Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A next-generation peptide linked to vitamin C, designed to deliver advanced skin rejuvenation and brightening benefits.
Ascorbyl phosphate succinoyl pentapeptide-12 is a synthetic peptide-VC conjugate combining the free radical scavenging properties of vitamin C phosphate with the skin-matrix supporting effects of a pentapeptide. The succinoyl linker and phosphate ester improve stability compared to free ascorbic acid. While structurally complex, peptide-VC conjugates are generally well-tolerated and considered suitable for cosmetic use, though individual allergic responses remain possible.
Skin benefits
- Antioxidant protection against free radicals and UV-induced damage
- Collagen synthesis stimulation supporting skin elasticity
- More photostable than free ascorbic acid
Known concerns
- Limited long-term safety data due to novel conjugate structure
- Possible individual peptide sensitivity
