Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Ascorbic Acid is is pure Vitamin C. This form makes up the largest amount of vitamin C found naturally in our skin.
Not only is vitamin C great for your overall health and immune system, it also has plenty of benefits on your skin.
Vitamin C is best used for brightening skin. It improves dark spots, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. This is because it blocks the process of skin darkening when exposed to UV.
Remember: Vitamin C should not replace sunscreen!
Your skin uses vitamin C to build collagen. Collagen is one key component in having a strong skin barrier and plump skin. Vitamin C also plays a role in regulating collagen, thus making it effective in improving wrinkles and fine lines.
Ascorbic acid shows potent antioxidant activity. As an antioxidant, it helps fight free-radicals. Free-radicals are molecules that may damage your skin cells. These antioxidants also protect skin against UV damage.
The best formulations include Vitamin E and/or ferulic acid. These two ingredients help stabilize and provide a boost in the benefits of ascorbic acid. This is because ascorbic acid becomes unstable when exposed to UV and air. In fact, you can tell your ascorbic acid has oxidized when it turns an orange-yellow color.
Ascorbic acid is generally compatible with other ingredients. However, using ascorbic acid with other active ingredients might cause irritation. Two ingredients: copper ions and benzoyl peroxide, will inactivate ascorbic acid completely.

I had another Vitamin C Ampoule before, but then I got this Mizon product from a giveaway event. I was excited to try it since I needed to buy a new ampoule because I had used up all of my previous one.
However, this Mizon Ampoule was very oily. It remained oily on my skin, even though I actually have dry skin. I felt a little bit itchy and not refreshed. The instructions say I should put it in Show more

It's Okay...
I purchased this based on the recommendation from Angie (Hot & Sassy) as this line is one of her favs. The packaging is bulky, so not travel friendly and the texture comes out watery BUT once you apply it, it feels very nice! It makes your skin feel soft (it's weird). It's not my favorite vitamin C as I don't think it leaves my skin glowy like others I've used, so I won't repurchase Show more
I like the effect on skin but do get some break out activity with it.
