Unlike direct forms of vitamin C, this easy-to-use serum contains a water-soluble vitamin C derivative that converts into vitamin C once applied, giving it less irritation potential. And because it has advanced antioxidant properties, it also protects skin from the visual effects of damage caused by environmental stressors, helping to maintain a more radiant complexion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNote: In its pure form, vitamin C is unstable in water. Ascorbyl Glucoside is a water-soluble derivative of vitamin C. It is much more stable in water but it is less potent than direct L-Ascorbic Acid. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"content when-to-use\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to use:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"when-to-use-item am\"\u003eUse in AM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"when-to-use-item am\"\u003eUse in PM\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"good-for\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"d-flex align-items-baseline\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"good-for-item\"\u003e6 months after opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"good-for-item\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"a-normal a-spacing-micro\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"a-spacing-small po-skin_type\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base a-text-bold\"\u003eSkin Type\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span9\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base po-break-word\"\u003eAll\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"a-spacing-small po-scent\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base a-text-bold\"\u003eScent\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span9\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base po-break-word\"\u003eUnscented\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"a-spacing-small po-brand\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base a-text-bold\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span9\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base po-break-word\"\u003eTHE ORDINARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"a-spacing-small po-item_form\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base a-text-bold\"\u003eItem Form\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span9\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base po-break-word\"\u003eDrop\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"a-spacing-small po-material_feature\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base a-text-bold\"\u003eMaterial Feature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"a-span9\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-size-base po-break-word\"\u003eAntioxidant\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis formula combines two of the most powerful brightening agents in skincare: pure Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin, both solubilized in a completely water-free formula for ideal stability. Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces signs of aging. Alpha Arbutin is a highly-purified biosynthetic active ingredient that reduces the look of dark spots and uneven skin tone. Notes: Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin are less stable in formulations that contain water and use of them combined in formulations containing water is highly discouraged. This formulation is a water-free, stable solution, and may feel slightly \"oily\" for a few seconds after application, despite the fact that it is completely free of oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"The Ordinary","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45656319099098,"sku":"TOD19452","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/4467\/6314\/files\/ordinary.webp?v=1751495344","url":"https:\/\/www.mtatradinginc.com\/products\/the-ordinary-ascorbic-acid-8-plus-alpha-arbutin-2-30ml-vitamin-c","provider":"MTA TRADING INC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
