The vitamin C ester collection by Perricone MD is an antioxidant-based range that targets dull, uneven and damaged skin. Suitable for all skin types, the collection is powered by patented vitamin C ester, also known as ascorbyl palmitate or tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate. This fast-absorbing ingredient brightens and visibly smooths with less irritation than traditional vitamin C.
What is vitamin C ester?
As our skin ages, molecules and important vitamins, such as C and E, decrease. This changes the skin’s colour, texture and composition and impacts how light reflects off the face.
Restoring vitamin C addresses an array of skin concerns for enhanced luminosity and firmness. However, vitamin C is unstable and highly acidic which can cause irritation and redness when applied topically. We patented our vitamin C ester as a less abrasive and supercharged solution, formulated with palm oil to create a highly stable, fat-soluble chemical bond.
Many forms of vitamin C ester exist, but Perricone MD exclusively uses long-chain esters as they are proven most effective. An exciting breakthrough, you can use vitamin C ester for the appearance of collagen-rich skin which is smooth and bright with minimal discolouration.
