Proven Results + Responsible Testing: Every Bioelements formula is clinically proven to provide results. We conduct dermatologist testing, and many formulas have strict consumer perception testing by 3rd party experts to quantify benefits. We cite independent clinical evaluations of ingredients, and in-vitro + in-vivo testing to validate claims where applicable. And, we follow strict formula quality control via stability + clinical testing to ensure safety, effectiveness and performance. We never test on animals.

“We solved the vitamin C puzzle. Bioelements vc10 collection delivers 24-hour benefits without the typical drawbacks of vitamin C: no irritation thanks to a skin-friendly pH of 5-6, no instability because the active center of the ascorbic acid molecule is only activated by enzymes in the skin, and no unpleasant odor — just pure, stable, visible results."

– Beth Bialko, esthetician and Bioelements Senior Director of Education

• Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate: A stable sodium salt of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) helps brighten skin by targeting melanin + damaging free radicals. Improves intensity of age spots and helps to increase the feel of firmness.
• Ascorbyl Glucoside: A highly stabilized vitamin C derivative with a prolonged release period to target melanin and improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation, wrinkles and roughness. Along with sodium ascorbyl phosphate, it helps support collagen performance.
• Lactobacillus/Acerola Cherry Ferment: A natural alternative source of vitamin C. This super fruit has a vitamin C content 65x greater than an orange, and has the highest antioxidant activity level of fruits with over 150 phyto-nutrients + a multitude of minerals to brighten and promote radiance.

3% Niacinamide: To spot target hyperpigmentation, irregular discoloration and inhibit PIH and melasma. 

Tranexamic Acid: A synthetic ingredient derived from the amino acid lysine that is shown to suppress melanogenesis (production of melanin). Suitable for all skin types, it can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and brighten dark spots.

Phenylethyl Resorcinol: Nature-inspired, derived from a powerful molecule naturally occurring in pine trees. Acting at the source of skin pigmentation, it's clinically proven to brighten skin tone, treat uneven skin, and reduce UV-induced pigmentation.
