Excellent question; actually Dr. Perricone holds the patent on Vitamin C Ester which is a stable and highly absorb able form of Vitamin C. You can learn all about the science in his books and lectures on YouTube.Was this answer helpful to you

It's back!

OMG! The original formula is back! I am so happy! I've been using this since, at least, 1998, and have been hiding my face since the todo with that reformulation. I feel like I can show my face again! Nothing made me happier. I could go without makeup and get compliments on how beautiful and unwrink...

I'm not sure how many jars of this product I have used, but I will never use anything else on my face and neck to prepare me to face the day! I credit this moisturizer for keeping any visible signs of sun damage at bay, and for lightening the spots that had started to appear on my face. It is a perfect base for my foundation, as well, and imparts a subtle glow to the skin. I have mild rosacea, and I am happy to say- at least, in my particular case- this product has not caused any issues at all. I will even throw some on the back of my hands, if I'm in a hurry, and don't want to grab a separate sunscreen for that!

Really nice product. It's a rich, creamy moisturizer with excellent ingredients and provides superior protection. It applies very nicely and isn't sticky and leaves the skin with a beautiful even tone.

Love this moisturizer. I originally tried it because my skin was looking dull and dark. After using it for a few months, I noticed my skin was brighter and discoloration was evening out. Many people had approached me asking what I was doing differently as they had noticed that my skin was bright and appeared to be glowing. This made me want to wear it more! I feel confident wearing this moisturizer without makeup. I have been recommending it to so many family and friends.

I have been a loyal Dr. Perricone satisfied customer for over 20 years. I love this product to add into my regular skin regime. It has properties that help shrink existing sun damage.
