L-Ascorbic Acid brightens the complexion, reduces dark spots, and stimulates collagen production, while Ferulic Acid provides additional protection against environmental damage. Ectoin further supports skin health by hydrating and strengthening the skin barrier, making the skin more resilient and radiant.
