What Nykaa E retail limited Says

Product Description:

3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is the most potent form of Vitamin C with an immense brightening effect. It helps treat pigmentation and evens the skin tone. 20% Vitamin C is highly effective in stopping melanin biosynthesis, neutralizing free radicals, and preventing inflammatory processes. It provides visible anti-aging benefits, brightens skin, and helps protect against oxidative stress. Ferulic Acid neutralizes free radicals, enhances antioxidant benefits, and stability of Vitamin C. It boosts the effects of Vitamin C & Hyaluronic Acid and protects the overall skin integrity by slowing and ultimately stopping the development of spots, wrinkles, and fine lines. Hyaluronic Acid provides long-lasting hydration to improve the skin texture, keeping the skin supple & hydrated, reduces fine lines visibility, retains moisture, and increases skin cell turnover creating a 'plump' effect.
