MORE ABOUT L-ASCORBIC ACID

UNT emphasizes the importance of effectiveness when it comes to whitening products. There are many factors that influence whether or not the vitamin C in a product will be effective. UNT meets every requirement for an effective vitamin C formula according to Duke University. These requirements include:

Vitamin C must be in the form of L-Ascorbic Acid. The skin cells can only use vitamin C in the form of L-Ascorbic Acid. While the stomach can easily break down and convert vitamins into forms used by the body, the skin lacks these enzymes. Anything applied topically MUST be in a form that is instantly usable to the skin cells. New science shows that these other vitamin C derivatives do get into the skin, but they are not converted.

The vitamin C must be present at high concentrations. Vitamin C is best absorbed in concentrations of 10-20%, with 20% showing the maximum skin absorption levels.

Vitamin C must be at an acid pH in order to be absorbed by the skin. A pH range from 2.8-3.1 is optimal.

ROLE OF VITAMIN C FOR SKIN CARE

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that may help neutralize the cell-damaging effects of free radicals, the unstable chemicals that result from air pollution, smoking, stress, and sunlight. Free radicals are one of the major causes for many of our skin problems. These include wrinkles and cancer.

Vitamin C stimulates the growth of collagen. This maintains healthy skin elasticity and texture!
