THE CULTURE OF A BRIGHTER SKIN (I)
Skin brighteners use and consumers’ demand is growing worldwideSkin brighteners use and consumers demand is growing worldwide.
• In Western countries, skin brighteners are applied for theprevention and treatment of irregular hyperpigmentation, resultingin an evener skin tone.
• In Asia, brighter skin is a symbol of beauty and femeninity. The useof skin brightening agents is widely extended by traditional beliefs.o The need of whitening the skin is so high that most of anti-aging
products contain also whitening ingredients and UV filters.

amount, distribution and type of melanin.

• Typical pigmentary changes appearduring intrinsic aging and photoaging:

THE SEARCH FOR A NEW SKIN BRIGHTENER
• Inhibition of melanin synthesis by inhibition of tyrosinase activity.
• Tyrosinase: key enzyme of melanogenesis.

THE IDEAL SKIN BRIGHTENER
According to Dooley1, new depigmentation products should include thefollowing desirable features:
PROPERTIES
following desirable features:
Inhibition of mammalian tyrosinase (human tyrosinase)
Lack of toxicologic or mutagenic potential (impeccable safety profile)
Clinical efficacy (proven in vivo)
Formulation stability (high stability)
Novelty and patent protection
