A Protective and Corrective Ingredient
Vitamin C is a water-soluble nutrient that is essential for many bodily functions. It is found naturally in fruits and vegetables like lemons, oranges, broccoli, and tomatoes. Vitamin C is added to skincare products in its pure form as L-ascorbic acid or other derivatives such as retinyl ascorbate, ascorbyl palmitate, and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate.
Vitamin C ingredients deliver plenty of benefits when applied to the skin. For one, vitamin C is a potent antioxidant. It neutralizes the harmful free radicals that destroy your cells and contribute to wrinkles and skin laxity. By protecting your skin from free radical damage, vitamin C skin products can help slow down skin aging.
In addition to its protective and anti-aging properties, vitamin C can also even out your skin tone. This brightening ingredient inhibits excessive melanin production which is responsible for skin discoloration like dark spots/patches and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). This helps unify your skin tone and gives you a radiant complexion.
Defend and Brighten Your Skin With Senté Vitamin C Products
Senté offers unique vitamin C ingredient solutions, because Senté products are also formulated with our patented Heparan Sulfate Analog (HSA) skincare technology. HSA is a modified version of Heparan Sulfate ⏤ a naturally occurring molecule that promotes skin restoration from within.
Combined in one formulation, HSA can help boost the anti-aging and brightening effects of vitamin C. As vitamin C shields against damage, HSA helps improve skin health. In one clinical study, our vitamin C infused Neck Firming Cream was shown to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, redness, and uneven pigmentation in just four weeks.
Although most vitamin C solutions have stability issues, Senté products are highly stable. That's because instead of using common vitamin C ingredients, we use a fat-soluble form of vitamin C known as tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate. This ingredient ensures a fresh formulation until the minute it is applied to your skin. Order our vitamin C skin products to enjoy the confidence that comes with healthier and brighter skin.
