Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Like other types of vitamin C, this ingredient has many benefits including reducing wrinkles, skin soothing, dark spot fading, and fighting against free radicals.
3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid interferes with the process of skin darkening, helping to reduce hyperpigmentation. It also encourages the skin to produce more collagen.
Once applied, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is converted to Vitamin C deeper in the skin's layers. This process is slow but makes this ingredient more tolerable for skin.
The optimum pH range for this ingredient is 4 - 5.5

serum yg cukup works di kulitku yg sering banget kusam. aku pakai sekitar sebulanan dan hasilnya cukup ok ya untuk mencerahkan. kalo utk memudarkan dark spot aku rasa belum ada perubahan yg signifikan. nggak bikin kulitku makin kering. teksturnya lumayan cair jd cepet meresapnya, cuman memang baunya cukup asem gitu ya, tapi setelah di apply dan meresap hilang & gak berbau lagi kok. repurchase ?

Pernah coba ganti serum vitamin C lain, flek-flek langsung bermunculan dan menebal. Begitu balik lagi pakai produk ini, flek yang baru-baru muncul itu langsung menipis. Ada serum vitamin C lain lagi yang juga oke tapi teksturnya sangat lengket; sedangkan serum Show more
