Product Description

vitamin c serum, diy vitamin c serum

Vitamin C: The Antioxidant Powerhouse

Free radicals from pollution, smoke, UV rays and other external aggressors are around us all the time. They create an inflammatory response in the skin that results in dullness, wrinkles, dark spots and uneven texture and tone. Vitamin C protects against oxidative stress by donating electrons to neutralize offending free radicals.

Benefits of Topical Vitamin C Include:

  1. Brighter, more youthful skin - Topical vitamin C powder increases collagen and restores skin elasticity. It softens fine lines and wrinkles, reverses sun damage and reduces visible discoloration
  2. Reduced inflammation and redness - Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant. It prevents and reduces inflammation associated with free radicals
  3. Diminishes the appearance of scars and skin imperfections - Vitamin C can make scars smaller and less visible and improves the appearance of blotchy, uneven skin

fresh vitamin c

When it comes to Vitamin C - Fresh is Best

Water based vitamin C products such as lotions and serums are highly unstable and oxidize quickly. Oxidized vitamin C is ineffective and can irritate and damage the skin. Commercial skincare brands use a number of derivatives to try to prolong their vitamin C products shelf-life, resulting in expensive products with varying degrees of efficacy.

Mixing your own vitamin C products allows you to harness the full power of topical vitamin C at a fraction of the cost of commercial products.

Why choose Bos Essentials Vitamin C Powder?

The majority of vitamin C powders on the market are too grainy to dissolve properly in water and recrystallize when applied to the skin. This can clog pores and prevent absorption. Bos Essentials vitamin C powder is specifically formulated for cosmetic use. It is an ultra fine powder that dissolves instantly in water allowing you to create luxurious serums that penetrate and absorb into the skin.

Perfect for cosmetic use – makes great serums
I use vitamin c powder to make my own cosmetic serums. Vitamin C is pretty much the best thing you can do for your skin, it increases collagen, reduces wrinkles and makes it look younger and brighter. Most vitamin c powders come in granular form which is really difficult to dissolve in water. Even most of the vitamin c powders that are marketed for cosmetic use are too grainy for proper absorption. This vitamin c powder really is an ultra fine powder. It absorbs instantly when mixed with water and creates facial serums that are smooth and effective.I used this in conjunction with the Bos Essentials hyaluronic acid powder in a recipe that I found on that listing which I am copying here:1 tbsp Bos Essentials vitamin c powder4 tbsp waterA pinch of baking soda (optional – to raise the PH)1-2 drops ferulic acid powder that has been dissolved in an alcohol base (I use vodka) (optional but good to help stabilize vitamin c)A small squirt of glycerin (optional)½ tsp Bos Essentials hyaluronic acid powderWhat you do is you add the vitamin c powder to the water, then you add the ferulic acid powder paste and the glycerin. When all of these ingredients are fully incorporated, add the hyaluronic acid powder, shake it and put it in the refrigerator overnight to gel (hyaluronic acid will make the mixture grainy at first which is why you add it last). And voila! A cheap, effective anti-aging serum that’s better than anything you can buy at the store. This makes about a 10% vitamin c solution so feel free to add more vitamin c as your skin builds up tolerance to it. Attached are a few pictures so you can see the finished product.
