The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, Topical Vitamin C and the Skin: Mechanisms of Action and Clinical ApplicationsAs powerful and game-changing as vitamin C can be, it’s pretty easy to unintentionally reduce its effects—by leaving the cap open for too long, for example, or storing it near direct sunlight.
