Title: Making Vitamin C , should i use glycerin?
Post by: tone on October 17, 2010, 09:45:08 PM

hey sarah, i read youre instructions on how to make my own vit c.....however i also looked at other sites and they mention using glycerin as well as L ascorbic acid....

here are the instructions

1

Place 1/4 tsp. of L ascorbic acid in a small glass container.

2

Add 1 tsp. distilled water and mix with a glass stirrer. Stir the mixture until you're sure the L ascorbic acid is completely dissolved into the water.

3

Stir in 1 tsp. glycerin and blend well.

4

Put the vitamin C serum in a small, dark colored, sealable jar.

5

Apply the vitamin C serum every night before bed to start with. If your skin tolerates the vitamin C, gradually increase the usage to twice daily.

also do i boil the water?

and do i have to keep the vit c refrigerated?

You can apply it how you prefer, even with your bare hands, after having washed your hands.
