Glutathione, Tripeptide

Glutathione is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid—known as the body’s “master antioxidant.” It plays a vital role in protecting the skin from oxidative stress, detoxifying cells, and promoting a brighter, more even complexion. As an active cosmetic ingredient, Glutathione effectively inhibits the tyrosinase enzyme, helping to reduce melanin formation, lighten dark spots, and improve skin clarity. Its ability to shift melanin production from darker eumelanin to lighter phaeomelanin results in a visibly luminous glow.

This potent antioxidant also supports tissue repair, enhances collagen production, and strengthens the skin’s natural defense system. Stable and effective in aqueous systems, Glutathione is ideal for brightening, anti-aging, and detoxifying skincare formulations.
