The Ordinary 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder 20g 2018
Product Description
Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces the appearance of signs of aging.
The Ordinary 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder offers a very fine L-Ascorbic Acid powder that visibly targets the appearance of uneven skin tone, dullness, and signs of aging and is formulated to be mixed with other treatments (except those containing Niacinamide or EUK 134).
The format of this formula is a suspension of very fine L-Ascorbic Acid powder and, as such, provides the most direct exposure of extremely high concentrations of Vitamin C topically. With such format, a very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use until the skin's tolerance to such high exposure is elevated.
If topical Vitamin C is used as part of skincare, it should be applied at alternate times with EUK 134 or Niacinamide (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and EUK 134/Niacinamide in the AM). Otherwise, EUK 134/Niacinamide can affect the integrity of pure-form Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid).
This formula is water-free, alcohol-free, nut-free, gluten-free and vegan.

Directions
Mix a small amount with other treatments in the palm of your hand and apply to face in the AM or the PM. A tingling sensation can be expected after application. Do not mix with formulations containing Niacinamide or EUK 134.

Amazing product
I bought this powder to brighten my dark spots, I mix it with azelaic acid cream and it works wonders! People started complimenting me about my glowing complexion after only 3 days of use! Highly recommend, great quality for an affordable price!

A good vitamin C solution.
I wanted a stable L-ascorbic acid and this powder to mix in your moisturizer for example is a good solution. Best applied in the morning before your sunscreen.

Gritty
Tried different quantities of the product with different moisturisers but it was still quite gritty. Could use it long enough to see how well it works. Bought something else.

Good quality budget vitamin c
Takes a few weeks for your skin to adjust to and to find the right combination to mix with that suits BUT there's definitely been a noticeable difference in texture and tone.

Can I mix this powder with the ordinary Alpha arbutin2% + HA?
Hi, please send your query to care@feelunique.com. Thanks
Date published: 2023-03-01
can I mix this with my DHC Coenzyme Q10 moisture gel in AM and Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F in PM. I have Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane and Lactic Acid 5% + HA. Please advice which I can use and when with Buffet copper peptide
Hey there,
For products that aren’t from The Ordinary unfortunately we won’t be able to advise on whether it’s safe to mix their Q10 moisturiser with any of their products as they haven’t been tested for this.
We would also recommend the below options for you:
AM:
Buffet + Copper Peptides
Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate 20% *if desired*
PM 1:
Buffet * copper peptides
Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane
Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate 20%
PM 2:
Lactic acid 5%
Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane
Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate
Hope this helps!
Many thanks Katie, Beauty Expert.

What "other treatments" can this product be mixed with?
Hi there,
The Ordinary 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder, it can be mixed with most water-based serums or moisturisers from The Ordinary. The ones the customer should definitely avoid would be the following:
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%
Buffet
Buffet + Copper Peptides 1%
Matrixyl 10% + HA
Argireline Solution 10%
We would also advise against mixing it with any of our direct acids or retinoid products unless your skin is super hyper non-sensitive!
The Ordinary highly recommend the Natural Moisturising Factors + HA or the Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5. They could also use an oil, although the powder will not dissolve in oil and so therefore may feel slightly gritty!
Hope this helps.
Thanks Katie, Beauty Expert.
