Glow Recipe Pineapple-C Bright Serum - Vitamin C Serum with Hyaluronic Acid + Vitamin E for Brightening + Exfoliating - Vegan Hydrating Face Serum for Blemish-Prone + Sensitive Skin (30ml / 1oz)

Product Information

Thanks to all its beneficial components, Purslane Extract has several magic properties: it's a great anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent and also has wound healing abilities.

A: Our skin naturally goes through a cell turnover process every 4 to 6 weeks, which means that our skin gets rid of all of those dead skin cells to reveal brighter, happier skin.Thankfully, we have formulated our serum with two stabilized forms of vitamin C along with pure L-Ascorbic acid which helps your serum remain fresher— longer. My skin is quite sensitive when it comes to vitamin C but the glow recipe products just always seem to work so well with it.

In here we have Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, which is an oil-soluble form of Vitamin C, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (a doctored version of ascorbic acid that's more stable), Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a salt-based derivative and Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate and Ascorbyl Glucoside are water-soluble derivatives. Ethyl Ascorbic Acid or EAC for short is an "etherified derivative of ascorbic acid" that consists of vitamin C and an ethyl group bound to the third carbon position.

At the same time, it also boosts the effectiveness of other preservatives, such as the nowadays super commonly used phenoxyethanol. Once the serum has absorbed, apply other face products worn daily, making sure to use sunscreen during the day as directed. I rarely use serums, just because my skin is acne-prone and doesn't take too well to product layering, but this has swayed me. Dispense a couple drops into your palm and pat into your skin until absorbed — it won't take long, your skin will drink this sweet treatment right up.

EAC seems to have both an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect, and it's claimed to be able to boost the skin's collagen production. Additionally, and maybe because of the dry skin in these areas, but I had a lot more blackheads around my mouth, on my chin, and all over my nose, which was super gross! In Aldi's pineapple serum, ethyl ascorbic acid (a version of vitamin C) comes 12th in the list of ingredients whereas it's sixth in Glow Recipe's version, suggesting that the former is weaker in potency.A dose of hyaluronic acid and skin-soothing chamomile and aloe smooth, condition, and plump your skin to really pump up the dewy look, and gives the serum a bouncy, silky, non-sticky feel that absorbs fast. Lee promised me that I would attain "glass skin" using only one or two drops at a time, citing a term that I've been whispering in my sleep ever since trying the 11-step regimen that turned my face into a translucent, poreless masterpiece.

According to manufacturer info, it's also a moisturizer and helps to make the product feel great on the skin. Arginine usually has a positive charge (cationic) that makes it substantive to skin and hair (those are more negatively charged surfaces) and an excellent film former.They essentially contain healing properties, anti-inflammatory properties, and can control hyperpigmentation for a more even skin tone creating a natural glow. It is a polymer (created from repeating subunits) molecule and has different molecular weight and thus different viscosity versions from water-light to thick liquid. Meanwhile, the natural AHAs and bromelain enzymes from pineapple gently exfoliate while the built-in skin soothers (chamomile and aloe) ensure that skin stays happy and refreshed.
