What Is ZO 10% Vitamin C Self-Activating?

ZO 10% Vitamin C Self-Activating is a product from an award-winning skincare line, ZO Skin Health. 

Activated on contact with the skin’s natural water barrier, this water-free formula provides a potent dose of vitamin C – an ingredient well known for its antioxidant properties.
