FAQ
Q1. Is it available in India, and what's the price?
Ans: Yes — Rudra Retails.in ships the sealed authentic pack (30ml) across India for ₹1,099 with COD available and free delivery over ₹1,499. Every order includes a packing-proof video of your exact unit with the batch code on camera.
Q2. What does The Ordinary Vitamin C Suspension 23% do?
Ans: It targets dullness, uneven tone and early signs of aging with 23% pure L-ascorbic acid — the strongest vitamin C in The Ordinary's lineup — plus 2% dehydrated hyaluronic acid spheres for hydration, in a water-free, silicone-free suspension.
Q3. Why is it so cheap compared to other vitamin C serums?
Ans: The Ordinary's whole model: raw clinical-strength actives, no luxury packaging, no fragrance, no marketing markup. You trade sensory elegance (it's grainy and it tingles) for maximum concentration per rupee — that's the deliberate deal.
Q4. Why does it feel grainy on my skin?
Ans: That's normal — the formula suspends pure vitamin C particles rather than dissolving them, so a slight gritty feel during application is expected. Massage it in; the texture settles. It's the trade-off for a water-free 23% concentration at this price.
Q5. It tingles — is that okay, and can beginners use it?
Ans: A strong tingle in the first weeks is common at 23%. Build tolerance: start 2–3 nights a week, or mix a drop into your moisturizer. If your skin is very sensitive or new to vitamin C, a gentler formula like La Roche-Posay's 12% with neurosensine is the easier on-ramp — this one is for users who want maximum strength.
