Whitening with a New Mechanism
SulforaWhite is a liposomal preparation of Swiss garden cress sprouts rich in sulforaphane, a powerful antioxidant phytonutrient.
Market trends reflect a general demand for whitening products to lighten the skin complexion, to lessen differences in pigmentation but also to give a more radiant look. SulforaWhite effectively inhibits pigmentation by targeting two key upstream reaction steps in the melanin cascade:
• Neutralization of reactive oxygen species
• Inhibition of alpha -MSH, a natural hormone which stimulates skin pigmentation.
To facilitate absorption into the skin and to target melanocytes, garden cress extract was incorporated into liposomes.
The whitening effect of SulforaWhite was proven both in vitro and in vivo. Its mechanism was clearly demonstrated and its lightening efficacy was proven both on Asian and Caucasian skin types.
