Product Applications

Whitening and Brightening

Inhibits the transport of melanosomes from melanocytes to keratinocytes, downregulates tyrosinase activity, accelerates the shedding of old dead skin cells containing melanin, blocks the melanin transmission chain in multiple dimensions, and improves uneven skin tone and dullness.

Oil Control and Acne Removal

Regulates the sebaceous gland cell signaling pathway, reduces the synthesis and secretion of fatty acids and triglycerides in sebum, while inhibiting the reproduction of Propionibacterium acnes, reducing oil production from the source, and improving enlarged pores.

Barrier Repair

Promote the synthesis of ceramide and cholesterol in the stratum corneum, activate serine palmitoyl transferase activity, enhance adhesion between horny cells, reduce transepidermal water loss, and help sensitive muscles return to stability.

Antioxidant and Anti-aging

Activate antioxidant systems such as glutathione and superoxide dismutase in the skin, eliminate oxidative damage to collagen and elastic fibers caused by free radicals, and delay fine lines and skin sagging.
