Why You Can Trust This Product
Most vitamin C serums use unstable L-ascorbic acid requiring synthetic stabilisers and phenoxyethanol as preservative. This uses sodium ascorbyl phosphate (stable vitamin C derivative) with radish root ferment as preservative — not phenoxyethanol. Certified organic base. Women-owned herbalist brand.
✦ Ingredient Spotlight: Vitamin C
Vitamin C neutralises free radicals, stimulates collagen synthesis, and reduces hyperpigmentation at 10–20% concentration. Sodium ascorbyl phosphate (SAP) is significantly more stable than L-ascorbic acid and has been shown in studies to produce comparable brightening outcomes — the preferred form for long-shelf-life clean formulas.
