NOW FoodsSupplements, Vitamin C Crystals (Ascorbic Acid), Antioxidant Protection*, 3-Pound

Me encanta esta Vitamina en polvo se disuelve totalmente y el sabor es acidito, no trae medidor pero no es problema porque tengo una cucharita de medir que es exacto lo que debo de tomar diario. Super recomendado.

This, suspended in one other easily attainable product, may be the best , most effective skin care product of all. This is not simply my own, scientific opinion, but also that of very famous television personalities with whom you are undoubtedly familiar.A whole host of articles refer to two facial products which when mixed together produce the equivalent of professional facial procedures, taking ten years off your appearance. The Dr O- show made the lady who discovered the magic mixture famous. So many companies barged into the fray, claiming that their products are those mentioned on the landmark show that the crooks outnumber the legitimate companies. Some offer "free" trials which as we all know are never free, and some of them are identity theft traps as my bank informed me after I fell for one company's beautiful ads, fake comparison studies, before and after photos and fantastic claims. In the end, the "magic " products actually responsible for remarkable skin texture, tone and clarity Dr O reveals, are defined as two simple elements, not any of the $150.00 per 1/2 oz mixtures at all, but Vitamin C and hyaluronic acid.Even knowing which two ingredients to buy leaves one in a quandary because now there are hundreds of vitamin c serums claiming to be "the one" "pure" product. And of course the price varies from the approachable drugstore shelf serum to the estheticians office potions only the rich and famous ( and the desperate) can afford.I have relied on Timeless pure hyaluronic acid for years because it doesn't cause weeping eyes , running nose and blotchy skin with hives. I never realized just how beneficial it is, only that it holds 1000 times its own weight in water and I have dry skin and live in a beautiful city built on reclaimed desert. (it's not perfect either, there are real issues even with this staple brand, but it is less harmful than the others I've tried including the #1 seller on Amazon). "Now" brand has never disappointed me in any of the many products I've tried. Two squirts of Timeless hyaluronic acid, a tiny scoop of Now Vitamin C swirled around in it and the combination then applied to the skin is the purest, safest method available IMHO. Yes, it takes a few seconds for the crystals to dissolve but they do dissolve and if you can't take a tiny bit of grittiness for a few seconds boo hoo on ya. Most of us use microabrasives, with and without electric devices, to exfoliate with and we spend a lot of money on them, even Philosophy's, and are convinced of the value of doing so. This method circumvents the problem the snake oil salesmen struggle with and that is the rapid degradation of pure vitamin c once it hits the air. You'll know your premixed , multi-ingredient product is worthless, dead, when it turns yellow. That's when all you're putting on your face are the preservatives and purposeless fillers.Back to the point. After searching for weeks for a vitamin c serum at a concentration of 20 % or more and buying serums advertised as pure which actually have the wrong form of vitamin c and that in minute, useless concentrations, I have my answer. Of course, now I remember mother rubbing fresh cut lemons on our faces and the fact that we had gorgeous, blemish free skin while she was in charge, and I know that this is a forever amen regimen for me. I could care less about looking ten years younger . I love the fact that my skin loves vitamin c and hyaluronic acid and looks healthier than it has in all the years I trolled the cosmetics counters. And boy do I wish I had all that wasted money back!The quest, now that the workhorse items are cemented, (Elite Xtra strength peptide serum being the third of the triad), is for a healthy moisturizer that doesn't leave one looking like an oil slick like Cetaphil cream (still so fabulous a product that it is distributed by prescription by some large medical organizations) or straight up argon oil, great when nobody's looking. If anyone has a suggestion for a nonallergenic ( not hypoallergenic but nonallergenic) , nourishing, but matte moisturizer , I would truly welcome the assistance.Again I have to say thanks to Amazon for making all of these choices available to all of us, the mobile and disabled alike, the rich and the normal working stiff. I only have one compliant and that is that I wish Amazon would force these cosmetics companies to list their ingredients, in decreasing order of concentration and in American English so that we know exactly what we're buying and can make better informed purchases. Yes, I'm still fuming about that vitamin c, hyaluronic acid product, the number one seller , that is really water and aloe vera with tiny amounts of active ingredients, thrown in with the unnecessary additives, preservatives and irritants ,to fake legitimacy and still turn an enormous profit margin.

I use a tablespoon of this in a zip lock bag, fill it with water when I am in the shower. I put my swim suit in and let it soak while I shower. This neutralizes the chlorine and keeps the suit from breaking down from the pool chlorine. This keeps my swimwear like new for many years.

I use these c crystals at canning time to keep my fruits from browning. I figure they also help add c since canning typically destroys vitamins. Super easy to dissolve in water, I use this every canning season, and also add some to my apple pie filling before I freeze it.

The NOW Foods Supplements, Vitamin C Crystals makes it easy to take my vitamins. I just add it to my smoothie in the morning and I don't even taste it.I like that this is a powder and is easy to take. I was having a hard time taking capsules for Vitamin C because it seemed like they were so big I kept getting them caught in my throat. So I was really happy to find this product.The cap fits tightly and it doesn't get clumpy. And it lasts a long time, so it is good value for the money.It really helps me from catching all the illnesses that other people seem to get. When I do feel like I am trying to catch something I take it more often during the day and it seems to ward it off.I am very happy with this product and will continue to purchase it. If you are looking for a brand of Vitamin C to try, I highly recommend this one.

I’m not actually using them as a supplement. Add a teaspoon of the crystals a to a pint of water, mix well (takes a bit of work) and you have a solution (ok, technically a suspension) that will neutralize pool chlorine on hair and skin. I mix it in a spray bottle and spray my hair and skin after teaching water exercise. It takes away the chlorine smell, leaving a mildly metallic smell that rinses off pretty easily. My hair does not get dry and brittle from the chlorine when I’m using this regularly. Using a very fine-mist sprayer designed for hair stylists, the pint of water is more than enough to cover my hair and body.

The product is exactly what's advertised. I use it externally to neutralize chlorine on my skin after a swim. So for my purposes it works great.

I use this with face wash as an exfoliation treatment and it's fabulous. When I don't use it my pores get clogged. Don't put on retinol or any acids immediately after scrubbing with this and I don't do this daily - maybe 2/3 times a week
