The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12% - a brightening serum with stabilized vitamin C derivative.

Vitamin C is an effective antioxidant, brightens the skin tone and reduces signs of ageing. In its pure form, Vitamin C is unstable in water. Ascorbyl Glucoside is a water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C. It is much more stable in water but it is less potent than direct L-Ascorbic Acid. Being more compatible with water allows for a very pleasant serum texture. It is considered a gold standard of Vitamin C derivatives due to its high stability and comfortable use, but it's impossible to achieve extremely high L-Ascorbic Acid potency with this solution. Aside from the general benefits of pure Vitamin C, Ascorbyl Glucoside has been shown to offer specific skin brightening benefits.

Alcohol-free, oil-free, nut-free, vegan, gluten-free, soy-free.

Directions

Apply a few drops of The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12% to face AM and PM.

Aqua (Water), Ascorbyl Glucoside, Propanediol, Aminomethyl Propanol, Triethanolamine, Isoceteth-20, Xanthan gum, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Ethoxydiglycol, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Just started using the products I bought the products a week ago and I’m reacting to the products I have emailed the company but they haven’t responded as yet what to do. Thanks

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product but wasteful size bottle I love this product and can really see the difference it has made to my hyperpigmentation. However, I find it impossible to finish a bottle within the 6 months usage period, even though I use a generous amount twice a day, which seems terribly wasteful. Surely it would be better to produce a smaller sized bottle or increase the stability of the product so that it lasts longer than 6 months? Not a complaint, just a suggestion :-)

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Was already Oxidized Purchase 2 bottles. Open 1st bottle and the serum was a brown color with dark brown specks inside the bottle. Open the second bottle and it was the same. Is this the normal color?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Brilliant for age spots I have been using Ascorbyl Glucoside for a couple of months on the back of my hands and it has really made a difference to the age spots I’ve had for years. They haven’t gone but they are so much lighter. It does dry slightly shiny, but I then use moisturiser and it’s fine. A brilliant product.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Be careful with this at night time! The product itself seems to work well for my skin (Dry-sensitive), leaving it smooth and glassy, which a reduction in the appearance of sunspots. HOWEVER, be careful using this at night/bed time. It has left black bleach marks all over my white pillowcases and sheets from it rubbing off my face onto the fabric. I can confirm this also happened to another pair of sheets at a hotel I was staying at, where I was using the product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Age spots on my hands are gone I was starting to show light age spots on my hands and arms. After repeated use and less than two months the spots are gone. I use it right after I shower, let it dry and had moisturizer or you end up with a slightly sticky skin and then shiny/cakey. Highly recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from OMG!!! I've never written a review, yet here I am. This stuff has transformed my skin. I read that combining this form of vitamin C with Niacinamide does wonderful things. I have SUPER sensitive and acne prone skin (in my 60s!!). Within 3 days (no joke), my skin looked brighter and plumper. Since I started using this (over a month now), I have had zero (ZERO!) acne. I hope it continues and my skin won't "adjust" to its old, former self. WOW, just WOW. I find it feels oily even though it states it is water based, so I put the niacinamide on first, then this, then my spf moisturizer. Did I say WOW?!!!

Hi, does this help with redness of the skin? I have very mild rosacea on my cheeks. Thanks x

Asked by: Carolyne
Hi! For me it does not helped with redness, but it did brighten pigmentation, helped with acne with extra moister. Just don't put it in the morning before going out, it will provoke more redness, and always use SPF.

Can I use this in conjunction with Niacinamide 10% and Zinc 1%, or should they be used separately at different times of the day?

Asked by: Amy
Hi there, The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12% is a form of topical Vitamin C. It should be applied at alternate times with Niacinamide otherwise Niacinamide can effect the power of Vitamin C products. Hope this helps! Best wishes Katie, Beauty Expert.

Does it is helpful for tanned skin

Asked by: Priyank
Hi there, Thanks for reaching out to us. This product isn't necessarily for lightening the actual skin colour, it's more for brightening dull skin, providing radiance, reducing pigmentation marks (freckles, sun damage, age spots) so it would be suitable for any skin type/colour. I hope this helps! Thanks, Chloe - Beauty Expert
