Not sure, maybe. The two mixed together would form silver ascorbate, which I suspect, but have no proof of, is photosensitive, which may or may not be a factor. But it is likely that it would quickly reduce and aggregate, which would darken the skin, but being topical, would over time slough off with the epidermis.

I just checked and my big toes also have grey nail beds, not nearly as dark or noticeable as my fingernails, just mild but definitely there, those are my only toes affected.

So Marshall, do you believe my grey face was just a surface chemical reaction between the topical vit C and topical CS? Sunlight probably didn't darken/worsen it? Because it took a while to fade after I stopped the vit C products, I had thought it must have penetrated at least a little way below the skin surface, but maybe the time it took to go away was just the time it takes for all the affected surface cells to slough off?
What do you think?
thanks,
sol

As far as the toenails are concerned, my big toe and long toe show blue moons, but my 3 smallest ones don't that I can see. But I am getting too old to be able to pull my foot up in front of my face like when I was young. I am not sure what you are saying about sunlight, that has absolutely nothing to do with silver accumulation in the nail and bed, that only applies to the skin as I have explained several times before.
