4-Hexyl resorcinol as a skin brightening goodie
Skin Brightening
A molecule that is naturally present in the bran of rye and other cereals. It has been used for a long time in the food industry as an “anti-browning agent” for fresh-cut fruits or shrimps.
It turns out that Hexylresorcinol works as an “anti-browning agent” also in cosmetic products. It is a pretty well-researched molecule with significant tyrosinase (the famous enzyme needed to produce melanin) inhibiting abilities.
Many recent clinical study showed that 0.5% Hexylresorcinol has a comparable skin-lightening effect to gold-standard, 2% Hydroquinone.
Even better, a 12-weeks, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with 65 volunteers confirmed the effectiveness of our skin-lightening molecule and it measured an average of 88% skin-lightening improvement. The study also included before and after photos (always a good sign!) and the skin-lightening was indeed visible and significant (though the pigmentation spots did not completely disappear, just so you have realistic expectations).
Flawless Ltd. Utilized the anti-tyrosinase activity of 4-hexyl resorcinol as a superior alternative to Hydroquinone in all PELADURA ® Therapeutic Cold Peeling Range to help professionals get best results after treatment sessions.
