The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. Enter the 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder (20g), a powdered form of direct vitamin C that brightens and evens skin tone.
Meet your skins new BFF: The Ordinary's 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder (20g).
Powered solely by ascorbic acid (AKA vitamin C), this treatment is an effective antioxidant that brightens and evens out skin tone for a more youthful complexion. Want to know how? It provides the most direct exposure of extremely high concentrations of vitamin C topically. Okay, but how do I apply a powder to my face? Let us divulge... this powder can be mixed with other serums, creams or moisturisers (except those containing niacinamide or EUK 134) so it will slot in perfectly to any ritual.
Ascorbic Acid.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Mix a small amount with other treatments in the palm of your hand and apply to face in the AM or the PM. A tingling sensation can be expected after application. Do not mix with formulations containing Niacinamide or EUK 134.
If topical Vitamin C is used as part of skin care, it should be applied at alternate times with EUK 134 or Niacinamide (ideally Vitamin C in the PM and EUK 134/Niacinamide in the AM). Otherwise, EUK 134/Niacinamide can affect the integrity of pure-form Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid).
Top Tip: A very strong tingling but non-irritating sensation is to be expected during the first 1-2 weeks of use while your skins tolerance to vitamin C is elevated.

Ok
Not bad, though I was advised by my aesthetician to avoid powder form due to instability. I liked it that I could mix it in with other serums and it did give me that Vit C glow though.

Good idea
I bought this for travelling purposes to save some space and saving bringing a serum, I have to say it does the job for a very reasonable price and I guess vit C is preserved in a much better way.

Even skin tone
The spots on my face and unevenness has gone with continuous usage. I use it atleast 3 times per week mixed with my moisturiser. This has brought a significant brightness to my face.

Love it
Very potent as you can feel some slight stinging. Liquid Vitamin Cs decrease potency once the bottle opens. Easier to mix with thinner moisturisers.

Really nice product
I love using this product mixed with the Inkey List Hyaluronic Acid and Drunk Elephant Protini moisturiser in the mornings. Need to find the right amount for your skin, and tangling at first is to be expected. But get the measurements right and it leaves skin feeling smooth and bright. A lot of product in the pot - I think it will last a long time! I love other more expensive Vitamin C products like Drunk Elephant C Firma serum, but this product feels strong and potent as well. Highly Recommend.Â

Allergy reaction!
I used to like The Ordinary. But I recently noticed that a few of their products caused me allergic reaction, including this one, and the AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution. Areas around my mouth and eyes became painful, itchy, swollen and red. It took 2-3 days to get back to normal. I don't have allergy-prone skin and I have tried many different brands. This is the only brand and I am allergic to. I will not buy this brand anymore.

Requires some getting used to
I have been using L-ascorbic acid from the Ordinary for years. This is the first time trying the powder version. It did take some getting used to. It doesn't mix well with all creams, with thicker creams the powder doesn't dissolve and i end up with a granular layer on my skin. With a gel based day cream it works perfectly for me. It does sting on application but it doesn't irritate my skin. You do have to add an extra step to your routine (mixing the powder) every day but to me it's worth the effort because the product works great and one jar last a long time.
