AA2G Powder

This is a natural vitamin C that contains glucose stabilizers.

It allows vitamin C to be made more convenient for cosmetics. Creams and lotions containing AA2G are applied to the skin. Through the action of enzymes and α-glycosidase on the skin, the vitamin C contained in AA2G can be slowly released.

AA2G can be used to lighten skin tone and reduce the pigmentation of age spots and freckles. AA2G is not only used for whitening, but also can brighten dull skin tone, delay aging, and protect the skin in sunscreen products.

 

We know the problem of vitamin C in the formula, it faces heat, oxidation, reaction with other commonly used ingredients, etc., and then vitamin C loses its biological activity. This can lead to discoloration of cosmetic formulations and greatly compromise the efficacy.

At this time, a new type of enzyme preparation synthesizes vitamin C and glucose into a new substance. This substance forms a special stable vitamin C called L-Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside. This vitamin C derivative, called AA2G for short, has excellent formula stability, can essentially inhibit discoloration and degradation, while retaining all biological activities to achieve brightening and whitening, resistance to ultraviolet radiation, and anti-aging effects.

 

It is more stable than Vitamin C, easier to dissolve, and has all the functions of Vitamin C

The effect of vitamin c in cosmetics is mainly to brighten and whiten the skin, inhibit the formation of melanin and reduce the ability of melanin.

 

 

 

AA2G Powder provides stable, clinically proven cosmetic advantages

1. Targeted Skin Brightening & Hyperpigmentation Reduction

Inhibits tyrosinase activity within melanocytes to block melanin production. Furthermore, it actively reduces pre-existing oxidized melanin (dopaquinone), fading dark spots, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) for an even, luminous skin tone.

 

2. Sustained Collagen Synthesis & Anti-Aging Renewal

Enzymatically releases Vitamin C continuously to human skin fibroblasts, stimulating Procollagen Type I and Type III synthesis. This improves dermal density, restores skin elasticity, and visibly reduces the depth of fine lines and wrinkles.

 

3. High-Capacity Antioxidant & Photo-Aging Defense

Neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals caused by UV exposure, blue light, and urban pollution. It prevents lipid peroxidation, decreases UV-induced erythema (redness), and protects cellular DNA from photo-damage.

 

4. Superior In-Formula Stability & Shelf-Life Extension

Unlike native L-ascorbic acid which rapidly degrades, darkens to brown, and releases unpleasant odors, AA2G remains exceptionally stable in the presence of water, heat, and oxygen. This ensures formulation clarity and potency throughout product shelf life.

 

5. Gentle Skin Tolerance & Barrier Support

Works efficiently at a skin-friendly pH (5.0–7.0), minimizing skin irritation, tingling, and redness commonly associated with low-pH acidic Vitamin C serums. It supports skin barrier integrity and is suitable for sensitive skin formulations.

 

Brightening Serums & Ampoules

High-potency daily radiance formulations, dark spot correctors, and tone-evening drops.

 

Anti-Aging Creams & Lotions

Firming moisturizers, night repair creams, and eye creams targeting collagen synthesis.

 

Sun Care & Post-Sun Care

UV defense lotions and soothing post-sun lotions designed to prevent UV-induced oxidative damage.

 

Synergistic cosmetic active combinations featuring AA2G Powder include:

AA2G Powder + Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) (Dual-Action Radiance & Spot Correcting Complex)

Combines AA2G's melanin synthesis inhibition with Niacinamide's melanosome transfer blocking for comprehensive skin brightening.

 

AA2G Powder + Hyaluronic Acid + Ferulic Acid (Triple Antioxidant & Hydration Lock)

Enhances free radical scavenging capacity while maintaining optimal skin barrier moisture and texture refinement.

 

AA2G Powder + Alpha-Arbutin + Tranexamic Acid (Advanced Pigment Control Serum)

Delivers multi-pathway dark spot reduction to clear stubborn age spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

Q: What makes AA2G superior to standard Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid)?

A: AA2G protects the reactive C2-hydroxyl group with glucose. This prevents oxidation, browning, and loss of efficacy in aqueous cosmetic products while delivering sustained L-ascorbic acid upon skin contact.

 

Q: What is the optimal pH range for formulating with AA2G?

A: AA2G is stable across a wide pH range of 5.0 to 7.0, which matches the natural physiological pH of human skin and prevents stinging or irritation.

 

Q: Is AA2G soluble in water or oil?

A: AA2G is highly water-soluble and can be easily incorporated into the water phase during cold or warm formulation processes (ideally under 40°C).

 

Q: What regulatory compliance documents are available for AA2G Powder?

A: We provide complete regulatory dossiers including COA, MSDS, Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Allergen Declaration, Non-GMO Certification, and Heavy Metal/Microbial reports.
