What is L-Ascorbic Acid?

L-ascorbic acid may sound like a tongue twister and confusing name, but its characteristics are simple - it is the purest form of Vitamin C, as well as the most effective! Vitamin C is vital for not just the body but also the skin’s ability to heal, which is why it’s such a well-loved skincare ingredient.  

A common misconception is that Vitamin C skincare products should be used at night. We’re here to clear that up! The powerhouse ingredient not only fades hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone, but also holds a lesser known ability - and that is to boost sun protection! This is why Vitamin C serums are most effective when applied in the morning, after cleansing and toning and before moisturising and SPF. And while you can use Vitamin C at night as well, you should always include it in your daytime skincare routine.  

Sigi Skin’s Daylight Oasis Vitamin C Serum boasts a broad range of skin-loving ingredients that work together to brighten your complexion and increase protection against UV rays. In addition to 15% of L-ascorbic acid, which is the highest concentration suitable for skincare, Daylight Oasis also contains Vitamin E. When these two vitamins are combined, followed by sunscreen application, the SPF protection is actually increased by a whopping four times. Aside from the sun protection benefits, Daylight Oasis also includes exosomes, which helps with skin healing and stabilises L-ascorbic acid, and typically used in medical-grade skincare or clinical procedures, but now bottled for you to enjoy every day!  

In your daily morning routine, wash your face with the Kaleanser Face Wash, followed by the Dew Potion Essence Mist to tone your skin. Take 1~2 pumps of Daylight Oasis Vitamin C serum and massage well into your skin. Lock in the skin benefits with the Idyllic Fields Daytime Moisturiser, and end it off with the Morning Glow Physical Sunscreen. Achieving glowing and healthy skin has never been easier!
