Everything You Need To Know
A yellow to brownish yellow, thick oily liquid which can crystallise at room temperature. It is stabilised with Tocopherol. It is also known as Retinyl Palmitate.
According to the Cosmetic Ingredient Database (Cosing), the functions of Vitamin A are: Skin Conditioning.
To view more information, visit the Cosing Database here..
Use up to 0.5%. Oil soluble so cannot be used in water only products.
It is not heat stable so must be used in Stage 3 (below 40°C) . when making creams and lotions. Vitamin A can easily solidify in the bottle at room temperature. To use it, stand the bottle in a mug of warm water to loosen it up. Do not use boiling water as this can damage the Vitamin A. As soon as it is pourable, pour out the amount you need. Store in a cool, dark place or in the refrigerator.
Skin Care
Excellent for conditioning the skin and can help to increase the skin’s natural elasticity and also help to repair the damage to the skin.
As a powerful antioxidant, it helps to protect the cell membranes from free radical damage. Excellent to use in products for dry and mature skin as it helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Use in anti ageing creams, lotions and serums.
It nourishes the skin and is soothing for skin complaints. Very useful in anti-acne products as clears the pores to help stop breakouts. It also improves the appearance of blemishes to give the skin a more even tone and luminosity.
Even skin that has been damaged by too much sun can be revitalised by using Vitamin A Palmitate.
High levels or regular usage of Vitamin A is not advised if you are pregnant. Do not use on children under the age of 7 years and do not use on babies at all. Different assessors have varying opinions on safety levels for adults. We have found that 0.5% is generally acceptable. If you are unsure, consult your safety assessor.
Works very well when used with Wu Zhu Extract in a cream or lotion to give radiance to the skin.

Q&A
- Could I use a few drops of this to my moisture cream on a daily basis . I'm 66 and trying to preserve my skin from more wrinkles and lines? If so can I use it twice a day and how many drops should I use when apply my moisture cream . Many thanks 😊 Carol
- Hi, It is a potent anti oxidant that is used in very small amounts as part of a formulation, only 0.5% is required, ie. only 0.5ml is needed for a 100ml formula. I'm afraid there is no safe recommendation for dropping it into cream for daily application.
- could you send me the msds document for vit A palmitate as well please. thanks.
- Thank you for your enquiry. You can now request all technical documents via our website; https://aromantic.co.uk/pages/request-technical-documents
- can i mix VitA with B3 and Nag? would PH be compatible?
- Vitamin A is oil soluble and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is water soluble, so they will not combine at all unless they are in an emulsion or gel base. We have not found that they cause any pH issues. As we don't stock Nag, we cannot say how it would work, sorry.
