Highest Form Of Retinoid Without A Prescription

GLYCYRRHIZA GLABRA (Liquorice Root) EXTRACT

For centuries, Liquorice root has been used as a herbal remedy to treat a wide variety of inflammatory skin
conditions, such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. It contains properties that help reduce the oil in skin to
inhibit breakouts, and decrease hyperpigmentation. It is known as a potent anti-inflammatory and an effective
tyrosinase inhibitor, interfering with the skin’s manufacture of melanin.
Glabradin is the main Liquorice compound extracted from the glycyrrhiza glabra plant that works as a
tyrosinase inhibitor to reduce UVB-induced pigmentation and erythema. Liquorice’s anti-inflammatory
qualities reduce hyperpigmentation without the irritation associated with other such ingredients including
hydroquinone. Liquiritin is another active ingredient, which does not inhibit tyrosinase but it helps to disperse
and remove melanin and pigments in the skin. Glycyrrhiza glabra is also an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant,
primarily because of licochalcone – a molecule contained in Liquorice root extract that controls oil production,
and helps calm and soothe acne-prone skin.
Liquorice Root Benefits:
» as a potent antioxidant, it helps to protect the skin from the sun and pollutant-induced attacks by free
radicals
» lightens discolouration and pigmentation by interfering with the skin’s manufacture of melanin
» acts as an anti-inflammatory to reduce itchy and inflamed skin
» controls oil production to help calm and soothe acne-prone skin.
NIACINAMIDE (Vitamin B3)
Niacinamide is a versatile B group vitamin (and derivative of niacin) that provides potent anti-inflammatory,
melanosome transfer inhibiting and barrier function strengthening properties. It is also well-respected for its
ability to improve skin hydration and elasticity, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. It increases the production
of ceramides – lipids in the outer layer of the epidermis that shield skin against moisture loss and protect it
from bacteria and the environment. Further re-balancing of sebaceous activity provides relief for breakout-
prone and seborrhoeic conditions. Flush and warmth associated with niacinamide promote dermal micro-
circulation.
Vitamin B3 Benefits
» contains anti-inflammatory properties to calm and soothe red and irritated skin
» decreases trans-epidermal water loss in dry skin
» stimulates collagen to reduce the look of wrinkles and fine lines
» may also decrease the appearance of wrinkles by reducing excess dermal glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).
