Congratulations to the new VIP-member!
Thank you! I am not into DIYing, but I will definitely try to add some tetrahexyldecyl palmitate in jojoba or avocado oil to use in conjunction with dermarolling.
Kassy_A's summary of the benefits of l-ascorbic acid is pretty much in line with what I have been reading on EDS and in different studies throughout the years.
The studies I have seen about oil-soluble forms of vitamin C on Pubmed (posted in other threads on EDS forum), only address the stability of this form, which is far better than the l-ascorbic acid. I have not seen the effects of oil-soluble vitamin C on wrinkles and photodamaged skin being measured in independent studies. The anti-aging properties of l-ascorbic acid are scientifically proven in several studies.
I think the oil-soluble forms have gained popularity lately because it's easier for manufacturers to make stable serums with them.
Studies also demonstrate that the delivery systems in the emulsions play a great role. Multiple phase emulsions like oil-in-water and oil-in-water-in-oil ensure slow and controlled release of the vit C. Ensuring an effective delivery system will be the biggest challenge when DIYing, as far as I can see. |
