Description
Lipoic acid is a very excellent natural antioxidant, with free radical scavenging effect, its ability to remove free radicals is more than 100 times that of vitamin C, especially suitable for anti-aging products. It has the effect of chelating metal ions, can bind to copper ions in tyrosinase, is a competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase, and has good whitening effect. However, lipoic acid has the problems of low solubility, poor stability and significant odor, which limits its application in cosmetics. The shortcomings of lipoic acid can be solved by supramolecular inclusion technology. It can be widely used in anti-aging, wrinkle removal, whitening, spot lightening, anti-inflammatory and anti-sensitivity, acne treatment, scar reduction, damage repair and other products, and it is compatible with lotion cream formula, gel formula and water formula.
