A stable derivative of vitamin C. It is oil-soluble which means it is more likely to penetrate the skin compared to the pure form of vitamin C (which is water-soluble), but it is less bio-available and is way less effective in stimulating collagen and reducing wrinkles compared to the pure form of vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and its other derivatives (for example, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate). At the same time, this vitamin C derivative has been shown in studies to be effective in reducing acne, blemishes and clogged pores. It is less irritating then the pure form of vitamin C

Clinical trials review

2010
Number of participants Participants Interventions Punchline
50 Fifty adult subjects with acne ages 18–39 were enrolled in this study. After the specified washout period, study subjects were randomized to receive APS lotion or vehicle lotion. Study subjects were instructed to apply a quarter-sized amount of the provided lotion evenly onto the affected area twice daily for 12 weeks. Subjects were provided with a gentle cleanser to cleanse with twice daily. Subjects were instructed to avoid excessive sun exposure during the course of the trial. Additionally, they were instructed to apply the provided moisturizer with sunscreen as needed for dryness and ⁄ or sun protection. APS 5% lotion demonstrated statistically significant improvement when com- pared to vehicle in all of the parameters measured. The adverse event frequency and cutaneous tolerability profile for APS 5% lotion were similar to vehicle.
