etherified derivative of ascorbic acid whitening agent Ethyl Ascorbic Acid

Ethyl Ascorbic Acid

Short Description:

Cosmate®EVC,Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is considered to be the most desirable form of Vitamin C as it is highly stable and non-irritating and hence readily used in skincare products. Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is the ethylated form of ascorbic acid,it makes Vitamin C more soluble in oil and water. This structure improves the stability of the chemical compound in the skin care formulations because of its reducing ability.

    Cosmate®EVC,Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, also named as 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid or 3-O-Ethyl-Ascorbic Acid, is an etherified derivative of ascorbic acid,this type Viatmin C  consists of vitamin C and is of an ethyl group bound to the third carbon place. This element makes vitamin c stable and soluble not only in water but also in oil. Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is considered to be the most desirable form of Vitamin C derivatives as it is highly stable and non-irritating .

    Cosmate®EVC,Ethyl Ascorbic Acid which is a stable form of Vitamin C easily penetrates into the layers of the skin and during the absorption process, the ethyl group is removed from the ascorbic acid and thus Vitamin C or Ascorbic Acid is absorbed into the skin in its natural form. Ethyl Ascorbic Acid in personal care products’formulation provides you with all the beneficial properties of Vitamin C.

    Cosmate®EVC,Ethyl Ascorbic Acid with additional properties in stimulating nerve cell growth and minimizing chemotherapy damage,releasing all the befeficail properties of Vitamin C which makes your skin bright and radiant,removes the dark spots and blemishe,it gently erases your skin wrinkles and fine lines making younger appearance.

    Cosmate®EVC,Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is an effective whitening agent and anti-oxidant that is metabolized by the human body in same manner as regular vitamin C. Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant but cannot be dissolved in any other organic solvents. Because it is structurally unstable, Vitamin C has limited applications. Ethyl Ascorbic Acid dissolves in a variety of solvents including water, oil and alcohol and therefore can be mixed with any prescribed solvents. It can be applied to suspension, cream, lotion, serum. water-oil compound lotion, lotion with solid materials, masks, puffs and sheets.

    Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a powerful and versatile ingredient in skincare, offering many of the benefits of Vitamin C without the instability and irritation associated with pure ascorbic acid.It’s a great choice for achieving brighter, more even-toned skin while protecting against environmental damage.Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a modified form of ascorbic acid, where an ethyl group is attached to the molecule.This modification enhances its stability and skin penetration while allowing it to convert to active Vitamin C in the skin.

    Benefits in Skincare:

    Brightening: Effectively reduces hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production.

    Antioxidant Protection: Neutralizes free radicals caused by UV exposure and environmental pollutants, preventing oxidative stress and premature aging.

    Collagen Synthesis: Stimulates collagen production, improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

    Stability: Highly stable in formulations, even in the presence of light, air, and water, making it less prone to oxidation compared to pure ascorbic acid.

    Penetration: Its molecular structure allows for better penetration into the skin, ensuring effective delivery of Vitamin C benefits.

    Key Advantages Over Other Vitamin C Derivatives:

    High Stability: Unlike pure ascorbic acid, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid remains stable in a wide range of pH levels and formulations.

    Superior Penetration: Its small molecular size and lipid-soluble nature allow it to penetrate the skin more effectively.

    Gentle on Skin: Less likely to cause irritation compared to pure ascorbic acid, making it suitable for sensitive skin types.

    Potent Brightening: Considered one of the most effective Vitamin C derivatives for reducing hyperpigmentation and improving skin radiance.
