Potent power dual C with almost 23% Vitamin C from 2 stable forms of Vitamin C: water-soluble Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate and oil-soluble lipophilic Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate. It's aloe and water-based. When applied, it feels light, it's not oily, and does not dry out skin. It's not acidic, does not require a low pH, and does not compromise the skin barrier.
Think of this as an enhanced version of our 20% C Gel Serum -- with the addition of Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate C (THD Ascorbate), bioactive natural Vitamin E and CoQ10, all added to further boost effectiveness.
Vitamin C and Vitamin E work together synergistically to be more effective than either Vitamin alone for better free radical-fighting effects and improved results.
In addition to CoQ10 and Vitamin E, this formula delivers hydrating, soothing, nourishment from Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe, Green Tea, Chamomile, Olive Leaf, and Arginine.
While the 20% C Gel Serum is mattifying, this aloe jelly serum is both more potent and more suitable for all skin types from oily to dry.
