Tetra Vitamin C: The science behind modern radiance

Vitamin C is one of the most studied active ingredients in modern cosmetology and is considered a key ally for bright, even, and healthy skin. It contributes to the skin's antioxidant protection, while supporting the natural process of collagen synthesis and improving the appearance of discolorations and signs of photoaging. However, the effectiveness of a vitamin C largely depends on its form.

What is Tetra Vitamin C?

Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate is one of the most advanced and stable forms of vitamin C currently used in premium cosmetology.

Unlike classic L-Ascorbic Acid, which is water-soluble and particularly sensitive to light, oxygen, and pH changes, Tetra Vitamin C is oil-soluble, exhibiting significantly greater stability within the formulation.

Why is it considered the new generation of vitamin C?

Its oil-soluble nature allows Tetra Vitamin C to exhibit improved penetration into the epidermis compared to classic L-Ascorbic Acid, making it particularly popular in modern premium formulations.

At the same time:

• it remains stable for a longer period,
• it is more resistant to oxidation,
• it works exceptionally well with other active ingredients,
• it offers a particularly pleasant and silky feel upon application.

Its benefits for the skin

Tetra Vitamin C contributes to:

• improving the skin's natural radiance

• evening out skin tone

• reducing the appearance of discolorations

• antioxidant protection against oxidative stress caused by solar radiation and daily environmental factors

• maintaining a smoother and more youthful appearance of the skin

At the same time, as a vitamin C derivative, it participates in the natural process of collagen synthesis in the skin, contributing to the maintenance of its firmness and elasticity.

Why did we combine it with Bakuchiol?

At LALEH, we chose to combine Tetra Vitamin C with Bakuchiol, creating a formulation that unites two modern active ingredients with complementary actions.

This combination offers comprehensive antioxidant protection, contributes to improving the appearance of the skin, and supports a daily routine aimed at radiance, uniformity, and maintaining healthy skin.
