The Ordinary Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F

Advanced Oil-Soluble Vitamin C Serum for Brighter, Healthier Skin

The Ordinary Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F is a high-potency, oil-soluble Vitamin C serum designed to deliver powerful antioxidant protection and deep skin nourishment. Known for its exceptional stability and low irritation potential, this formula is perfect for those who want all the brightening and anti-aging benefits of Vitamin C without the common side effects.

At a concentration of 20%, Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate targets uneven skin tone, dullness, and fine lines by boosting collagen production and neutralizing free radicals.

This unique formulation is ideal for those with dry, sensitive, or mature skin types who want a non-acidic yet potent Vitamin C alternative.
