Can I use Ascorbic Acid with Glucosylrutin?
Works well together
Ascorbic Acid and Glucosylrutin are generally compatible and can be layered in the same routine. As always, introduce one new active at a time and watch how your skin responds.

GlucosylrutinAntioxidant
- ✓Enzymatically modified rutin with an added glucose molecule that dramatically improves water solubility versus native rutin, allowing use in water-based formulas
- ✓Strong antioxidant activity from the flavonoid rutin backbone — scavenges reactive oxygen species and reduces UV-induced skin damage
- ✓Improves capillary fragility and reduces redness — rutin has well-documented vascular-protective (vitamin P-like) activity
