Ethyl Ferulate is a multifunctional skin-protecting and brightening active ingredient. It exhibits strong antioxidant and bacteriostatic effects, helping to protect the skin from oxidative stress and environmental damage. Additionally, it inhibits the binding of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and helps regulate melanocyte proliferation, supporting a more even skin tone and reducing the appearance of pigmentation.

This ingredient is supplied as a white to almost white powder et est soluble dans l'alcool et l'huile, making it versatile for incorporation into serums, creams, lotions, and other oil- or alcohol-based skincare formulations. With a recommended usage of 0.1–0.5%, it delivers effective brightening and protective benefits while maintaining formulation stability.
