visibly reduces signs of aging by brightening and balancing uneven skin tone and protecting your skin from the effects of damage caused by environmental stressors.

L-Ascorbic acid powder is a natural antioxidant and targets uneven skin tone, signs of aging and dullness

There are different forms of vitamin C in skin care, and L-ascorbic is just one type. They mostly fulfill the same roles on the skin and are only different based on their structure and stability.

The “L” in L-ascorbic refers to the chemical structure of the type of vitamin C,  and how it reacts when exposed to light.  L-ascorbic is a very active form of vitamin C and it is bioavailable, but it can be unstable, and can oxidize if not properly formulated.

Other forms of topical vitamin C may be more stable, but they must be converted to L-ascorbic before they’re of use to the skin.
