Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate, or ascorbyl tetra-2-hexyldecanoate, is a newly developed esterified derivative from Vitamin C with the highest stability among all Vitamin C derivatives. It can be absorbed transdermally and transferred into Vitamin C effectively; it can inhibit the synthesis of Melanin and remove the existing Melanin; accordingly, it activates collagen tissue directly at the skin base, accelerates collagen production and prevents skin ageing. In addition, it plays the role of an anti-inflammatory agent and antioxidant. It is suitable for all types of skincare, especially where whitening, brightening, detoxifying and purification properties are required. It is also effective at reducing redness and skin irritation. Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate is oil soluble and ideal for anhydrous and emulsions products such as creams, lotions and milks - but can also be incorporated into water-based gels, sprays, serums and solutions.
