Glabridin is a natural
Skin Whiteing Material isolated from licorice flavonoids, which are extracted from the rhizomes of specific varieties of licorice plants (such as Ural licorice, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Glycyrrhiza glabra, etc.). It is all natural, pollution-free, and has no side effects on the human body. It is a reddish-brown powder at room temperature, insoluble in water, and easily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, etc.
Glycyrrhiza glabra is a perennial herb that grows in southern Europe, Asia, and the Mediterranean region, and is widely planted in Russia, Spain, Iran, and India. Glycyrrhizin can reduce phlegm, moisturize, resist inflammation, resist filterable pathogens, resist liver toxins, and resist bacteria. Due to these therapeutic effects of licorice, it has been widely studied in medicine and food. Licorice can be used in cosmetics. It has whitening, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant effects, and is a cosmetic raw material with great application value.
Glabridin Skin Whitening is known as "whitening gold" for its high efficiency in inhibiting active oxygen and melanin. First, it is a compliment to the whitening effect. Second, the price of a single gram of glabridin is comparable to that of gold. Only a few brands dare to use it as a whitening ingredient.
Efficacy and Function
Glabridin has strong antibacterial effects, prevents inflammation, pigmentation and rough skin caused by ultraviolet rays, can remove superoxide ions, inhibit hemolysis caused by hydrogen peroxide, inhibits the activity of tyrosinase, and inhibits the activity of dopachrome interconversion and DHICA oxidase. It is a fast, efficient and green whitening and freckle removal cosmetic additive. It has the ability to remove oxygen free radicals similar to SOD (superoxide dismutase), and also has the ability to resist oxygen free radicals similar to vitamin E. In addition, glabridin also has strong oxidation, anti-atherosclerosis and certain lipid-lowering and blood pressure-lowering effects.
Pharmacological Action
Glabridin is one of the main flavonoid components in licorice. It shows a strong anti-free radical oxidation effect in the cytochrome P450/NADPH oxidation system, and can significantly inhibit the free radicals produced in the body's metabolism process, so as to prevent oxidation-sensitive biomacromolecules (low-density lipoprotein LDL, DNA) and cell walls from being damaged by free radical oxidation. It can prevent and treat certain pathological changes related to free radical oxidation, such as atherosclerosis, cell aging, etc. In addition, glabridin has a certain effect of lowering blood lipids and blood pressure.
Uses
Glabridin is a compound extracted from licorice (root) with cytotoxic, antibacterial, estrogenic and antiproliferative properties.
