• Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate is an oil-solluble vitamin C derivative. This means it maintains the stability of the formula while imparting the benefits of the component. Hence, it offers antioxidant protection from both UVB and UVA rays, increases collagen synthesis and it has a skin brightening effect by reducing melanogenesis (the multiplication of damaged skin cells) by more than 80%;
• Cucumber is a nutritious and very water-rich vegetable. Besides 95% water, it contains ascorbic acid (vitamin C), caffeic acid (an antioxidant), fatty acids, the mineral silica, plus other trace minerals. Due to its antioxidant activity, cucumber is a beneficial addition to a wrinkle-preventive routine;
• Aloe vera is a pulpy plant whose juice has countless benefits. Mainly, it is deeply hydrating and has several anti-inflammatory and antibacterial components. Additionally, it helps with wound healing and skin regeneration, balancing the potentially sensitizing effects of vitamin C;
• Collagen is a large molecule with a very high water-binding capacity. Thus, it acts as an outstanding humectant and moisturizer. It produces a water-rich film on the skin giving the stratum corneum (the uppermost layer of the skin) great hydration, making it nice and smooth and reducing trans-epidermal (evaporation through the skin surface) water loss.

Apply 3 to 4 drops of Mario Badescu Vitamin C Serum over thoroughly cleansed and dry skin. Use a suitable night cream or oil immediately after, to seal in the benefits of the serum. Avoid the periocular area. However, if the product gets into the eyes, rinse well with water.
