Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate

Product Description

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate is a stable, oil-soluble derivative of Vitamin C known for its excellent skin penetration and long-lasting antioxidant effects. Unlike water-soluble ascorbic acid, it is more stable and less irritating, making it ideal for sensitive skin formulations. It helps stimulate collagen synthesis, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and brighten skin tone by inhibiting melanin production. Its lipophilic structure allows it to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin, providing enhanced efficacy in anti-aging, whitening, and UV protection skincare products. It is commonly used in serums, creams, and oil-based skincare formulations.
