Notes from the Paula's Choice Lab
5% Vitamin C Sheer Moisturizer SPF 50 is treatment, moisturizer and sun protection in one powerful multi-active step. Three types of highly stable vitamin C brighten dullness, even tone and supercharge SPF for advanced sun protection, while the weightless, hydrating formula creates an instant glow with a sheer finish.
- 3-O Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Ascorbyl Glucoside + Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate: stable forms of vitamin C that improve tone, fade discolorations, visibly firm, and protect against oxidative damage.
- Acetyl Zingerone: ginger-derived omni-antioxidant that reduces and helps prevent damage and the look of discoloration.
- Porphyra Umbilicalis (Red Algae) Extract: algae aminos that enhance UV protection and help defend skin from environmental stressors.
How to Use
