Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant that supports collagen synthesis, brightens uneven tone, and defends skin from daily oxidative stress.
In skin biology, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an essential co-factor for collagen production and one of the most studied antioxidants for visible radiance. Matriskin’s biotechnology approach stabilises vitamin C, improves delivery, and reduces irritation—so you see brighter, firmer, more even-looking skin with excellent tolerance.
How Vitamin C Works in the Skin
Vitamin C helps your skin perform three critical functions:
- Collagen co-factor: Supports enzymes (prolyl & lysyl hydroxylase) that stabilise collagen, helping improve firmness and smoothness.
- Antioxidant defense: Neutralises free radicals from UV, pollution, and stress to reduce oxidative dullness and premature signs of aging.
- Tone correction: Modulates excess melanin formation (via tyrosinase interference) to visibly brighten and even the look of dark spots.
“Vitamin C only works where it arrives in an active state. Stability + delivery matter. “
How Matriskin Improves Vitamin C Stability, Delivery, and Tolerance
Matriskin applies biotechnology and biomimicry so vitamin C stays active and reaches where it’s needed—without harsh pH:
1) Stabilised multi-vitamin C complex: A blend of stabilised derivatives provides sustained antioxidant action and tone-evening with lower irritation than low-pH L-ascorbic acid alone.
2) Biomimetic delivery context: Encapsulation and peptide-linked transport mirror skin’s own chemistry, improving penetration to fibroblasts and reducing surface oxidation.
3) Synergy with HA + peptides: Hyaluronic acid maintains a hydrated matrix while biomimetic peptides support structural renewal—amplifying vitamin C’s firming and brightening benefits.
IN ESSENCE
Stabilised, biomimetically-delivered vitamin C gives brighter tone, firmer feel, and daily antioxidant defense—with excellent tolerance.
Vitamin C — Research Highlights
Dermatological literature consistently associates topical vitamin C with:
- Brighter tone & spot reduction: Supports a more uniform look by moderating excess melanin.
- Firmness & smoothness: Collagen support for a bouncier, refined texture.
- Daily defense: Antioxidant protection from pollution and UV-induced oxidative stress.
- Synergy: Works especially well with HA (hydration), peptides (matrix support), and sunscreen (daytime protection).
Who Benefits from Vitamin C
- Uneven tone, dark spots, or dullness.
- Early loss of firmness and visible fine lines.
- Urban/pollution exposure or high UV environments.
- Post-breakout marks that linger.
How to Use Vitamin C
Apply vitamin C serum to clean, dry skin in the morning (and/or evening). Follow with hydrating layers (HA), barrier-supportive cream, and SPF by day. Matriskin’s stabilised system is designed for high performance at skin-friendly pH with excellent tolerance.
