Functions
Skin whitening agent
Identifier
CIG-846

Beta-White is an innovative biomimetic peptide-based complex encapsulated (liposome) whitening peptide Oligopeptide-68 with a significant lightening effect. It reduces skin pigmentation and discoloration, including age spots. Furthermore, it inhibits the entire pigmentation process, preventing skin darkening under UV radiation and gradually lightening the skin tone. At present, this is the best treatment for severe pigmentation.

ß-White™ reduces melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity. Melanin synthesis is an enzymatic process that transforms tyrosine into eumelanin (a brownish-black pigment) and pheomelanin (reddish-brown pigment). The unique inhibitory effect of MITF (= Microphthalmia-associated process transcription factor) sets it apart from traditional skin-lightening components.
