AA2G(Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside)

Product name : AA2G(Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside)

Product description :
AA2G (Ascorbic Acid 2-Glucoside) from Hayashibara is natural vitamin C (ascorbic acid) stabilised with glucose. This combination allows the benefits of vitamin C to be conveniently and effectively used in cosmetic products. When creams and lotions containing AA2G? are applied to the skin, an enzyme present in the skin, a-glucosidase, acts on the AA2G? to slowly release the healthful benefits of vitamin C. 
AA2G was originally developed as a quasi-drug cosmetic product in Japan to lighten the overall tone of the skin and reduce the pigmentation in age spots and freckles. Further research has shown other dramatic benefits and today AA2G? is used all over the world – not only for whitening but also for brightening dull looking skin, reversing the effects of aging, and in sunscreen products for protection.
