What Is Cetyl tranexamate HCl (TXC) Powder?
Cetyl tranexamate HCl, well-known as TXC, is a lipophilic ester derivative of tranexamic acid. Thanks to its unique cetyl lipid-chain structure, it achieves significantly higher epidermal penetration than ordinary water-soluble tranexamic acid. After topical application, endogenous skin esterase will gradually convert TXC into active tranexamic acid inside skin layers, realizing long-lasting 12-hour brightening performance。
As multi-target cosmetic active, TXC suppresses multiple key factors of melanin generation, improves dark spots, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Meanwhile it relieves inflammatory redness, inhibits inflammatory mediators. Our cosmetic-grade TXC powder maintains stable batch consistency. Each batch provides full technical documents for cosmetic registration and formula R&D.
Core Advantages Of Our Cetyl tranexamate HCl (TXC) Powder
Enhanced Skin Penetration
Lipophilic molecular structure greatly improves skin barrier penetration capacity compared with traditional water-soluble tranexamic acid, easier to reach the target skin layer to work。
12-Hour Sustained-Release Brightening
Pro-drug mechanism: converted step-by-step by skin esterase, rather than releasing all active ingredients at once, delivering long-term pigment-inhibiting effect.
Dual-Function: Brightening & Anti-Redness
Not only inhibits melanin deposition for fading dark spots and uneven tone, also reduces inflammatory response, improves PIH and skin redness concerns.
Oil-Soluble Compatibility
Oil-soluble active powder, perfectly compatible with cream, lotion, oil-based serum and emulsion systems, fills the technical gap of tranexamic acid in oil-phase formulas.
Mild For High-End Skincare
Low irritation profile, suitable for intensive brightening formulas targeting sensitive skin, post-procedure repair skincare.
Reliable Quality & Full Technical Support
High purity ≥98%, strict batch inspection, support third-party independent lab testing. Provide COA, MSDS, TDS and practical formulation suggestions for your R&D team.
How Cetyl tranexamate HCl (TXC) Works In Cosmetic Formulations
TXC penetrates stratum corneum via its lipophilic alkyl chain. Once inside skin tissue, skin esterase enzymes hydrolyze TXC and release active tranexamic acid. It blocks plasmin-related pathways, restrains melanocyte activation and melanin biosynthesis, and lowers inflammatory factor release, jointly improving pigmentation and redness problems。
Note: TXC is heat-sensitive raw material. Formulators need to strictly control processing temperature, carry out pH adjustment, compatibility test and finished-product safety & stability assessment. Final effect depends on formula system, dosage and matched auxiliary ingredients.
