GLUTATHIONE: achieves skin care effects by scavenging free radicals and inhibiting melanin production
Anti-oxidation· whitening&brightening · anti-aging&barrier repair&moisturizing
Product Overview
Glutathione plays five core roles in skincare: antioxidant, brightening, anti-aging, barrier repair, and moisturizing. It achieves its skincare benefits by scavenging free radicals and inhibiting melanin production.
Chemical Identity: Tripeptide (γ-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine) with active sulfhydryl group (-SH) .
Forms: Predominantly reduced (GSH) (biologically active) and oxidized (GSSG); interconversion regulated by glutathione reductase .
Mechanism:
- Antioxidant: Neutralizes free radicals directly and supports glutathione peroxidase enzyme .
- Detoxification: Binds toxins (heavy metals, drug metabolites) via conjugation, enhancing excretion .
- Cellular Protection: Maintains protein thiol integrity, stabilizes erythrocyte membranes, and regulates apoptosis
Core Applications & Benefits
Core Skincare Benefits
Antioxidant Protection.
- Neutralizes free radicals, reducing oxidative stress damage caused by environmental factors like UV rays and pollution.
- Protecting cell membranes, DNA, and collagen, slowing the aging process.
Whitening and Spot Reduction.
- Inhibits tyrosinase activity, blocking a key step in melanin production.
- Promotes the metabolism of existing melanin, improving dull skin and dark spots.
Anti-wrinkle and Firming.
- Stimulates collagen synthesis, enhancing skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines.
- Improve the appearance of enlarged pores and enhances skin texture.
Barrier Repair.
- Enhances the skin's self-repair ability and accelerates the regeneration of damaged cells.
- Relieves inflammation and reduces redness, itching, and other sensitive symptoms.
Provides long-lasting moisturization.
- Maintains epidermal moisture levels and improves dryness and roughness.
- Promotes the restoration of the stratum corneum's barrier function, maintaining hydration.
