iVIT ETHYL C

INCI Name (US): 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid

INCI Name (EU): 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid


CAS #: 86404-04-8

General Information/ 3-O-Ethyl-L-Ascorbic Acid, or Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a molecule


Characteristics: produced by modifying Ascorbic Acid, commonly known as Vitamin
C. This modification is done to increase the molecule’s stability and
enhance its transport through skin, as pure Vitamin C is easily
degraded. In the body, the modifying group is removed and
Vitamin C is restored in its natural form. Thus, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid
retains the benefits of Vitamin C, such as antioxidant activity.
Furthermore, it is even more potent in reducing skin darkening
after UV exposure. It even has some additional effects, not
observed in pure Ascorbic Acid, such as promoting nerve cell
growth or reducing chemotherapy damage. Finally, the slower
release also ensures that no toxic effects are observed when using
this Vitamin C derivative.

Benefits / Application: • Stimulate collagen production


• Lightening & brightening
• Treat hyperpigmentation
• Sun damage protection
Used for the cosmetics industry. Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is classified
as skin conditioning

Regulatory Status: No specific regulation
