Vitamin C, which can also be known as ascorbic acid, is a water soluble vitamin.

Vitamin C is the least stable of all vitamins and it is very sensitive to oxygen. This means its potency can be lost through exposure to light and air. A primary function of Vitamin C in the body is maintaining collagen levels. Collagen is a protein necessary for the formation of connective tissue in the skin, ligaments and bones. How can Vitamin C help us? Vitamin C plays a role in healing wounds and burns. This is because it facilitates the formation of connective tissue in the actual scar.
