What is Ascorbyl Glucoside?

A popular derivative of the well-loved vitamin C, Ascorbyl Glucoside is praised for being effective to the skin due to the fact that it is very stable and formulates easily into skincare products. You will find it contains three potent anti-ageing benefits, such as helping the skin boost its production of collagen, fading any signs of hyperpigmentation and dark spots as well as providing antioxidant benefits meaning the skin is able to combat any exposure to free radical damage that occurs on a daily basis. Ascorbyl Glucoside is one of the most promising derivatives of vitamin C, however there are still studies underway to determine the extent of how effective it is compared to vitamin C.
