A study published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology showed that at a 30% concentration, it brightens skin tone and improves skin firmness. However, studies also showed that so far, there is no other form of vitamin C as potent as ascorbic acid, the natural form of vitamin C found in plants.
