DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Brightens skin and reduces hyperpigmentation through glabridin tyrosinase inhibition while calming inflammation.
Why It's Used: Combined brightening + soothing in one botanical โ ideal for hyperpigmentation with skin reactivity where brightening actives (ahas, retinoids) increase sensitivity.
How It Works: Glabridin inhibits uvb-induced melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity. isoliquiritigenin inhibits melanocyte-stimulating hormone (msh). glycyrrhizinic acid inhibits prostaglandin synthesis for anti-inflammatory activity. licochalcone a inhibits nf-kb.

SCIENTIFIC NOTE
Glabridin's tyrosinase inhibition mechanism differs from both kojic acid (copper chelation) and arbutin (substrate competition) โ it inhibits the enzyme's catalytic conformation without substrate competition, providing a third distinct brightening mechanism suitable for formulation with the other inhibitor types for synergistic brightening.
