Dr Dennis Gross Vitamin C + Lactic Dewy Deep Cream | MECCA

Key ingredients

3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: most effective stabilized form of vitamin C—maintains its acidic properties to penetrate deep into the skin,

working on both the hydro-and lipophilic phases of the cell to minimize and prevent the appearance of hyperpigmentation, fine lines

and wrinkles.

Lactic acid: gently loosens the bonds between epidermal cells to exfoliate skin’s surface. It also naturally hydrates, reducing trans

epidermal water loss (TEWL) through the stimulation of ceramides and GAGS in skin. Lactic Acid can also serve as a powerful delivery

vehicle for other ingredients, as it increases their penetration into the skin, and thus their efficacy.

Niacinamide: naturally derived from sugarcane—and naturally found in the body—this oil-free lipid lubricates the skin’s surface, replenishes and

strengthens the moisture barrier and prevents TEWL. Its molecular structure mimics a natural component of sebum, allowing it to

penetrate skin completely and synthesize quickly without clogging pores.

Squalane: derived from olives, rice and sugarcane, this high-quality, oil-free lipid is also present in the blood & skin. Its molecular structure

resembles our own skin’s design, which allows it to penetrate the skin completely and synthesize quickly, so it won’t clog pores or leave

behind a greasy residue. Benefits. include strengthening of skin’s barrier integrity and prevention of TEWL.

Made without

Parabens, sulfates and phthalates.
