Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester CCC Plus Ferulic Brightening Complex

Product Information

This form of vitamin C is amped up with ferulic acid, an ingredient that you can consider the Robin to the former's Batman. "Ferulic acid is thought to both stabilize and enhance the photoprotective effects of vitamin C, which is why they are often combined," says James Y. Wang, MD, a board-certified dermatologist based in Los Angeles. That's why you may have spotted this powerful ingredient combination present in other skin-care products, including SkinCeuticals' biggest claim to fame, the C E Ferulic serum. A plant-based, super antioxidant that reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots by supporting the skin in fighting against free radical damage. Ferulic acid is also known to stabilize vitamins C and E to enhance their properties for maximum skin benefits. Formulated with Perricone MD’s proprietary vitamin C ester, along with two other forms of vitamin C to create a 20% concentration, Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester CCC + Ferulic Brightening Complex 20% has been created with a powerful phospholipid delivery system to reach and have maximum benefit on even the deepest layers of skin. Enriched with vitamin E and ferulic acid, the lightweight citrus-scented serum noticeably brightens, smooths, reduces dark spots and discolouration, evens skin tone and texture, and leaves the complexion looking luminous and radiant.

Although vitamin C is a key ingredient of youthful-looking skin, it is unstable and highly acidic, so when it is applied to the skin topically, it can cause irritation and redness. A supercharged and less abrasive form of vitamin C, our patented Vitamin C Ester is created from a fusion of natural vitamin C and palm oil, resulting in a highly stable, fat-soluble chemical bond. Many forms of Vitamin C Ester exist, however, the most proven and effective ones, known as long-chain esters, are the type Perricone MD uses exclusively. An exciting breakthrough, Vitamin C Ester provides the appearance of collagen-rich skin by visibly smoothing, brightening, minimising discolouration and restoring radiance. In combination with other powerful ingredients that hydrate, nourish and firm, this popular skincare line adds beautiful luminosity to the skin.

It's not bad, but it definitely does have a subtle hint of what The Cut accurately described as hotdog water, which is a common scent in many vitamin C formulas (albeit, no one knows why). Due to constant product testing, my brain is now rewired to think that this scent is actually kind of pleasant, but do what you will with that information.Our highest concentration of vitamin C to brighten, minimize discoloration, and even skin texture for a radiant complexion.
