Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces the appearance of signs of aging. The Ordinary Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution offers a direct-acting form of Vitamin C, an effective antioxidant that has been shown to reverse multiple signs of skin aging while brightening the skin when applied topically. In its pure form, Vitamin C is unstable in water.

This formula offers a highly-stable, water-free, 15% Ethylated L-Ascorbic Acid solution. Unlike Vitamin C derivatives, ELAA does not require conversion to LAA (pure Vitamin C) and is directly usable by the skin. Using propanediol as the carrier for ELAA also ensures that it can efficiently penetrate into the skin and offer the best possible results.

Water-free, Alcohol-free, Oil-free, Nut-free, Vegan, Gluten-free.

Directions

Apply a few drops to face AM and PM.

Propanediol, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from See results but at a cost I have been using this product now for two months. Because I have sensitive skin, I started very slowly, applying this twice a week to every other day to now every day. I do see results: skin is brighter. However, I have noticed that the skin around my nose and mouth is often inflamed and I need to put heavy cream around this area to combat the irritation. I think the percentage is slightly too high for what my skin can tolerate so I will be looking for other products.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Reaction within a few days Within a few days of using this product, i noticed my face would heat up after application and itchy red bumps would appear. I would get them through out the day. I tried stopping just this product (I also bought 3 other products) and the reaction went away. Too bad but definitely not working for me.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Strong allergic reaction I had no problem taking the serum for several weeks. Until one day I woke up in the morning and had redness to my face, neck and décolleté, rash and swelling. In my case, I can no longer use the serum.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Strong allergic reaction I used this product for many weeks without any irritation. But one day I woke up with strong skin allergic reaction: swollen eyes, itchy rash on my face, neck and chest (everywhere I have applied this serum). Definitelly can not use it any more. Sorry.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reduces redness like nothing I ever tried before I love this product because it reduces the redness on my skin like nothing else I have ever tried. It will only take two or three days of continued use and I can already see the difference. Makes me use a lot less make up and feel more comfortable. I tried several other vitamin C products by the ordinary and more expensive brands and no other product has ever had such a visible effect. Love I!!!

Hi, is this suitable for normal to oily skin? As I am after something that doesn't clog pores. Thank you

Asked by: Karolina
It's fine to use. You can see a difference when you use it but don't expect miracles.

Is this product suitable for a mature sensitive skin

Asked by: Maite
Hi, Thanks for reaching out to us. This product contains Vitamin C which an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces the appearance of signs of aging. The Ordinary Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution offers a direct-acting form of Vitamin C, an effective antioxidant that has been shown to reverse multiple signs of skin aging while brightening the skin when applied topically. I would recommend this for use on a maturer skin that requires brightening, however I would definitely be mindful when using it. Vitamin C can make the skin more sensitive and can have an adverse effect on skin that is sensitive already. You could start by using this product every other day, then once a day, slowly building up to twice a day as recommended. I hope this helps! Thanks, Chloe - Beauty Experts
