Orchid White Max-Lightning Night Cream

This unique formula contains four of the most powerful skin lightening ingredients, Licorice Root, Kojic Acid, Bearberry Extract and Curcuminoids from Turmeric Root, in addition to fruit enzymes and a micro exfoliating powder to gently dislocate dead skin cells, allowing the active ingredients to penetrate the skin for maximum benefits.

Licorice Root Extract: contains glabridin and licochalcone A, which are very powerful chalconoids (more powerful than hydroquinone) proven to lighten sun damaged skin, inhibit melanin production, and protect the skin from free radicals thus preventing future sun damage.

Kojic Acid is a mighty melasma and sun damage fighter! It is a fungal metabolic product, produced by several species of fungi, that inhibits the rate-limiting, essential enzyme in the biosynthesis of the skin pigment melanin. Kojic acid is clinically proven to lighten and even the skin tone, in addition to its scar fading and anti-bacterial properties.

Bearberry Extract is extracted from the leaves of the bearberry plant. It is a skin lightening agent, used to fade freckles or skin discoloration which may be caused by sun damage or hormonal conditions. Bearberry extract is reputed to have antibacterial and antioxidant properties that may be beneficial for cleansing the skin and improving its appearance.

Tetrahydrocurcuminoids is extracted from the roots of the Curcuma longa (Turmeric) plant with skin whitening, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. It scavenges and prevents the formation of free radicals. It also inhibits tyrosinase, which inhibits the skin from producing melanin. This natural ingredient is valued as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, with superior free radical scavenging and lipid peroxidation inhibition efficacy as compared to vitamin E.

Fruit Enzyme Complex is a unique blend of Pomegranate, Starfruit, Passionfruit, Kiwi, Mangosteen, Pineapple, Lychee, Indian Jujube and Guava extracts. These components are capable of gently, yet effectively exfoliating the skin to deliver instant softening properties. AHAs loosen corneocyte attachments and reduce cell cohesion at the lower level of the stratum corneum to promote cellular renewal. As new skin cells generate, older cells slough off to reveal a smoother looking aesthetic. Factors such as sun damage, age and environmental stress cause this process to slow which results in the accumulation of dead skin cells. The use of AHAs can combat this problem by breaking proteolytic bonds to increase cellular renewal, thus supporting, and accelerating the effect of the other skin lightening ingredients in this cream.
