Ethyl ferulate

Ethyl ferulate and ferulic acid are two compounds used in cosmetics for their scientifically documented antioxidant properties. They are linked to neutralizing various types of free radicals, which is recognized for contributing to protection against oxidative stress, a factor associated with the visible signs of aging.

Antioxidant action: linked to neutralizing free radicals and protecting against oxidative stress.

Additional UV protection: ethyl ferulate is associated, according to available data, with partial absorption of a portion of UV radiation, helping protect against oxidative stress caused by sun exposure.

Formula stabilization: documented for its role in stabilizing vitamin C in cosmetics, a combination recognized for maintaining vitamin C activity until application.

An ingredient of interest in formulations for antioxidant serums and products combining several oxidation-sensitive active ingredients.
