Product Highlights

HENTOWHITE AF not only has an important reducing effect on the activity of the tyrosinase, but its clearing and whitening activity is accomplished by the synergistic and simultaneous action, on the three mechanisms of the melanogenesis process:


1. Before the melanin synthesis, interfering in the synthesis and glycosilation of the tyrosinase preventing that the enzyme could be absorbed by the melanosome.
2. During the melanin synthesis, inhibits enzymatic activities, as a competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase, and less on TRP1 and TRP2 Enzymes, reducing the formation of byproducts that promote melanogenesis.
3. After the melanin synthesis, improving the tyrosinase degradation, the inhibition of the transfer of the melanosome to the keratinocyte, and with a light peeling thanks to the action of the Fatty Acids.

This action is reinforced by the presence of fatty acids, components with regulating activities on the degradation of the tyrosinase enzyme.
