Ingredients & Key Benefits of Skin Brightening ABC Active C Creamy Gel Serum

• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate

1. Superior stability to ascorbic acid.
2. Converts to ascorbic acid in the skin.
3. Powerful antioxidant that stops free radicals from binding to the cells – Free radicals are caused by environmental pollution that can cause the signs of ageing or imbalance in the skin.
4. It protects against photo damage – fine lines / wrinkles.
5. Inhibits production of melanin (Always wear sunscreen especially using Vitamin C) so reduces pigmentation and helps to protect against it.
6. Brightens the skin by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase so helps even skin tone.
7. Helps to treat acne and can heal acne lesions.
8. It stimulates the release of growth factors and fibroblasts that create new collagen so it can have a visible effect on fine lines and wrinkles.

• Hexapeptide 11

1. Peptides are short chain amino acids that make up proteins needed by the skin.
2. As collagen is made up of three polypeptide chains, adding peptides to your skincare can encourage the skin to make more collagen resulting in firmer, more youthful appearance.
3. Hexapeptide 11 is a signal peptide which means it sends messages to the skin cells to make more collagen, elastin and other proteins, thus providing structure, strength and support to the skin.
4. Help to firm the skin by encouraging the production of collagen, elastin and proteins.
5. Hexapeptide 11 increases cellular energy – Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, which reduces as we age. Greater ATP synthesis gives the skin more radiance and helps rejuvenate it.
