Ferulic acid stabilizes a solution of vitamins C and E and doubles its photoprotection of skin -- see http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16185284

What they both do is stabilize vitamin C and extend it's effectiveness. Since they're both antioxidants in their own right they also increase the effectiveness of the serum that way as well. Win, win all around.

I ordered this product because of the vitamin C & E and wasn't sure what ferulic acid was but assumed it was similar to glycolic acid which helps exfoliate the skin. I have oily skin that is prone to breakouts but this product worked great on my skin, I would put this on at night and in the morning my skin tone looked better and had a glow. I have also tried the more expensive Vitamin C type products but really liked this one and ordering my second bottle of it.

The most important use of ferulic acid on the serum is to stabilize the vit C and A so that they are effective once applied to the skin. The benefit to the skin is antioxidant benefits and a bit of protection against sun damage. It is a plant base substance found in fruits and vegetables.

It extends the life of Vitamin C which will lighten the dark spots (liver spots) that one gets with age or from too much time spent in the sun un protected. Vitamin C (lemon juice) has been used to lighten these spots for MANY YEARS.

Dear Pinky - I found this item to be very harsh on my skin. I don't use it at all on my face, as was my intention when I bought it. I used it on my legs last summer but have decided I won't do that again this summer because of the harshness to my skin.

Omg too many to list the main ingredient is the alpha hydroxy, glycolic acid. Does sting a little when applied, if skin is sensitive I probably would not use this product

It contains AHA (Alpha hydroxy acid) which irritates my skin. I should have read more carefully and NOT have bought it.

Well my sister and myself are using both this product in conjunction with the B5 gel. First use serum let it absorb the n the gel. Both these companies seem to have the same ingrediants. I just purchased another serum from Delfogo RX and that bottle contains 22% C 8% Ferulic and 2% E. SO I will check this one out as well. Highly respected company as well. I always go online and do my research. Good luck!!

Water, Ammonium Lactate, Sodium Lactate, Potassium Lactate, Mineral Oil, Petrolatum, Emulsifying Wax, Glycerin, Propylane Glycol, Stearic Acid, Xanthan Gum, Methylparaban, Propylparaban. My GP recommended this product to me for my feet and I first ordered the cream because the lotion was thin. Now I see why my daughter told me not to use this on my face...although I do apply it to my hands, as well as the lotion which this past time was thicker.

Glycolic acid stimulates collagen production and could irritate hypertrophic scars since it is living tissue. Glycolic is best at fading post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation which are not necessarily scars. If hypertrophic scars are your problem, then glycolic acid probably won't be worth your time or money.

I am not sure about that. But from my experience it is very good to treat very rough skin patches like in case of eczema. I even put it on skin rash and it disappeared. Makes lips very soft too when applied.

Free radicals are responsible for causing premature skin ageing. This results in the appearance of wrinkles, sun spots and loss of elasticity. The antioxidants contained in caffeine can attack these free radicals and eliminate them. This will improve the overall look of your skin. Studies have indicated that caffeine may also repair the skin damage caused by exposure to UV rays. It is considered a stronger antioxidant than the polyphenols contained in green tea. In fact, it is among the best and strongest antioxidants to combat UV damage. Another added benefit of caffeine is that its topical use can tighten fine lines and smooth puffy skin. Caffeine used in creams is absorbed by your skin to firm and tighten its appearance. It also inhibits the growth of skin cancer cells. Beauty products often include caffeine as it can provide you with a flawless appearance. I got all this info here http://www.stylecraze.com/articles/amazing-benefits-of-caffeine-for-skin-hair-and-health/. I have no idea how much of it gets absorbed. It doesn't make me jittery like caffeine in soda does, so it's probably not very much.

The active ingredient is Retinol which causes a slight tingling on my face, I have normal skin. If you experience burning, you should discontinue use. You should also be careful to use this product alone on clean skin as if it is combined with some other products that also have an anti age active ingredient it will increase the sensation which could be described as a burning sensation
