Ageing along with environmental factors such as air pollution, chemicals from the vehicle, smoke, etc. may result in dry and dull skin, dark spots, uneven skin tone, wrinkles, and fine lines. In addition, UV rays make skin dull by inducing eumelanin formation which is one of the types of melanin pigment. Melanin pigment is of two types eumelanin and pheomelanin. Eumelanin makes skin dull and dark while pheomelanin increases the luminosity of the skin. Further, UV radiation & air pollution also damage the elastin and collagen of the skin through the generation of free radicals (oxidative stress). Elastin and collagen maintain youthful skin by providing the structural strength to the skin.
A potent antioxidant like glutathione may help in improving the skin brightness by increasing the synthesis of pheomelanin and suppresses eumelanin formation. Alpha-lipoic acid with glutathione can reduce the wrinkle formation by inducing skin collagen synthesis that provides firmness to the skin. Further, Vitamins like Vitamin C and E may prevent oxidative stress induced skin damage by neutralizing free radicals. Thus, supplementation of Glutathione, alpha-lipoic acid, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E could be an effective approach for brightening the skin and maintaining its youthfulness.
HK® Glutathione with key ingredients like Glutathione, alpha-lipoic acid, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Biotin may help in maintaining the youthful and glowing skin.
