Ascorbyl Glucoside - Vitamin C

Ascorbyl glucoside is a great alternative to more traditional forms of vitamin C like L-ascorbic acid. Ascorbyl glucoside is more stable, easier to formulate with, and tends to be gentler on skin. In vivo studies demonstrate that once absorbed into the skin, it converts to ascorbic acid, offering many of the same benefits of vitamin C. This powerhouse nutrient is an antioxidant, and it’s hydrating to the skin. Well hydrated skin looks better and healthier! This product is water soluble, and should be added to the water phase of emulsified products. Ascorbyl glucoside is a great way to add that special something to your DIY skincare products.
