Description
DIGLUCOSYL GALLIC ACID (98%) – POWDER
Diglucosyl Gallic Acid is a biotechnology-derived brightening molecule that becomes active when in contact with the skin’s microbiome.
It converts into Trihydroxybenzoic Acid (THBA), a powerful but gentle skin-lightening compound. It is considered one of the most advanced modern skin-brightening actives, popular in Korean, Japanese, and luxury skincare.
Diglucosyl gallic acid (DGA) is an antioxidant and skin-brightening powder that inhibits melanin production, reduces redness, and protects against free radical damage. It is a biotechnologically modified form of gallic acid, also known as Trihydroxybenzoic acid glucoside (THBG), and is used in cosmetic and skincare products to treat hyperpigmentation, control inflammation, and brighten the skin.
Key Benefits OF USING DGA
Skin brightening: DGA inhibits the production of melanin, which can help reduce the appearance of dark spots, even skin tone and brightens dull complexion.
Antioxidant properties: It acts as an antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals and protecting the skin from UV-induced damage.
Anti-inflammatory effects: It can soothe skin inflammation and reduce redness associated with conditions like acne.
Anti-pigmentation: It Controls melanin synthesis, reduces hyperpigmentation and Targets stubborn spots and patches.
Stability and solubility: It has high stability and high water solubility, making it easy to incorporate into cosmetic formulations.
Gentle on sensitive skin: It can be a good option for those with sensitive skin who may not tolerate more irritating skin-lightening ingredients.
How it works
DGA works by disrupting the skin’s pigmentation process in several ways:It controls the expression of the MITF (Melanocyte Inducing Transcription Factor) gene, which is responsible for melanin production.It prevents melanin from being transferred to the top layers of the skin.It inhibits the production of tyrosinase, an enzyme crucial for melanin synthesis.
