Achieve radiant, youthful skin with the power of stabilized Vitamin C.
Boost your DIY skincare game with Ascorbyl Glucoside (AA-2G) Powder, a highly stable, water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C. Unlike traditional Ascorbic Acid, which oxidizes rapidly in water, AA-2G remains effective for much longer, delivering consistent brightening and anti-aging benefits without the typical irritation or instability.
Why Choose AA-2G?
Highly Stable: Resists oxidation, discoloration, and degradation, making it perfect for serums, lotions, and creams.
Gentle & Effective: Ideal for sensitive skin types. It converts slowly into Vitamin C upon skin contact, ensuring long-lasting action.
Potent Antioxidant: Protects against free radicals, environmental pollution, and UV-induced damage.
Brighter Tone & Less Spots: Actively inhibits melanin production to fade dark spots and even out skin tone.
Boosts Collagen: Promotes firmer, smoother skin by supporting collagen synthesis.
Key Benefits:
Skin Brightening: Diminishes hyperpigmentation and age spots for a luminous complexion.
Anti-Aging: Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Anti-Pollution: Defends skin from daily environmental stressors.
Highly Soluble: Mixes easily into water-based, DIY formulations.

As of August 29, 2025, there is a 35% tariff or duty charge imposed on all goods coming into the U.S. from Canada. The United States mandates that all packages entering the U.S. from Canada must have their duties prepaid (settled upfront).
Our "USA only" pricing incorporates the necessary duty and processing fee calculated separately for each item. The advantage is that we charge the exact duty for each item and use the most economical shipping rates for orders bound for the U.S. Consequently, our prices are more budget-friendly compared to the Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) shipping option, where you might pay a lower item price but face exorbitant shipping costs, as the estimation for duty and duty processing fees is included in the shipping charges. In the DDP scenario, shipping companies rely on a general estimate for duties which can exceed the true amount, as they do not possess the exact information for each unique item.
