Delentigo, developed by Mibelle Biochemistry, is a cosmetic ingredient to fight age spots and create an even skin tone. Age spots are characterised by a local overproduction of the two pigments melanin and lipofuscin. Delentigo prevents and reduces the synthesis of both these pigments.
Compared to classical whitening products, that generally lighten the skin, Delentigo has a targeted, stronger lightening effect on age spots than on the surrounding normally pigmented skin. Clinical studies showed that Delentigo:
• Visibly lightens age spots.
• Creates an even skin tone.
• Prevents photo-ageing and dark spots.
The new product is based on sulphoraphane from cress sprouts, a "second generation" anti-oxidant and genistein from soy, a natural inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase. Encapsulated in an advanced vector system Delentigo allows a targeted and time-releasing activity.
