Melanin synthesis takes place in melanosomes, which contain specific enzymes controlling the production of pigments. The first step of melanogenesis is mediated by tyrosinase, a key enzyme that catalyses the first two reactions of melanin synthesis. Abnormal accumulation of melanin is responsible for hyperpigmentations, which can be distressing for some people.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChanges in skin pigmentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTypical pigmentary changes apppear during intrinsic aging and photoaging.

The volunteers applied a cream containing 0.1% Skinbright Active on one side of the face, twice daily, for 2 months, and a placebo cream on the other side.\u003cbr\u003eThe brightening effect was instrumentally evaluated by means of a Chromameter CR-300. Mean values from 5 successive measurements were calculated. These 6 measurements were rigorously made at the same location at each time.\u003cbr\u003eMeasurements were taken before application, after 30 days and after 60 days of treatment.\u003cbr\u003eAfter 30 days of treatment, there was significant increase in skin luminance for the skin that was treated with Skinbright Active Cream. The placebo cream presented no significant effects.\u003cbr\u003eAfter 60 days of treatment, the brightening effect induced by the cream containing Skinbright Active increased in respect to the results at 30 days and it was significantly superior to the effect observed for the placebo cream. In short, the results of the in vivo test prove that Skinbright Active is able to induce a skin brightening effect after 30 and 60 days of treatment.\u003cbr\u003eAt the end of the study, no adverse effects were reported by the volunteers.\u003cbr\u003eSkinbright Active showed no cytotoxic effects on melanocytes, keratinocytes or fibroblasts, neither mutagenicity nor any irritation or sensitisation reaction. Its efficacy was tested in cell-free enzymatic assays as well as in cell-based assays. It proved to inhibit both mushroom and endogenous human tyrosinase in vitro, and exhibited a significant depigmenting effect on human melanocytes. The product also proved to have a significant photo-protective effect on human epidermal keratinocyte cell cultures, and can therefore prevent the skin-damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Raleway;\"\u003eIn conclusion, Skinbright Active can be classified as a safe skin brightening agent due to its impeccable safety profile and contrasted in vitro and in vivo efficacy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-heading\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-header\"\u003e \u003ch4 class=\"shogun-accordion-title\"\u003e TECHNICAL DOCUMENTS \u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-icon shogun-icon-chevron\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shogun-accordion-body\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-c \" id=\"s-6cb56408-4347-4d9e-9570-68009ed5db80\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-row\" data-col-grid-mode-on=\"\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-c-lg-6 shg-c-md-6 shg-c-sm-6 shg-c-xs-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"s-9a81eb77-ced7-4726-8261-e8d88d3397b0\" class=\"shg-c \"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere is a link to all non batch specific documents for this product \u003ca title=\"Link to Technical Documents\" href=\"https:\/\/aromanticltd.sharepoint.com\/:f:\/s\/TechnicalDocuments\/EoouIO_ylclOm56I86GVlsIB7z0eVkT2hJD47PvR2Y_Jew?e=nPXsUg\"\u003eLink to Technical Documents\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-c-lg-6 shg-c-md-6 shg-c-sm-6 shg-c-xs-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"s-3b87afec-361b-446d-8bc9-10d30ee76d32\" class=\"shg-c \"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you have any questions about the documents or need the Certificate of Analysis (COA) for a product which you have recived, then please request that \u003ca title=\"Request Certificate Of Analysis (COA)\" href=\"https:\/\/aromantic.co.uk\/pages\/request-technical-documents\"\u003ehere.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aromantic UK","offers":[{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":56203073716599,"sku":"50505","price":9.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 ml","offer_id":56203073749367,"sku":"50506","price":18.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":56203073782135,"sku":"50507","price":40.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 ml","offer_id":56203073814903,"sku":"50508","price":147.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Litre","offer_id":56203073847671,"sku":"50509","price":271.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/3427\/1896\/files\/skinbright-activeactive-ingredients-2656863.png?v=1769433188","url":"https:\/\/www.herbalshire.com\/products\/skinbright-active","provider":"Herbalshire Handmade Herbal Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
