What are the benefits to Vitamin C?

In addition to using vitamins, peptides and antioxidants on the skin a topical application of concentrated Vitamin C can prevent premature aging, lighten skin discoloration, increase collagen production and increase sun protection.

When Vitamin C is applied it has many benefits. One, it works to increase collagen production in the skin and two it's powerful antioxidant that fights free radical damage. This will result in improved skin texture, less wrinkles, an overall brightening and glow to the skin.

What should you look for when purchasing Vitamin C?
The first factor to look for is oxidation. When exposed to air during manufacturing process before being packed and sealed oxidation has already taken place and can contribute to free radical damage. Purchasing products with airtight containers can help. As done with the amber product line. Keeping Vitamin C refrigerated can help as well. The next factor would be concentration. If the Vitamin C your product line carries has a high percentage the effect is much greater. Ambers Triple C Serum has ten percent Ascorbic Acid which is excellent for improving skin texture fast. Orange Peel, Lavender, Jasmine, Sandalwood and Rose Oil are also included in this Serum which are great for stabilizing the drying effects.

Vitamin C otherwise known as L-Ascorbic Acid improves the appearance of skin by reducing fine lines and wrinkles and protects and lessons the effects of sunburn. It also prevents cell damage due to ultra violet radiation. Once Vitamin C penetrates the skin it stays there for up to 72 hours. This means it has a long lasting benefit. Skin discoloration and scarring can be improved in several weeks. Ambers Unique C Serum contains Ascorbic Acid, Green Tea, Vitamin B, Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe Vera and Chamomile Extract. These key ingredients play a major role in smoothing out fine lines and promoting new healthy skin cells.


Vitamin C is a great addition to a retinol product like Ambers Retinol Recovery night cream or pure retinol. In conjunction this allows the skin to be exfoliated and immediately treated with powerful vitamins. If you've ever noticed someone having a dewy complexion it is probably from using a combination of retinol and Vitamin C. If skin is too sensitive for pure Vitamin C try Ambers Beauty Oil which contains Vitamin B, C and E. Need a quick pick me up? Try Ambers Vitamin C mask.
