Application field
Tranexamic acid is a new type of high-efficiency whitening agent that can remove melanin and effectively lighten dark spots.
Tranexamic acid has a four-fold whitening mechanism:
1. Tranexamic acid can rapidly inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and melanocytes, while blocking melanin aggregation.
2. Tranexamic acid can effectively calm the stress melanin accumulation induced by deep skin inflammation.
3. Tranexamic acid can effectively block the secondary oxidation reaction ofmelanin (Mei's reaction)
4. Tranexamic acid can effectively reduce the melanin that has been precipitated and promote the peeling of the melanin that has been formed.
Formulation advantages:
1. High water solubility, easily soluble in water, colorless and odorless, not easy to change color.
2. It has good compound performance and stability with other whitening raw materials.
3. High thermal stability, no deterioration at high temperature.
4. Low irritation, no irritation for mask.
5. The effect is fast, 1-2 weeks can make the skin white and bright, it is a quick-acting product.
