The Ordinary Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% In Vitamin F is a facial serum designed primarily for dry skin. It is suitable for dull or uneven-looking skin and visible signs of ageing.

Key Benefits

This lightweight vitamin C oil helps to brighten skin, even out its appearance and reduce visible signs of ageing. The product also provides antioxidant support.

Vitamin F, containing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, helps to support the skin's natural moisture barrier.

The serum combines brightening care with moisture barrier support, making it suited to the needs of dry, dull or uneven-looking skin.

Formulation

This variant is labelled with a concentration of 20% ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate in vitamin F. Key ingredients include tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate and ethyl linoleate. The serum contains an oil-soluble vitamin C derivative that converts to vitamin C upon application to the skin. According to the manufacturer, this derivative has a lower irritation potential than direct forms of vitamin C.
