Ascorbyl glucoside is a derivative of vitamin C, which has whitening and anti-aging effects and is one of the important ingredients of cosmetic whitening raw materials.

Has the following effects:

1. Brightens skin tone and inhibits melanin formation

After ascorbyl glucoside is converted into vitamin C and enters skin cells, it can significantly reduce the formation of melanin by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase. Inhibition of tyrosinase reduces dopaquinone, an intermediate in the synthesis of melanin. An added benefit is the simultaneous conversion of dopaquinone to levodopa, which relieves the melanin that has formed, thereby reducing skin pigmentation.

2. Protects against UV damage

Inhibiting the damage to cells caused by ultraviolet radiation After the vitamin C glucoside is converted into vitamin C, it can greatly reduce the free radicals generated by the skin due to ultraviolet radiation, significantly reduce skin damage, and play a role in protecting the skin in sunscreen products

3. Anti-Aging

Promotes collagen synthesis, improves wrinkles and rough skin Collagen is a protein that plays an important role in skin structure and protection. Vitamin C glucoside is converted into collagen synthesis in fibroblasts after vitamin C enters skin cells. It has a noticeable effect on reducing wrinkles and rough skin.
