Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone

Share information about your product.

The Ordinary Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone is the smoother-feeling alternative to the 23% suspension. Light silicones eliminate the gritty texture of the powder format, and the concentration is raised to 30% to offset the slight reduction in delivery that any silicone base causes. If the 23% version's texture put you off, this is the version to try.

🎯 What It Does

• Brightens at high strength — 30% pure L-Ascorbic Acid, the highest Vitamin C concentration in the range
• Reduces hyperpigmentation — works on dark spots and acne scarring
• Softens lines and wrinkles — addresses multiple signs of skin ageing
• Smooths the skin surface — the silicone base has a blurring effect of its own
• Feels comfortable — avoids the short-lived gritty sensation of the 23% formula
• Stays completely stable — water-free formulation keeps the Vitamin C intact

🔬 Key Ingredients

• L-Ascorbic Acid 30% — pure Vitamin C at maximum concentration
• Light Silicones (Dimethicone, Polysilicone-11) — create a smooth feel without heavily entrapping the Vitamin C

📋 How to Use

1. Apply a small amount after toners and water-based products.
2. Best used at bedtime.
3. If irritation occurs, dilute with a cream or serum to reduce strength.

What to expect. A tingling sensation is normal during the first one to two weeks while your skin builds tolerance. Note that even with light silicones, this base offers slightly less efficient Vitamin C exposure than the silicone-free 23% formula — the higher 30% concentration is there to compensate.
