Please note that while my products do contain a preservative, it is best to use natural products as soon as they are purchased. I do not add chemicals to maintain a smooth appearance over time. Temperature changes can cause ingredients like allantoin to crystallize. Therefore, it is recommended to use the products within 6 months if unopened, and within 1 to 2 months after opening.

One of the most stable forms of vitamin C. Vitamin C is especially useful in the appearance of anti-wrinkle and skin brightening, and its performance in these two arenas can be enhanced by coupling with SODIUM LACTATE which is also in the formula. This combination has been shown to dramatically increase brighter radiant skin.

The added benefit is the delivery enhancement that you get with an encapsulation because the phospholipid used to encapsulate the active is a much smaller molecule that can penetrate the top, dead, layer of skin and deliver the active to the tissues where you can gain the benefits of the Vitamin C rather than having them reside in the dead layers until they are eliminated.

Vitamin C Actives are one of the best ingredients that we can use for anti-oxidant products, keeping in mind that Vitamin C is highly oxidative. While there are ways to formulate with Vitamin C, minimizing oxidation to keep it safe for cosmetics use, it is very challenging and failure to effectively stabilize Vitamin C will result in an unstable product that will be unstable and create free radicals. With the Liposome Vitamin C (Liposomal Encapsulated Vitamin C) that I use which is stabilized and the oxidation is no longer an issue. The added benefit is the delivery enhancement that you get with an encapsulation because the phospholipid used to encapsulate the active is a much smaller molecule that can penetrate the top, dead, layer of skin and deliver the active to the tissues where you can gain the benefits of the Vitamin C rather than having them reside in the dead layers until they are eliminated.
