    Hello,

    Vitamin C serums can be expensive and I’ve recently found a cheap alternative.

    REDERMIC C From La Roche Posay claims to have 5% ascorbic acid concentration. However it contains water, and I’ve read on your blog that creams with water should be especially formulated to preserve Vitamin C properties.

    Could you please look at the ingredient list and assess whether this product is going to be effective?

    COMPOSITION – FIL Code : B51204/1
    AQUA / WATER
    DIMETHICONE
    ISOCETYL STEARATE
    GLYCERIN
    MANNOSE
    ASCORBIC ACID
    CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE
    BUTYLENE GLYCOL
    SUCROSE TRISTEARATE
    POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE
    SODIUM STYRENE/MA COPOLYMER
    POLYMETHYLSILSESQUIOXANE
    STEARETH-10
    MADECASSOSIDE
    SODIUM STEAROYL GLUTAMATE
    HYDROGENATED LECITHIN
    HYDROLYZED HYALURONIC ACID
    CAPRYLYL GLYCOL
    TETRASODIUM EDTA
    ACETYL DIPEPTIDE-1 CETYL ESTER
    XANTHAN GUM
    ACRYLATES COPOLYMER
    ACRYLATES/C10-30 ALKYL ACRYLATE CROSSPOLYMER
    PHENOXYETHANOL
    PARFUM / FRAGRANCE

    Thank you

    P.S. Love your blog!

    I really don’t know. I don’t see any of the classic stabilizing agents like Ferulic acid,
