Description

Pure Vitamin C Ascorbyl Palmitate Powder 

Pure Vitamin C Ascorbyl Palmitate Powder is a high purity 99% vitamin C derivative designed for formulators who want antioxidant, brightening and anti ageing benefits in a versatile cosmetic ingredient. Also known as L Ascorbyl Palmitate, it combines ascorbic acid with palmitic acid to create an oil compatible form of vitamin C that is distinctly different from traditional L Ascorbic Acid powder.

From brightening dull looking skin to supporting collagen and defending against environmental stress, this ingredient brings vitamin C into creams, lotions, serums and other cosmetic formulations where an oil compatible derivative is preferred. Available in sizes from 50g to 1kg with free shipping from Everything Keratin, it gives DIY makers and professional formulators plenty of flexibility.

Product benefits

  • Brightens dull looking skin: Helps support a more radiant, fresh and even looking complexion
  • Powerful antioxidant support: Helps protect against oxidative stress caused by everyday environmental exposure
  • Supports collagen: Vitamin C plays an important role in collagen biology, making it valuable in formulations targeting firmness and visible signs of ageing
  • Targets uneven looking tone: Ideal for brightening formulas designed to improve the appearance of dark spots, discolouration and uneven tone
  • Softens signs of ageing: Complements formulations targeting the appearance of fine lines, rough texture and loss of radiance
  • Oil compatible vitamin C: Its lipophilic nature makes it useful in creams, lotions and other formulations where traditional water soluble vitamin C may not be ideal
  • 99% high purity powder: Gives formulators a concentrated vitamin C derivative with the freedom to develop customised cosmetic products

Common uses

Pure Vitamin C Ascorbyl Palmitate Powder can be incorporated into facial creams, lotions, moisturisers, brightening products, anti ageing skincare, antioxidant serums, sun care and after sun formulations, body care, makeup products and selected haircare formulations.

Its oil compatibility makes it particularly interesting for formulators developing lipid containing products and emulsions.

Why formulators choose this ingredient

Not every form of vitamin C behaves the same way.

Traditional L Ascorbic Acid is water soluble, while Ascorbyl Palmitate is an ester of ascorbic acid and palmitic acid with different solubility and formulation properties.

It is well suited to oil phases, emulsions and lipid based cosmetic systems where an oil compatible vitamin C derivative is preferred.

Its concentrated powder format also gives formulators control over texture, supporting ingredients and the final cosmetic formulation.

Frequently asked questions

What is Ascorbyl Palmitate?
Ascorbyl Palmitate is an oil-compatible vitamin C derivative made by combining ascorbic acid with palmitic acid. It is used in cosmetic formulations for its antioxidant and skin conditioning properties.

Is Ascorbyl Palmitate the same as L Ascorbic Acid?
No. L Ascorbic Acid is water soluble, while Ascorbyl Palmitate is an ester with different solubility and formulation properties.

Is Ascorbyl Palmitate water soluble?
No. It is easily soluble in ethanol and methanol but should not be treated as a water-soluble vitamin C powder.

What does Ascorbyl Palmitate do for skincare?
It is an antioxidant vitamin C derivative used in formulations targeting dullness, uneven tone and visible signs of aging.

Can it help brighten skin?
Yes. It is commonly used in formulations designed to promote brighter, more even looking skin.

Can it be used in anti-aging skincare?
Yes. It is well suited to formulations targeting fine lines, dullness and other visible signs of aging.

Can I use the powder directly on my face?
No. This concentrated cosmetic ingredient must be formulated into a finished product before use.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Suitability depends on the finished formulation and concentration. Patch testing is recommended before wider use.

How to use

Steps

  • Use at 5% to 15% in DIY skincare formulations. Dissolve the powder completely in warm distilled water before incorporating it into creams, serums, lotions or face masks.
  • Prepare water based mixtures fresh where possible, as the ingredient can oxidise once dissolved. Discard the mixture if it turns yellow or orange.
  • Compatible with hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, kaolin clay, vegetable glycerine and suitable carrier oils. For topical use only. Patch test before use.

Tip: Mix only what you need for each application when creating simple water based DIY preparations. Keeping the powder dry until needed helps maintain its stability and freshness.

Professional tip

Think of Ascorbyl Palmitate as a formulation alternative to direct L Ascorbic Acid, not a direct substitute used in exactly the same way. Its oil compatible nature can make it useful when developing creams, lotions and emulsions where you want a vitamin C derivative incorporated into a lipid containing system.

For best results, protect both the raw ingredient and finished formulation from unnecessary exposure to light and heat, and always test the stability and compatibility of the complete formula before scaling up.

Pure Vitamin C Ascorbyl Palmitate Powder should be incorporated into a suitable cosmetic formulation according to the formulation method and intended concentration.

Because Ascorbyl Palmitate is an oil compatible vitamin C derivative, do not follow directions intended for water soluble L Ascorbic Acid powder, such as simply dissolving it in distilled water.

It can be incorporated into suitable creams, lotions, emulsions and other cosmetic products where its solubility characteristics have been considered. Accurate weighing, appropriate processing and finished product stability testing are recommended.

For topical cosmetic use only.
