Product Description: Vitasome AGS is a natural vitamin C stabilized with glucose. This combination allows the benefits of vitamin C to be conveniently and effectively used in cosmetic products. When creams or lotions containing Vitasome AGS are applied to the skin, an enzyme called alpha-glucosidase, present in the skin, acts on the Vitasome AGS to slowly release the healthful benefits of vitamin C.
