Garden of Wisdom's C³ Lipid Elixir penetrates the skin deeper than traditional Vitamin C Serums.

C³ Lipid Elixir contains Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate to fight the visible signs of skin aging, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as even out the skin's tone, and brighten the skin’s complexion. This super lightweight, non-irritating, and easily absorbed formulation is 100% stable. It doesn’t break down over time like some vitamin C serums and remains as effective as the day you open it.
C³ Lipid Elixir quickly and effectively protects the skin against the harmful free radicals found in the food we eat, the medicines we take, the air we breathe, and the water we drink.

How does it work?
Just above the deepest layers of our skin lies a protective lipid (oil) barrier within the dermis. Traditional L-Ascorbic Acid vitamin C serums are water-soluble, which limits their ability to penetrate this oil-rich environment effectively.
Garden of Wisdom’s C³ Lipid Elixir contains Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, a form of Vitamin C that has been modified to be soluble in oil or lipids and enters the skin faster and more profoundly than any other form of vitamin C.
With its unique formulation, C³ Lipid Elixir effectively and efficiently boosts and stimulates the skin’s collagen production, an essential protein that gives the skin its youthful firmness and elasticity.

The Science:
Vitamin C derivatives need to be converted into L-Ascorbic Acid. It is this L-Ascorbic Acid that fades away age spots, enhances collagen production, and fights free radicals.
Studies indicate that Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate not only converts into L-Ascorbic acid but also behaves in a similar way, albeit more quickly and effectively, with significantly better results.
With the introduction of Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate suspended in Squalane, a light oil which is easily absorbed into the skin, Garden of Wisdom's C³ Lipid Elixir can provide all these benefits faster than other Vitamin C serums.

The Summary:
C³ Lipid Elixir is the gold standard of Vitamin C. Its unique formulation provides potent antioxidant protection by destroying free radicals that cause premature ageing of the skin. Traditional Vitamin C serums are unable to penetrate deep into the skin’s dermis, making them less effective at boosting collagen production.
In addition, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate will also stimulate your skin’s production of hyaluronic acid – helping to hydrate and plump skin cells and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles - resulting in a more youthful looking complexion.

Suitability:
C³ Lipid Elixir is stable, safe, effective, and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, providing a potent blast of Vitamin C to your skin without any irritation. Like all Garden of Wisdom serums, this Vitamin C serum is clean, non-toxic, free from alcohol and silicones.

YES, this is the Original C-Deep Vitamin C Serum!

Directions: Apply 1 to 2 pumps of C³ Lipid Elixir to your face and neck. Use AM and PM after cleansing. Leave to absorb before applying other oil-based serums or moisturizers. If using water-based serums then apply C³ Lipid Elixir after their use.
