The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. Enter the 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder (20g), a powdered form of direct vitamin C that brightens and evens skin tone.
Meet your skins new BFF: The Ordinary's 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder (20g).
Powered solely by ascorbic acid (AKA vitamin C), this treatment is an effective antioxidant that brightens and evens out skin tone for a more youthful complexion. Want to know how? It provides the most direct exposure of extremely high concentrations of vitamin C topically. Okay, but how do I apply a powder to my face? Let us divulge... this powder can be mixed with other serums, creams or moisturisers (except those containing niacinamide or EUK 134) so it will slot in perfectly to any ritual.
Ascorbic Acid.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
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.
If topical Vitamin C is used as part of skin care, 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).
Top Tip: A very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is to be expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use while your skins tolerance to vitamin C is elevated.

Sadly wasn't for me
Unfortunately irritated my skin. I'm sure it's a great product but unfortunately just not suited for me, personally.

Brightening Boost
This vitamin C powder is fantastic for brightening my skin. I mix it with my serum and it makes my skin look so much more radiant and even-toned. A little goes a long way!

fav vitamin c
Vitamin c is one of my favorite skincare ingredients and I have used a lot of Vitamin c products including a few from the ordinary, this is the fastest I have ever seen results with vitamin c, although it does have a grainy feel on the skin when you rub it on, I personally don't mind that at all.

Not sure
I have used it for some time but maybe I need to use it longer to see any difference. It could be cumbersome using it at first because you need to mix small portion with your serum/cream in your palm before using,but after a while you get use to it. This is the second time I'm buying it,hopefully I see a positive change on my skin,fingers crossed.

irritated my skin but good
The product itself is good and I did notice some brightening, but it's hard to know how much to use without irritating my skin. After using this it's much easier for me to stick to serums that already have vitamin C instead of having to mix it in myself.

Too early to tell
I’ve only started using this for a week so it’s difficult to tell. However, having a tiny scooper inside the bottle will be helpful to a new user to know how much they should use.

Can't be used directly.
I wanted to just mix it unto my lotion but I have learnt you can't,you need to mix a little with your serum on your palm and apply to your face or you mix (with other items)a portion you can use for about a week. Now I'm lazy to do all these steps. I only want to apply my lotion on my body and feel good. The reviews are good but I don't think I want to buy it again, just because of the steps I have to follow before using.
