Introduction
A light emulsion, formula incorporating an acid-free
Vitamin C (tetrahexydecylascorbate - THDCA) that delivers itself to
cellular receptors via an enzymatic cascade that will not irritate the
skin as does pure ascorbic acid when applied topically. The scientific
literature attests to the efficacy of the THDCA metabolites in calming
red blotchy skin and fading out spots and uneven tone. The appearance of
melasma and cholasma can often be significantly reduced as well.
Stimulating optimum skin functions through THDCA helps to reduce
formation of lipofuscin, a waste product that progressively accumulates
in and around skin cells as we age. Deep dermal recovery of elastic
tissue and better quality protein are also reported in the clinical
literature.
Description
Low molecular weight ascorbate ester is the
active ingredient in a base of avocado and jojoba lipids; easily spread,
rapidly penetrating, hydrating, self-preserved in 1.7 ounce amber glass
pump bottle with unit carton and 4 ounce white PET back bar bottle with
pump.
Mechanisms
Very high concentration of vitamin C (non-acid form) leads to immediate,
visible improvement to red blotchy skin through skin receptors that
trigger an anti-inflammatory response. Applications limited to several
times per week will progressively fade pigment spots and smooth texture,
tone and color. Gains in dermal protein have also been observed under
proper dose scheduling so as not to shrink receptor population.
Literature attests to vitamin C helping in skin resistance to sun
damage, especially just prior to sun exposure.
Esthetic Results
Evens out tone, skin smoothing, wrinkle reduction, pigmentation
reduction
Instructions
Apply 2-3 times per week, mornings or
evenings, after cleansing. More frequent application may reduce
benefits.
Precautions

develops, discontinue.
