This item ships FREE. Save $4.95! Officially known as the Antioxidant Skin Care Derm, the patch represents a radical leap in skin care technology and contains vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that scavenges free radicals, stimulates collagen and helps repair sun damaged skin. This Antioxidant Skin Care Derm uses this delivery technology to immerse and saturate vitamin C into wrinkles around the eyes, forehead, and laugh-line areas. Worn throughout the night, the Derms are most effective if they are applied between six and eight hours. Because the problem area is isolated, the Derms provide maximum antioxidant absorption and impact, and the vitamin C does not evaporate. Vitamin C is unstable when mixed with solution and immediately breaks down when it comes in contact with air or water. When it is in powder form, (ie. in the patch or a tablet), it is completely stable and eliminates the decay of ingredients. Typical creams with vitamin C are virtually ineffective because of atmospheric exposure that causes ingredient decay and degradation. This is why the Derms are the most effective method of delivering vitamin C to the skin. The Osmotics Antioxidant Skin Care Derm is the perfect addition to a regular skin care regime for every woman or man over the age of twenty-five.
