Co- Enzyme Q10 Powder (Oil Soluble)

Co-Enzyme Q10 Powder (Oil-Soluble)

Lipid-phase antioxidant and cellular energy support active for oil-based systems.

INCI Name: Ubiquinone

Appearance: Bright yellow to orange crystalline powder

Solubility: Oil-soluble

Typical Usage: 0.05–0.1%

Function: Antioxidant, anti-aging support, photoprotection, lipid membrane protection

Co-Enzyme Q10 (Ubiquinone) is a naturally occurring, fat-soluble molecule present in human skin where it supports mitochondrial energy production and protects lipid structures from oxidative damage. This oil-soluble form integrates directly into the lipid phase of formulations, reinforcing skin barrier function and enhancing antioxidant performance within oils and emulsions.

Common Applications

• Facial oils and lipid serums
• Anti-aging creams and rich emulsions
• Barrier-repair and nourishing treatments
• After-sun and photoprotection support products
• Oil-based masks and balms

Why Oil-Soluble Co-Enzyme Q10?

Co-Enzyme Q10 is inherently lipophilic, making oil-soluble Q10 the most biologically aligned form for protecting skin lipids and cell membranes. When delivered in the oil phase, Q10 helps defend against lipid peroxidation caused by UV exposure, pollution, and environmental stress, while supporting visible firmness and resilience.

Key Benefits

• Lipid antioxidant protection: Helps protect oils and skin lipids from oxidative degradation.
• Cellular energy support: Assists mitochondrial function linked to skin vitality.
• Photoprotection support: Helps reduce oxidative stress from UV exposure.
• Barrier reinforcement: Supports smoother, more resilient-looking skin.
• High stability: Well suited for oil-rich and anhydrous systems.

Usage Guidelines

• Recommended use level: 0.05–0.1%
• Dissolve fully in the oil phase with gentle heating if required
• Suitable for oils, emulsions, balms, and lipid serums
• Compatible with most cosmetic oils and esters

Formulation Notes

• Protect from excessive heat and prolonged light exposure
• Often paired with tocopherols to stabilize oils
• Can be combined with oil-soluble vitamins and botanical oils for enhanced performance
