Ethyl ascorbic acid is a water-soluble lipophilic vitamin C derivative, which not only makes it very easy to use in formulas, but also makes it easy to penetrate into the dermis of the stratum corneum, and it is easy to break into the skin. The down will exert vitamin C through enzymes.

 It can improve its bioavailability, while ordinary vitamin C is difficult to be absorbed through the skin, and its bioavailability is very low.

Vitamin C ethyl ether is a very useful vitamin C derivative. 

It is not only very stable chemically, it is a non-discoloring vitamin C derivative, and it is a lipophilic and hydrophilic amphoteric substance, which greatly expands its Scope of application, especially in daily chemicals. 3-O-Ethyl ascorbic acid ether can easily enter the dermis through the stratum corneum. 

After entering the body, it is easily decomposed by biological enzymes in the body to exert the biological effects of vitamin C.

Benefits of Ethyl Ascorbic Acid.

use

Vitamin C ethyl ether (VC ethyl ether) is a lipophilic and hydrophilic amphoteric vitamin C derivative. It not only retains the redox effect of vitamin C but is also very stable. It is a vitamin C derivative that does not change color, and it It is a lipophilic and hydrophilic substance, which not only makes it extremely convenient to use in formulas, but also makes it easy to penetrate the stratum corneum and enter the dermis. After entering the skin, it is easily decomposed by biological enzymes and plays the role of vitamin C, thereby improving Its bioavailability.

Mechanism

VC ethyl ether penetrates the stratum corneum directly to the melanocytes of the basal layer, inhibits tyrosinase activity, inhibits the formation of melanin, and reduces melanin to colorless, thereby effectively whitening the skin. Moreover, VC ethyl ether can enter the dermis and directly participate in the synthesis of collagen to repair skin cell activity and increase collagen, thereby making the skin plump and elastic, making the skin delicate and smooth. 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic acid may be a useful stabilizer for p-hydroxyacetophenone solutions.

application

3-O-Ethyl ascorbic acid ether (vitamin C ethyl ether) is a substance that is soluble in oil and water, which allows formulators to add it to the oil phase or water phase, or add it at high or low temperatures, making it easy to use. More importantly, this amphiphilic solubility makes it easier to penetrate the stratum corneum and enter the dermis to exert its biological effects, which is something other vitamin C derivatives do not have. It can block the formation of melanin by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase; it has whitening and freckle removal effects (when added at 2%); it resists inflammation caused by sunlight and has strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects; it also improves the dullness of the skin and gives it a The skin is shiny and elastic, repairs skin cell activity, and promotes collagen production.

application

1. Inhibit the activity of tyrosinase by Cu2+ acting on it, blocking the formation of melanin;

2. Very effective in whitening and removing freckles (when added at 2%);

3. Resists inflammation caused by sunlight and has strong antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects;

4. Improve dull and dull skin and give skin elasticity;

5. Repair skin cell activity and promote collagen production.
