Cos De BAHA - Vitamin C Facial Serum with L-Ascorbic Acid 15% with Vitamin B5 - for Fades Age Spots, Smoothing Fine Lines + Dark Spots, Pore Refining, Resurfacing
This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) 21.50% (declared) It can be helpful in stimulating collagen production, neutralizing free radicals in skin and improving pigmentation marks. We recommend to use up this product quickly after opening: Ascorbic Acid degrades fast when it gets in contact with air and light. The moment the product turns orange, it is a sign that a significant share of the vitamin C in it is no longer effective.
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) at about 3.30% - 4.90% concentration. In this concentration, Panthenol works effectively to improve the skin barrier and reduce inflammation.
In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.10% - 1.70%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
Humectants (allantoin 1.10% - 1.70%, sodium lactate 25.00% - 38.00%, sodium hyaluronate 4.60% - 6.80% and panthenol 3.30% - 4.90%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Price
The product retails at around 25.65$ in the United States and for 27.40£ in the United Kingdom.
This product can help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness because
it
contains
ascorbic acid.
Keep in mind that it typically takes at least 6 weeks to notice any results because the changes that are needed
to
improve fine lines and elasticity happen in the deeper layers of the skin. No topical anti-aging product can
“erase”
wrinkles or fully reverse signs of aging.

This product can help reduce hypepigmentation and even out the skin tone because it contains the following
effective ingredients:
ascorbic acid.
Keep in mind that you would need to apply any topical skincare targetted at hypigmentation consistently for a couple of months to get a result. No topical skincare product can help get rid of hyperpigmentation (including post-acne marks and age spots) instantly.

Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
This newly upgraded serum keep skin much more hydrated and absorbed without stickiness.
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called
"humectants":
allantoin, sodium hyaluronate.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This
is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for
ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with
the hydration level: panthenol
Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function

Exfoliation
What does the product description say?
It helps to even out the skin tone and texture by removing dead skin cells.
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients.
It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin.
We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
