Vitamin C for Body Lotion and Face

Here are some Vitamin C options suitable for mixing into body lotion and for facial use:

For Mixing into Body Lotion

You can mix the following Vitamin C ingredients into your body lotion base:

• Perfect-C™ (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate): This is an oil-soluble and highly stable form of Vitamin C. It is effective for whitening, anti-aging, and improving skin softness. It should be mixed into the oil phase of your lotion or cream.
• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C SAP): This is a water-soluble and highly stable form of Vitamin C. It is effective for whitening and can be mixed into the water phase of your lotion or cream.

Both are suitable for body use when properly incorporated into a lotion formula.

For Facial Skin

For facial skin, you have options for both ready-to-use serums and ingredients to mix into your own base:

• 16% Vitamin C Brightening Serum (Compare To Vichy Liftactiv): This is a ready-made serum containing 16% Ascorbic Acid. It is designed to be used directly on the skin or as a base for other ingredients. It is effective for brightening and anti-aging.
• Vitamin C E Ferulic: This product uses Ascorbic Acid stabilized with Vitamin E and Ferulic Acid. It is a potent option for facial use.
• Perfect-C™ (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate): As mentioned for body lotion, this oil-soluble form is also excellent for facial skin, targeting wrinkles, radiance, and collagen production. It needs to be mixed into an oil-based serum, cream, or lotion.
• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C SAP): This water-soluble form is also suitable for facial whitening when mixed into a water-based serum, cream, or lotion.
• Ascorbyl Glucoside 20% Gel (MaxActivate™): This is a gel containing Ascorbyl Glucoside. Please note that this product is designed to be used with the MaxActivate™ VC (Ascorbic Acid Enzymatic Activator) and is not typically applied directly on its own.

When using ingredients to mix your own product, always follow recommended usage rates and formulation guidelines for stability and effectiveness.
