The Ordinary Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2%

Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2%

is a brightening serum that combines two powerful ingredients to address hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. Here’s a quick look at the benefits of each ingredient:

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) 8%:

Known for its antioxidant properties, Ascorbic Acid helps protect skin from environmental stressors and reduces the appearance of aging by brightening and evening out skin tone. It also promotes collagen production, enhancing skin’s firmness and reducing fine lines.

Alpha Arbutin 2%:

Alpha Arbutin is a gentle but effective skin-brightening agent. It helps reduce the look of dark spots and hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the production of melanin (the pigment responsible for skin discoloration).

How to Use:

Apply a few drops to the face in the morning and evening before oils, moisturizers, or creams. Avoid using with niacinamide, as it may affect the stability of vitamin C.
