Vitamin C Serum

Description

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

• Cleanse face, neck and décolletage area, or just the pigmented area.
• Apply a few drops of serum directly onto the cleansed areas using the dropper.
• Gently message in an upwards direction until completely absorbed in your skin.
• Warning: This serum should be used in the morning before moisturiser (must have SPF30 min). Do not use in conjunction with certain AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) as they deconstruct Vitamin C. YR Day Cream is formulated to boost the properties of this serum.

BENEFITS

• Wheat Amino Acids: It imparts adequate hydration to skin. It enhances the texture of the skin making it healthy and radiant.
• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate: (SAP, for short) is a stable, water-soluble form of vitamin C made from combining ascorbic acid with a phosphate and a salt, compounds which work with enzymes in skin to cleave (split) the ingredient and release pure ascorbic acid, which is the most researched form of vitamin C.
• Levulinic Acid: Conditions and softens skin. It acts as a mild preservative with good antibacterial properties without altering the structure and pH of other ingredients in the product.
• Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit (Bilberry) Extract:
  • Natural extract that comes from bilberry (a dark berry similar to blueberries)

  • It removes bacteria and dead skin build up on the skin, repairing damage caused by free radicals and preventing new blemishes and wrinkles from forming.

Important Information: Vitamin C serum will lose its efficacy once oxidized (when opened), the product does not become harmful to the skin until it’s expiration date, approximately one year after manufacturing. For best results, we recommend using your Vitamin C serum within 3 to 6 months of purchase, when it is fresh and most effective. Look after your Vitamin C by storing it in a cool, dark space, such as the fridge, which can help shelter it from oxidation.
