  • Q: What Vitamin C is used in this product?
    • A: Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate which is a stable, water-soluble form of vitamin C that functions as an antioxidant and is potentially effective for brightening an uneven skin tone. It is a stabilized form of vitamin C. It's ideal in skincare products as it can be stored and packaged more effectively than regular vitamin C – which can be volatile and lose effectiveness upon contact with the atmosphere. This article will help you choose the right form of vitamin C for your skin type!   

 

  • Q: Why did you choose to use Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate rather than Ascorbic Acid, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate or Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphote as the source for Vitamin C?
    • A: All 4 options are very good however we chose Sodium Scorbyl Phosphate as it is the most stable for the best long-term bioavailability to skin. We chose not to use ascorbic acid as it would literally break down in days in a product such as the serum. This great article will educate you on the difference between types of vitamin C, ENJOY!

    • A: MSM is a water-soluble white, odorless, crystalline compound that contains 34% elemental sulfur. Methylsulfonylmethane reduces pain, inflammation, and allergic reactions. It also has wound-healing effects which is why we wanted to be sure to include it in our #1 selling product. 

 

  • Q: Why do you use Hyaluronic acid in your Vitamin C Serum?
    • A: Hyaluronic acid attracts water to the skin for intensive hydration. We use Cassia Angustifolia (Senna) and according to many experts, senna’s ability to mimic naturally occurring hyaluronic acid is safer and outperforms synthetically produced hyaluronic acid.  Major win for Restore Vitamin C Serum
