How familiar are you with the role of skincare ingredients such as vitamin C?

Aside from consuming foods that are rich in vitamin C, topical application also works well to brighten your skin, being an effective anti-oxidant, reduce redness, boost skin collagen to keep skin firm, and much more!

Plus, did you know that vitamin C works best when paired with certain skincare ingredients? For example, Hyaluron has great moisturising properties when used in skincare.

With all its benefits, we can clearly see why this vitamin is highly regarded by many beauty enthusiasts. However, not all vitamin skincare are the same. Finding skincare products that are effective and contain a healthy concentration of vitamin C can often prove difficult.

That's why leading skincare brand NIVEA has engaged with over 100 Malaysians to test the efficacy of its cold-extracted vitamin C

For this test, the iodine's dark colour will turn clear in the presence of active vitamin C. This means if the colour stays dark or light brown, there is a high chance the vitamin C is not potent enough or it has been exposed to oxidation. Thus, the objective of this experiment is to observe the presence of active vitamin C and how it reacts to iodine.

Let's take a look and see how some of these iodine experiments turned out:

Pretty amazing, right? From the videos above, we can see that NIVEA Extra Bright C&HYA's cold-extracted vitamin C turns the iodine water clear almost immediately. The experiment shows that NIVEA Extra Bright C&HYA has a more potent content of vitamin C, and is packed with anti-oxidants.

The secret lies in its formulation method, as NIVEA Extra Bright C&HYA uses cold-extraction technology that is able to extract vitamin C without heat, thus preserving all the good-for-your-skin, beneficial vitamins and nutrients while ensuring maximum skin efficacy.

FYI, the iodine test is SIRIM certified, which further solidifies the efficacy of cold-extracted vitamin C compared to oxidised vitamin C.

With this in mind, NIVEA has formulated their brand new cleanser with cold-extracted vitamin C and 3X Hyaluron, which detoxifies, brightens, and hydrates the skin

The cold extraction process of orange essence ensures the essential nutrients are well preserved, as the process pulls nutrients from ingredients without high heat.

In fact, according to the SIRIM-certified iodine test, the NIVEA Extra Bright C&HYA Vitamin Whip Foam is able to detox the skin and deep clean with a 94.27% reduction in sebum on the skin after cleansing,* woah!

Designed to deeply cleanse dirt and reduce pore appearance, this foam-based cleanser promises a refreshing and invigorating cleansing experience, while providing essential vitamins to the skin.

With the combination of nature and science, NIVEA's Extra Bright C&HYA Vitamin Whip Foam will leave your skin feeling dewy, healthy, and supple

The 3x molecular size Hyaluron allows the cleanser to act on different layers of the skin, as well as promote the production of your own skin's Hyaluron for long lasting moisture, as well as soft and bouncy skin.

You can also rest assured that the Extra Bright C&HYA Vitamin Whip Foam is suitable for all skin tones and types, as it is gentle to skin, non-comedogenic, and formulated with no alcohol or silicone.

When using it, all you gotta do is apply it onto wet hands, and work up a lather with water to create a rich, foamy texture. Next, massage it on your face while avoiding the eyes. Finally, rinse it all off, and you're done!

Psst, NIVEA's foam cleanser is part of a range of C&HYA skincare products that includes essence water, serum, day cream, and night sleeping gel!
