Key Ingredients:
Nonapeptide-1/Dextran: A peptide produced synthetically through recombinant genetic technology that has the ability to reduce hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the action of tyrosinase in melanin-producing cells. First developed for its antimicrobial activities, it has since been found to be a strong inhibitor of melanin formation in laboratory studies of yeast and melanoma (skin cancer) cells. Nonapeptide-1 consists of the amino acids: arginine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, tryptophan, and valine. It acts as a radiance promoter and whitening agent.
Alpha Arbutin: A natural skin lightening/whitening agent. It works by slowly releasing hydroquinone through hydrolysis, which in turn blocks tyrosinase activity and reduces the skin’s melanin production.
Oil Soluble Licorice Extract: Inhibits pigmentation by preventing tyrosinase activation.
Studies have shown that it can provide a considerable skin brightening effect while remaining
non-toxic to melanin forming cells.
Pisum Sativum (PEA) Extract & Sucrose Dilaurate: A synergistic complex that offers a visible skin brightening effect by utilizing two pathways for melanin inhibition and is effective at reducing age spots and improving skin tone.
