Active Ingredients
  • Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate (Vitamin C fat soluble derivative) in stabilized and encapsuled form. Stabilized form has more extensive antioxidant action, penetrates more efficiently, does not irritate skin and -unlike traditional Vitamin C- does not oxidize, thus pertaining its full effectiveness. The encapsuled form (cellulose polymers encapsuled with lipophilic oils) allows gradual release, thus rendering the ingredient bioavailable for much longer than the time of its application and therefore providing larger duration in its effect.
  • Anti-Pollution Complex, with osmolytes and aminoacids that protect skin from oxidative stress, contribute to its detox and improve the epidermal barrier.
  • PatchH2O -Natural biopolymers molecular complex, that controllably transfers the hydrating actives to the lower layers of the epidermis, thus ensuring in depth and intensive hydration.
  • Indian cardamom, natural extract rich in vitamins A, C, D and lutein that boosts collagen composition and soothes the appearance of wrinkles, offering glow and even tone.
  • Mineral Sunscreen Filters – Inorganic compounds of mineral origin, such as titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, that reflect & diffuse UV rays like miniscule mirrors, preventing them from penetrating into the deeper layers of the skin.

Apply daily a sufficient amount onto clean skin, face, neck and décolleté. The appropriate amount is 2mg/cm2, about 1/3 teaspoon for face and neck, so as to achieve the protection that corresponds to the SPF. Also suitable for the eye area (except for eye lids). Repeat application before sun exposure, or after perspiring, swimming, or wiping. For visible results in discolorations and signs of aging, we recommend a combined use with Brightening Vit-C Serum and Brightening Vit-C Gel Cream.

What is the percentage of vitamin C in the Brightening Vit-C range?

In general, in a product containing vitamin C, the effectiveness and activity of the product does not depend so much on the concentration (%) of vitamin C, but mainly on its form, which in the Brightening Vit-C range is stabilized. The Brightening Vit-C range contains stabilized vitamin C in all its products, thus ensuring the best penetration, non-irritation and non-oxidation of the products. Also, the selection of all the other ingredients in the products plays a decisive role as the act synergistically with vitamin C, offering the promised results.
