About this ingredient

Ascorbyl glucoside is a stable, water-soluble derivative of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) bound to glucose. It functions as an antioxidant and skin brightening agent in cosmetic formulations, providing vitamin C benefits with improved stability compared to native ascorbic acid. It helps protect skin from free radical damage and may promote a more even, radiant complexion.
