Product details

Ascorbyl Palmitate is a fat-soluble form of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) that is created by combining ascorbic acid with palmitic acid, a fatty acid. This esterification process changes its properties, making it:

Fat-Soluble: Unlike pure ascorbic acid (which is water-soluble), ascorbyl palmitate can dissolve in oils. This allows it to penetrate the lipid-rich layers of the skin more effectively and makes it a stable ingredient in oil-based formulations.

More Stable: It is significantly less prone to oxidation and degradation than pure L-ascorbic acid when exposed to air and light. This gives it a much longer shelf life.

Its primary functions are as a potent antioxidant and a stabilizer.

Frequently asked by buyers

Yes, Ascorbyl Palmitate is commonly used in food products to prevent oxidation and extend shelf life, and it is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by major regulatory bodies.

Is Ascorbyl Palmitate beneficial for skincare products?

Yes, due to its antioxidant properties and ability to support collagen synthesis, it is widely incorporated into anti-aging and protective skin formulations.

It should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, ideally below 25°C to maintain its stability and antioxidant potency.
