AA2G

What is Ascorbyl Glucoside (AA2G)?

Ascorbyl Glucoside (AA2G, L-Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside) is a highly stable, water-soluble vitamin C derivative produced by enzymatic synthesis. It is widely used in cosmetics, food supplements, and personal care for skin brightening, antioxidant, anti-aging, and soothing effects. It slowly releases active vitamin C in skin and body without discoloration or degradation. AA2G is a natural vitamin C derivative containing a glucose stabilizing component. This component enables vitamin C to be conveniently and effectively formulated into cosmetics. When creams and lotions containing AA2G are applied to the skin, the vitamin C in AA2G is gradually released under the action of skin enzymes and α-glucosidase. AA2G can be used to lighten skin tone and reduce pigmentation such as age spots and freckles. In addition to whitening, AA2G also brightens dull skin, delays aging, and protects the skin when used in sun care products.

Application of Ascorbyl Glucoside (AA2G)

Ascorbyl Glucoside (AA2G) is a stable, water-soluble vitamin C derivative extensively applied in a wide range of cosmetic and skincare formulations. It is widely used in brightening serums, spot-correcting essences, and daily moisturizers to inhibit melanin production, fade dark spots, post-acne marks, and uneven pigmentation, delivering a brighter and more uniform skin tone. Due to its excellent stability and mildness, AA2G is also commonly incorporated into toners, facial masks, and eye creams for long-term antioxidant care, helping to neutralize free radicals, protect skin from environmental damage, and support collagen synthesis to improve skin firmness and reduce fine lines. Additionally, it is compatible with sunscreen and anti-aging products, enhancing photoprotection and anti-wrinkle effects when combined with ingredients such as niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin E. Its high water solubility and low irritation make it suitable for sensitive skin formulas and mainstream daily skincare lines, making it one of the most popular vitamin C derivatives in the cosmetics industry.
