VitaSynol® C is a highly stable, oil-soluble Vitamin C ester engineered to deliver targeted skin benefits through the gradual release of active Vitamin C. While it lacks inherent antioxidant activity due to complete esterification of its hydroxyl groups, VitaSynol® C acts as a true precursor—releasing Vitamin C within the skin to combat UVB-induced cell damage and reduce ROS-driven melanogenesis.

Key Features

• True Vitamin C precursor: Delivers active benefits through enzymatic release

• Superior stability: Resists heat and oxidation far better than traditional Vitamin C

• Enhanced absorption: Lipophilic nature improves skin penetration

• Formulation flexibility: Easily incorporated into oil-based systems

• Formulation tip: Since the release of Vitamin C may take hours before it shows a protective effect, it’s important to include an effective antioxidant like Synoxyl® AZ or Sytenol® A to VitaSynol® C formulations

Synoxyl® HSS is a biodegradable SPF booster and photostabilizer, ideal for formulating broad-spectrum sunscreens free from octocrylene and oxybenzone. Inspired by the molecular structure of ginger, Synoxyl® HSS is designed to enhance SPF performance, protect light-sensitive ingredients from photodegradation, and safeguard the skin by inhibiting upstream reactive oxygen species (ROS) cascades.

This unique compound delivers in-vivo SPF boosting of ≥50% in both organic and inorganic sunscreen formulations—without contributing to SPF on its own—making it a cost-effective, eco-friendly solution for next-generation sun care products.
