Our concentrated, corrective MELA serum contains a specialised blend of active ingredients to brighten the skin, providing a more even-toned complexion. 4-Butylresorcinol has a unique structure that enhances its bioavailability in the skin. It helps reducehyperpigmentation by suppressing a key enzyme, tyrosinase, which plays a major role in the process where the skin produces pigment (melanogenesis). 4 Butylresorcinol directly inhibits tyrosinase activity, assisting to provide a more even-toned complexion. pH Cell-detox contributes to boosting the cell autophagy (your body’s cellular recycling system. It removes unnecessary or dysfunctional components for optimising your cells’ performance) which may be key to improving cell longevity and improving skin radiance in fatigued skin. Tetrapeptide-30 provides strong skin brightening effects, helping to visually. reduce hyperchromatic spots. Neuro-light is an extract from Sand Lily, contributing to a reduction in hyperpigmentation, and assisting towards an even skin tone. Hyaluronic acid low molecular weight provides a boost of hydration and contributes to protect the skin barrier.
