Glyceryl Ascorbate is a vitamin C derivative produced by binding glycerin to ascorbic acid. It has a vitamin C-like skin-conditioning effect and a convincing luxury sensory texture, making it one of the best vitamin C derivatives for professional cosmetics.
Derivatization with glycerin improves fragile vitamin C's stability against oxidation, so it is now possible to formulate it into cosmetics with confidence. Because Glyceryl Ascorbate inhibits melanin production and has a moisturizing effect, it is suitable for aging-care cosmetics.
Glyceryl Ascorbate enables the development of excellent formulations with a moist, comfortable sensory texture without the unpleasant frictional feel specific to vitamin C. It also allows transparent gel formulations containing vitamin C derivatives.
Unlike vitamin C and its traditional derivatives, Glyceryl Ascorbate Is non-ionic, so it is suitable for applying to gels and emulsions into which it was hard to blend an ionic compound and enables the development of various types of cosmetic formulations.A verification experiment about the sensory texture of Glyceryl Ascorbate was conducted using skin toners. Ten panelists evaluated the sensory texture of skin treated by skin toners with 10% of this ingredient or a popular Vitamin C derivative. They gave 2 points to a better evaluation item or 1 point to each item when they felt the same sensory texture.
