Natural origin
The power of science
Vitamin C, or Ascorbic Acid, is found naturally in the body and comes primarily from fruits and vegetables (mainly citrus fruit and broccoli).
Skincare benefits of Vitamin C derivative
In cosmetics, vitamin C is well loved by those with dull skin due to its ability to help promote radiance and even skin tone by limiting an overproduction of melanin. However, in a pure state, it is unstable and breaks down quickly when exposed to light or heat. To help guarantee its performance in our formulas, Clarins Laboratories uses a stabilized derivative of vitamin C.
