Properties: Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a very stable vitamin C derivative( L-Ascorbic acid mono-dihydrogen phosphate magnesium salt) which does not degrade in formulas containing water.In skin care products, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) is used for UV protection and repair, collagen production, skin lightening and brightening, and as an anti-inflammatory. It is also a potent antioxidant. It is considered an excellent non-irritating skin whitening agent that inhibits skin cells to produce melanin and lightens age spots, and is a great alternative to Quinone. Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is a also a potent anti-oxidant that can protect skin from oxidation and UV rays, and is used as an anti-inflammatory (source). It can improve appearance of aged and fragile skin. Widely used as add-on ingredient in skin-lightening products to correct hyperpigmentation and age spots. Antioxidant effect can be increased by combining Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate with L-ascorbic acid and/or vitamin E.

Applications:

   Lotions, Cream, Sun care and after sun products, Make up products.
