What Is Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (VC-IP)?
Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, commonly known as VC-IP, is an oil-soluble vitamin C derivative used in cosmetic formulations. Compared with pure L-ascorbic acid, VC-IP is generally more stable in oil-based systems and easier to incorporate into serums, creams, lotions and emulsion products.
In skincare formulation, VC-IP is widely used for its antioxidant and brightening-related properties. It can help support skin radiance, improve the appearance of dull skin and contribute to anti-aging oriented formulations.
We supply high-quality VC-IP for cosmetic manufacturers worldwide. It is commonly used in brightening serums, anti-aging creams, moisturizing lotions and barrier-support skincare products. We provide lab test samples, complete COA, MSDS, TDS documents and global door-to-door delivery service.
Core Advantages Of Our VC-IP
Oil-Soluble Vitamin C Derivative
VC-IP is oil-soluble, making it suitable for oil phases, anhydrous systems and various emulsion formulations.
Better Formulation Stability
Compared with pure L-ascorbic acid, VC-IP can offer better stability in certain cosmetic systems, helping reduce color change and degradation risks.
Antioxidant Support
VC-IP can help neutralize free radicals and protect skin from oxidative stress, making it suitable for anti-aging and daily skincare formulations.
Brightening Formulation Ingredient
VC-IP is commonly used in brightening serums and radiance-enhancing products to help improve the appearance of dull and uneven skin tone.
Smooth Skin Feel
VC-IP can provide a smooth, non-greasy skin feel when properly formulated, making it suitable for high-end serum and cream products.
Global Supply & Technical Support
Each batch can be accompanied by COA, MSDS and TDS documents to support formulation reference and cosmetic registration requirements.
How VC-IP Works In Cosmetic Formulations
VC-IP acts as an antioxidant and brightening ingredient in cosmetic formulations. It helps reduce free radical damage, supports collagen synthesis and improves the appearance of dull skin.
Due to its oil-soluble nature, VC-IP can be easier to incorporate into oil-based and emulsion formulations. It is often used in serums, creams and lotions aimed at providing antioxidant protection, brightening support and anti-aging benefits.
VC-IP is generally considered milder than pure L-ascorbic acid in certain formulation environments, but pH, temperature and packaging conditions should still be controlled to maintain stability.
