The Newly improved Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Oil is a lipophilic derivative of ascorbic acid that is oil-soluble and more stable than other forms of vitamin C. it is made by combining ascorbic acid with a fatty acid known as palmitic acid. It’s also known as ascorbyl-6 palmitate, and it is effective up to a pH of 6.

The palmitate portion of this ingredient lends it hydrating properties many other forms of vitamin C do not have. Ascorbyl palmitate is considered a stable form of vitamin C, research has shown other forms possess greater stability and skin can more freely convert those forms to ascorbic acid. However, a comparative study showed that ascorbyl palmitate maintains adequate stability in different types of emulsions when it is encapsulated.
