    Hello,

    I always read your blog and apply information from it in my cosmetic routine.
    You usually write about Vitamin C and how it can boost collagen production, so I recently found new product that claims to have 79% concentration of Vitamin C.
    The weird thing is that this product comes in with Vitamin C in a solid form that should be mixed with special activator.
    Can this possibly be an effective treatment for wrinkles? Can this product work?
    Ingredients:
    Vitamin C spheres: ascorbic acid, polyquaternium-10, simmondsia chinesis

    Activator: water, glycerol, 1,5-pentanediol, sodium lactate, lactic acid ferment bacteria.


    Thank you!

    Pre-mixing the product just before use could be stabilize the Vitamin C. I haven’t see any data on this approach but theoretically it could work.

    Hi Randy,

    Even if it is stable, isn’t 79% concentration a bit too much for the skin ? And can it irritate skin?

    Yes that is too high. Maybe when you mix the products the vitamin C is diluted? I don’t know.
