The Ordinary´s simple explanation. 100% L-Ascorbic Acid Powder is a very fine powder (that comes with the cutest little spoon) which targets uneven tone, signs of ageing and dullness. This powder can be mixed into any of your treatments (that are not highly acidic, contain Niacinamide, peptides or EUK 134) for a boost of Vitamin C.

How & When Do I Use The Ordinary L-Ascorbic Acid Powder

Firstly, if you are new to skincare and/or vitamin C, I would recommend starting with a vitamin C serum that doesn´t need mixing. But the choice is, of course, yours.

Following the official instructions on The Ordinary website, you can mix a small amount of L-Ascorbic Acid Powder with other serums/moisturizers in your hand and then apply it to your face. You must check conflicts first, as you need to avoid mixing and using this powder with conflicting products.

This powder can be used in the morning or evening. Please note that this is a high-strength product, so you may experience a tingling sensation.

The Ordinary recommends mixing L-Ascorbic Acid with The Ordinary Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3%. You can also mix L-Ascorbic Acid with hyaluronic acid, marine hyaluronics, or your moisturizer.

The Ordinary L-Ascorbic Acid Powder Reviews

“Ascorbic Acid powder is, so far, my favourite Vitamin C product in the Deciem lineup (and I’ve tried a few). I can feel it working, giving my skin a nice glow in the mornings I use it. My favourite part is the “mad scientist” moment I get mixing my powder with my serums. It took me a while to get the right consistency, but now that I have it down pat, I can’t imagine using anything else.” – Tracy

“100% L Ascorbic Acid is my favourite vitamin C product. It’s adaptable, cheap, and always fresh. One jar lasts for months”. – Nia

“Ascorbic Acid Powder is my favourite treatment of all the skincare I’ve tried. Mixed with an antioxidant, you glow. Makes other vitamin C products obsolete.” – Rachael

“I love it! Mix this every morning with TO ha+b5. On my third pot. I have rosacea, and when I have a flare-up, I have to pause this or diminish the amount of powder. But it works great on overall skin appearance and brightens the skin”. – N.M.R.P.

“Hated it at first, but after watching a few YouTube product reviews, I realized I’d been using way too much. The scoop provided isn’t a great measure of how much you need- start with just a fraction of that. I blend it into another oil-based antioxidant serum and apply it lightly. Great product!” – E.S.

“I mix my L-Ascorbic Acid with rosewater and then top it with The Ordinary Rose Hip Seed Oil to seal it in and prevent it from oxidizing. It made a huge difference to my acne when I started it. It feels like it’s mildly exfoliating.” – A.W.

“I accidentally used this initially with niacinamide and had the worst burning reaction. But I love it now and use a quarter of the scoop with jojoba oil every other day. I have hyperpigmentation, and this has really helped to noticeably brighten my skin tone.” – K.S.

“I love L-Ascorbic Acid Powder so much! I mix it with Resveratrol & Ferulic Acid. It’s a huge help in fading acne scars, brightening up the skin. I can feel my skin getting softer and supple.” – C.M.
