Zam C 30g Skin Cream

The active components, including glycyrrhizin and glabridin, inhibit tyrosinase activity, reduce melanin synthesis, and prevent the transfer of melanin to keratinocytes.This stable form of vitamin C acts as a melanin-inhibiting agent by reducing the activity of tyrosinase and scavenging free radicals, leading to skin brightening.Alpha Arbutin inhibits melanin production by competitively inhibiting tyrosinase and reducing the oxidation of L-DOPA, thereby preventing the formation of melanin pigments. When combined in a cream formulation, these ingredients work synergistically to target various stages of melanin synthesis, resulting in a comprehensive approach to skin brightening and the improvement of hyperpigmentation.
