Sixteen female volunteers (37 to 55 years old) ap- plied a face cream containing 2 % of Ascorbyl Gluco- side, twice a day for a total of 112 days to the outer corners of their eyes and cheek area.- Application Information
Ascorbyl Glucoside can be incorporated in different kinds of cosmetic formulations.
- Incorporation
Ascorbyl Glucoside is highly stable at pH 5 - 7 even at high temperatures (up to 100 °C). Please avoid leaving it under prolonged conditions of strong acidity or alkalinity (pH 2 - 4 and 9 - 12). For better stability and to avoid pH drift the use of 1 % citrate buffer is recommended. To avoid discoloration protect the formulation from light, heat and high temperatures and adjust pH to6.5 to 6.8. The addition of metal chelating agent and/ or an antioxidant improves stability.
