CAS#: 56-81-5 Tetrapeptide-30 Solution is a new peptide developed to balance skin tone. There are various mechanisms to brighten skin tone, including reducing or inhibiting tyrosinase activity, blocking melanin transfer into keratinocytes, and inhibition of melanocyte activation. It is theorized that Tetrapeptide-30 Solution works by reducing the amount of tyrosinase and inhibiting melanocyte activation. In vivo skin lightening studies have shown Tetrapeptide-30 Solution to notably reduce yellow skin tone starting at 4 weeks and fading age spots after 8 weeks. It has been shown to significantly improve the overall appearance after 2 weeks and the evenness of skin tone after 4 weeks. Skin lesion were significantly reduced after 4 weeks of use. According to the manufacturer, its use with Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, a Vitamin C derivative, has been shown to improve its performance significantly. All studies were performed at a usage rate of the peptide equivalent to 2.5% Tetrapeptide-30 Solution in the test formulation.Applications Skin lightening preparation (e.g. hand creams) Anti-aging products with correction of age spots and pigmentation Anti-aging products for even skin tone Ethnic skin care Décolletté preparations Benefits Visibly diminishes hyperchromatic spots Improves evenness of skin tone Reduces lesions and melasma on ethnic skin Active on all kinds of skin types Provides significant anti-inflammatory effect Skin-friendly Safely inhibits the pigmentation process INCI: Tetrapeptide-30, Glycerin, Water Do not directly apply onto your skin.
