![]() ![]() But whatever you can get your hands on, use it…… Vit e is good, very good for your skin…. There….I guess, I have it all covered now….no wait… Vit e cap that I use are evion 400 mg IU. I have been applying one cap on my skin daily and my skin glows…. Even if you apply it directly to your skin. Else your serum would oxidize faster, making it into an oxidant instead of anti- oxidant. It is very beneficial in making the serum effective and also keeps the vit c stable. It might then react.ĭo not, I repeat, do not sacrifice vit e oil. If you don’t add more rose water, you will end up making the serum much more stronger. In case you find it too sticky, sacrifice glycerin, but replace it with more rose water. The consistency of the serum will be watery. So here goes the answers to hopefull all the queries……įirstly, only use the white tablets. Hello girls, sorry for not getting back for soooooooo long….just tied with so much stuff…. It will even help settle the chip chip feeling from glycerin:) hope I was able to clear all doubts… Oily skin beauties can use oilfree moisturizer. The points here is that seal in the goodness and not use anything that might clash with our serum. ![]() Just stay away from ingredients like retinol, hydroquinone, kojic acid, arbutin to name a few. This list is only illustrative and not exhaustive. Some that I really like are clean and clear, cetaphil, biotique, neutrogena, dabur, nivea soft, aroma magic etc. No treatment creams not whitening, not anti aging. Since it is highly potent, I would recommend to follow it up with a very mild moisturizer. The serum is effective on scars, hyperpigmentation, acne, open pores, dull and lifeless skin. From my personal experience, I can say that the tablets are as good as powder. I purchased mine from USA while I was there. It is available online at but I am sure the shipping would be insanely expensive. I could not find the vitamin c in powder form in Delhi and as far as I know it is not available for retail. I have only used celin, so that’s the one I know. ![]() Basically, any tablet that specifies it’s ingredient as ascorbic acid should be good. The orange ones are chewable and flavored. We use the white tablets since they are pure and devoid of additives and taste enhancers. Thank you girls for your wonderful comments □ will try to respond to all your queries in one go: Ever wondered why those high end, highly advertised products don’t work in spite of having all the right ingredients? Simple answer: not potent enough. It may not be potent enough to be effective on your skin. ![]() Most brands do not specify the percentage of vitamin c used in their formulations, so even if what you have purchased is fresh, you cannot be sure, if it will work for you. But since most brands add fragrance and colour to their product, this is not a very reliable method to check for oxidation.Īlso, for vitamin c to work for you there must be a minimum of 5% vitamin c in whatever formulation you are using. One way to find if the product you are using is any good is to check for the colour. Now I have not even begun to discuss all the money you have spent on your precious product. Rather, it works the other way round by actually working as an oxidant, instead of working as an anti-oxidant. So, in all probability, even before you buy your vitamin c product from the market shelf, it is good for nothing. Now the tricky part, l-ascorbic acid (the scientific name for pure vitamin c) is not a very stable compound and oxidises very quickly when it comes in contact with air and sunlight. Vitamin C and E, when used regularly, can help reduce the damage caused by the harmful UV rays. For those of you who don’t know, Vitamin C, when applied topically, is an excellent anti- oxidant and helps in the production of collagen which gives you flawless skin and also keeps wrinkles at bay. ![]()
