Abstract

Background: The well known instability of vitamin C to thermal and oxidative degradation stimulated the research for more stable molecules with gradual release and effect on the skin. Ascorbyl glucoside is a vitamin C precursor. It is an ascorbic acid molecule with an additional C2-glucose, more chemically stable which prevents the low effectiveness of vitamin C in the presence of different degradation mechanisms. In addition, tocopheryl glucoside is a vitamin E precursor metabolized into free tocopherol in the skin, with a considerable reservoir effect, associated with gradual delivery.
