After cleansing and before applying your other products, dispense a small amount of your preferred water-free serum, moisturizer, or cream into the palm of your hand. Add a tiny scoop (no more than ¼–⅓ of the provided spoon) of L-Ascorbic Acid powder and mix together thoroughly until dissolved. Apply the mixture to the face and neck in the morning or evening. Begin by using a very small amount once daily, gradually increasing frequency and amount as your skin builds tolerance. Do not use the powder directly on skin, and do not mix with water-based serums or water alone, as this can cause a very low pH and potential irritation. A slight, temporary tingling sensation may be felt. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day. Patch testing prior to first use is essential.
