Vitamin C Lactic Dewy Deep Cream

Moisturizer · 30 ingredients

A rich, deeply hydrating cream formulated to address signs of aging, uneven texture, and dryness. It combines 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, a stable form of vitamin C, to minimize the appearance of hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and wrinkles, while lactic acid works to increase absorption and enhance antioxidant performance. Squalane rounds out the formula, delivering lasting moisture to the skin. It is well-suited for those concerned with dullness, dryness, and the early signs of aging.
