Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%

Brighten, plump, and smooth your skin with this high-performing pure Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid in a creamy lotion.

WHY IT’S SPECIAL

This highly-potent creamy serum delivers a concentrated blend of vitamin C and hyaluronic acid to tackle uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, and signs of ageing.

Featuring the superstar ingredient, Ascorbic Acid centres the formula with powerful anti-ageing and antioxidant properties that protect your skin from premature ageing especially from sun damage which causes loss in collagen – leading to wrinkles and fine lines – and an over-production of melanin in your skin’s attempt to protect itself against UV rays, which shows up as a dark spot.

With its impressive brightening benefits, you can expect this suspension to deliver a serious glow to your skin, and at the same time lightening spots and protecting you from the sun.

To further amp up the benefits within this formula, The Ordinary includes Sodium Hyaluronate to go hand in hand as a hydrating powerhouse to ensure you wake up every day to quenched, plump, luminous, and healthier skin.

Suitable for: Most skin types. Sensitive skin types may explore Vitamin C derivatives for a gentler approach.

Feels like: A lightly-gritty cream.

pH Level: N/A

HOW TO USE

• After water-based treatments and before heavier creams, apply a pea-sized amount across face and neck.

• This product is a suspension of Vitamin C powder in a water-free base, and therefore may take a few seconds to absorb into the skin.

• Due to the high exposure of pure Vitamin C, there may be a slight tingling sensation during the first 1-2 weeks of use until skin builds tolerance. To help reduce the sensation, this formula may be diluted in a serum or cream per application. 

GOOD TO KNOW

• Due to the high exposure of fine Vitamin C powder, the product may feel gritty for a few seconds after application.  If you prefer a smoother application, you may explore Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone or 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder.

• Always conduct a patch test before use on unbroken skin.

• Should any irritation occur, stop use immediately and consult your local physician.

• Keep out of reach from children.
