Product Info:
Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) is a stable, water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C known for its antioxidant, brightening, and collagen-boosting properties. Unlike L-Ascorbic Acid, MAP remains stable in formulations and is gentle on the skin, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. It helps reduce hyperpigmentation, improve skin elasticity, and protect against environmental stressors. MAP is commonly used in serums, creams, lotions, and other brightening and anti-aging formulations.

Formulation Guidelines:

  • Easily dissolves in the water phase of formulations.
  • Works well in serums, creams, lotions, and toners.
  • Best formulated at a pH of 6.0 – 7.0 to maintain stability.
  • Can be combined with Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, and Peptides for enhanced benefits.
