Are all Vitamin C creams the same?

According to our dear Dr. Flávia Piza (CRM/SP 103499), vitamin C creams are not all the same. First, it's important to pay attention to the type of vitamin C used. In its natural form, this vitamin oxidizes very quickly, so it needs to be stabilized. Otherwise, it won't be effective for the hours we need it after opening the bottle.

The second important question is whether it's pure or a derivative of vitamin C. Pure forms have excellent bioavailability and immediate action, offering great skin protection. However, not everyone tolerates its use in its pure form. That's why we use derivatives, which are more suitable for those with more sensitive skin.

Vitamin C offers many benefits for the skin, including preventing premature aging and protecting against free radicals, protecting the skin from the sun, stimulating collagen production, providing firmer skin, and excellent for combating dark spots.
