Summary

skin brightening antioxidant anti-aging skin conditioning

Science

Mechanism of Action

Inhibits tyrosinase enzyme activity and suppresses melanin production by downregulating MITF transcription factor and tyrosinase-related proteins (TRP-1, TRP-2). Simultaneously activates AMPK and MAPK signaling pathways while providing antioxidant protection and collagenase inhibition to preserve dermal matrix integrity.
