FAQs

Q1. What form of Vitamin C does Dermatica C-Prime Cream use, and why is it different from pure Ascorbic Acid?
A1. C-Prime uses Ascorbyl Palmitate — an oil-soluble ester of Vitamin C — in a vectorized (microencapsulated) delivery format. Unlike pure Ascorbic Acid, which oxidises rapidly and can cause stinging on sensitive skin, Ascorbyl Palmitate is significantly more stable and gentler, making it suitable for daily use without the yellowing or irritation common with L-ascorbic acid serums. The encapsulation allows controlled release for sustained antioxidant activity rather than a single burst that dissipates quickly.

Q2. How does Pomegranate Oil in C-Prime Cream benefit the skin?
A2. Pomegranate Seed Oil is rich in punicic acid (an omega-5 fatty acid) and ellagic acid, both of which have documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Punicic acid supports the skin's lipid barrier and has been studied for its ability to stimulate keratinocyte proliferation — effectively supporting skin regeneration. In C-Prime Cream, it complements the brightening action of Ascorbyl Palmitate by nourishing the skin matrix while the Vitamin C addresses surface discolouration.

Q3. Can Dermatica C-Prime Cream fade post-acne marks and sun-induced pigmentation?
A3. Yes. Ascorbyl Palmitate inhibits tyrosinase — the enzyme driving melanin production — which helps gradually reduce the appearance of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and sun spots. Glycyrrhiza Glabra (licorice) root extract adds to this effect with glabridin, another tyrosinase inhibitor. Consistent twice-daily use for 6–8 weeks is typically needed to see visible improvement in pigmentation.

Q4. Is C-Prime Cream suitable for use in the morning, evening, or both?
A4. It is formulated as a morning antioxidant product — applied in the morning, Vitamin C primes the skin to neutralise the free radicals generated by UV and pollution exposure throughout the day. It can also be used in the evening for brightening support, but its antioxidant benefit is most valuable as a pre-sun application. Always follow with SPF in the morning.

Q5. How does Dermatica C-Prime Cream differ from Dermatica Rejuva C?
A5. C-Prime uses Ascorbyl Palmitate (oil-soluble, stable ester form) in a cream base — better for drier skin types, more stable, gentler, and designed for all-day antioxidant delivery. Rejuva C uses pure Ascorbic Acid (L-ascorbic acid), the most potent and fastest-acting form of Vitamin C, in a formulation suited to those who want maximum brightening efficacy and tolerate it well. If you are new to Vitamin C or have reactive skin, C-Prime is the better starting point.
