I've been using Cellex-C vitamin C serum for the past few months. I am getting down to the bottom of the bottle, and I was wondering if it was still good. I read somewhere that if I cut an apple in half and put the serum on a small part of the inside of the apple-- that the spot will turn brown in about 20 minutes if oxidized. Well.. the one spot where I put the serum turned significantly brown.
Have I been doing a lot more harm than good? Doesn't oxidized vitamin C stimulate free radicals?? kind of freaking out now because my skin looks worse than usual the past few weeks. |

that apple thing doesn't make sense, since it isn't vitamin c isn't what is turning the apple brown.
the transformation is stopped by lemon juice, etc because of the acid, not the vitamin c. the acid messes with the process that turns the apple brown and stops it. |

| Vitamin C that is still stable and usaable should protect the apple from turning brown. So if your apple turned brown your C is no longer good. |
