The importance of choosing your Vitamin C.
Free-radical damage is one of the leading contributors to aging skin and unfortunately we’re exposed to it every day. UV exposure, pollution, stress, smoking, poor diet, alcohol consumption, even hormonal changes can cause free-radical damage to our cells. The daily use of a topical antioxidant (Vitamin C) will combat this damage and help to keep our skin looking youthful and healthy.
In addition to providing protection from free-radical damage, Vitamin C brightens the skin, evens out tone and texture, and plays a huge role in collagen production.
When choosing an effective Vitamin C product, you want the Vitamin C to be in the form “L-Ascorbic Acid USP.” L-Ascorbic Acid is the form of Vitamin C that is bioavailable to our body – it means our cells can put it right to work and get the maximum benefit from the product.
The “USP” is also an important piece to this puzzle. A USP ingredient certification denotes that the ingredient is 99.9% pure. USP products ensure you’re getting a consistently strong, effective product bottle to bottle. Each Vivier antioxidant serum contains between 8%-12.5% L-Ascorbic Acid USP, depending on which you choose.
Vivier carries several different types of vitamin C that can target your specific skin type. To determine which vitamin C best suits you, come into Jeunesse to talk with us!
