Moisturizing potentials of ascorbyl palmitate and calcium ascorbate in various topical formulations

Abstract: The aim of this study was to use two of Vitamin C derivatives, lipophilic ascorbyl palmitate and hydrophilic calcium ascorbate to determine their skin-hydrating effects for the first time. For this purpose, anhydrous cream, gel and w/o emulsion were prepared and applied to the volunteers' inner forearms. A commercial topical preparation containing a known moisturizer, Vitamin E, was also chosen and used for comparison. Moisture contents of the skin were measured by using corneometer.

“…A Corneometer CM 825 (Courage and Khazaka Electronic GmbH, Cologne, Germany) is a commonly used instrument worldwide to determine the level of hydration of the skin surface, mainly the stratum corneum [ 25 , 26 ]. The investigation is based on the measurement of the capacitance of the dielectric medium.…”
