Vitamin C, which is also known as Ascorbic Acid, a water soluble ingredient, is considered to be a ‘gold standard’.
For centuries it has been used to boost immunity, but when it comes to the skin care, it helps in the building collagen, which provide support to the skin and keeps it firm. It is an antioxidant which helps in neutralizing free radicals (a highly reactive molecule), and along with it also helps in curing and preventing pigmentation, UV stress (sun damage) and pollution.
It helps in regulating an enzyme Tyrosinase, hence controlling dark spots on the skin.
There are many types of Vitamin C products available in the market, which are enough to confuse you, so it is important to be very sure of the ingredient you are choosing, which suits your skin type
