Feature

Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate VC-IP is an esterified vitamin C derivative. It is converted into vitamin C in the skin and exerts its activity, making its whitening and anti-inflammatory effects more significant. This is because oil-soluble ingredients have better transdermal absorption than water-soluble ingredients.
This ingredient was approved by Japan in 2006 as Quasi-drug Active, and is also a whitening agent approved by South Korea.
Due to its good stability and transdermal absorption performance, VC-IP is widely used in cosmetics and skin care products.

There are many types of vitamin C derivatives, the most common ones are 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid (EAC), vitamin C phosphate, ascorbyl glucoside (AA-2G), ascorbyl palmitate (AA6P), and ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate (VC-IP).

What does ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate do?

1. Inhibit the production of melanin. Black
   On the one hand, VC-IP slows down the production rate of tyrosine by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase. On the other hand, it can convert the already formed melanin into melanin precursor to brighten the skin tone.
2. VC-IP relieves skin inflammation by improving the skin barrier, reducing pro-inflammatory factors and other mechanisms.
3. VCIP can effectively activate cell regeneration.
4. Collagen synthesis and collagen protection.
