Cosphaderm® AP is the lipophilic ester of ascorbic acid and palmitic acid. The palmityl ester possesses improved skin penetration and stability properties compared to ascorbic acid. As an established vitamin C derivative it can be used in skin whitening approaches. The main application of ascorbyl palmitate is to act as a radical scavenger and stop oxidative radical chain reactions or even regenerate depleted antioxidants. By this means, Cosphaderm® AP achieves protection of unsaturated fat and oil components on its own or in synergy with other antioxidants like tocopherols or rosemary extract.

Cosphaderm® T-50 NON GMO ECO is a blend of organic sunflower oil and mixed tocopherols from NON GMO vegetable sources. It contains a minimum total amount of 50% tocopherol with high proportions of beta, gamma and delta isoforms. Mixed tocopherols are widely used as ideal natural antioxidants for protection of oil and fat components susceptible to oxidation.

Cosphagard® SA natural is 100% naturally sourced and COSMOS-approved salicylic acid made from natural wintergreen oil by mild fermentation and two-step purification. Salicylic acid has been sourced traditionally from willow trees. Willow bark extract has played a role in traditional herbal medicine in many cultures, and the extract of dried bark is still used as a drug in tea or natural medicine. Salicylic acid is a well-known active and listed Preservative that has been used for its antimicrobial, keratolytic and anti-inflammatory activity in products against acne and dandruff for many years.

Cosphaderm® E-1000 NON GMO is a blend of the strong antioxidant d-alpha-tocopherol with non-GMO sunflower oil. It contains a minimum total amount of 67.1% d-alpha-tocopherol, equivalent to 1000 IU/g of vitamin E. D-alpha-tocopherol is the most effective form of vitamin E naturally present in the skin. Due to ultraviolet radiation, levels of vitamin E decrease towards the skin surface, making the skin vulnerable to oxidative stress. Cosphaderm® E-1000 NON GMO acts as a radical scavenger and antioxidant protecting the skin from UV damage, making it a genuine active ingredient particularly suitable for sun-care and anti-aging formulations.
