Description
L-Glutathione Powder is a naturally-occurring antioxidant that is typically produced by the liver. Glutathione is present during vital bodily functions like tissue building, producing proteins and chemicals, and boosting the immune system. These processes are not only good for your body, but you’ll see a difference in your skin, too. Glutathione stores in the body depletes with time due to oxidative stress, etc. However, Glutathione currently can be obtained by semi-synthesis. (source: Modern Cosmetics)

Cosmetic Benefits of L-Glutathione (Reduced) Powder
• Glutathione has been termed as the ‘mother of antioxidants’: Being a potent antioxidant, it aids in neutralizing the free radicals formulated due to intense exposure to ultraviolet radiations and environmental pollutants.
• Glutathione Inhibits tyrosinase activity: The primary mechanism by which glutathione effectively reduces the dark spots, patches and uneven skin tone is the inhibition of tyrosinase activity. Tyrosinase is an integral enzyme in melanogenesis (the process by which melanin is produced). Inhibition of this enzyme significantly affects the levels of melanin (the pigment which imparts color to your skin, higher the levels darker is the skin). This results in improving the skin brightening and even tone.
• Glutathione activates pheomelanin pathway: Another mechanism by which glutathione reduce hyperpigmentation is the stimulation of the pheomelanin pathway. Glutathione converts eumelanin to pheomelanin, thus regulating the melanogenesis with or without exposure to the sun.
