The Ordinary Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2% (30 ml) is a water-free, oil-free serum that combines two potent brightening agents to target uneven skin tone, dark spots, and signs of aging. It features 8% pure ascorbic acid (vitamin C) for antioxidant protection and radiance, alongside 2% alpha arbutin to reduce hyperpigmentation and discoloration. The anhydrous formula enhances stability, though it may feel slightly oily upon application despite being oil-free. Suitable for all skin types, it is vegan, cruelty-free, and free from alcohol, silicones, and gluten. Apply a few drops to the face in the morning and evening, avoiding the eye area, and use sun protection during the day. Some users have reported irritation or texture issues, so patch testing is recommended.
