World's Most Potent Natural Vitamin C Source for Antioxidant-Powered Radiance

C-Defense™ harnesses Terminalia Ferdinandiana Fruit Extract — the Kakadu Plum — an indigenous Australian superfruit documented as the world's richest known natural source of L-ascorbic acid, containing up to 7,000 mg/100g: approximately 100× the Vitamin C concentration of an orange.

Beyond its extraordinary L-ascorbic acid content, C-Defense™ delivers ellagic acid, flavonoids, and polyphenols that provide complementary tyrosinase inhibition, anti-inflammatory activity, and broad-spectrum free radical defense — making it one of the most complete natural antioxidant actives available.

Why C-Defense™

• World's highest natural Vitamin C source – up to 7,000 mg/100g; 100× more than oranges
• Multi-mechanism antioxidant defense – L-ascorbic acid, ellagic acid, and polyphenols working together
• Anti-melanogenic activity – ellagic acid inhibits UV-induced melanogenesis via MITF downregulation
• Visibly brightens and evens skin tone – natural complex addresses both oxidative damage and pigmentation
• Clean & globally compliant – plant-derived, vegan, COSMOS-compatible, sustainably harvestable

Formulation Advantages

C-Defense™ is water- and glycol-soluble and most stable at pH 3.5–5.5. Best combined with Ferulic Acid and Vitamin E to stabilize the natural ascorbic acid content and extend antioxidant efficacy. Imparts a characteristic golden tint at higher concentrations — well-suited to natural and clean beauty aesthetics.
