About

An acetylated flavonoid derived from myricetin offering enhanced antioxidant protection for cosmetic formulations.

Myricetin is a flavonol found in many fruits, vegetables, and tea. Acetylation of myricetin improves its lipid solubility and stability compared to the parent compound. PubChem safety score of 84 reflects the favourable profile of acetylated flavonoids. The acetyl groups mask some hydroxyl groups, potentially reducing sensitization risk while maintaining antioxidant activity. No EU Annex restrictions apply to this ingredient.
