Tetrahydrocurcumin is a natural active ingredient derived from the hydrogenation of curcumin, which is extracted from the rhizome of turmeric. Compared with curcumin, it has significantly improved water solubility and stability, along with stronger biological activity, making it a highly sought-after ingredient in the fields of skincare, food additives, and health supplements.
In the skincare industry, tetrahydrocurcumin stands out for its outstanding skin-brightening and anti-aging effects. Firstly, it can effectively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, a key enzyme in melanin synthesis, and block the formation and transfer of melanin in skin cells. This makes it effective in lightening sun spots, freckles, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, achieving the effect of brightening skin tone and evening out skin texture. Unlike some synthetic brightening ingredients, tetrahydrocurcumin is mild and non-irritating, and it does not cause photosensitivity, making it suitable for daytime use and friendly to sensitive skin.
Secondly, tetrahydrocurcumin has potent antioxidant properties. It can scavenge free radicals generated by ultraviolet radiation, environmental pollution, and oxidative stress, protecting skin cells from oxidative damage. It also helps promote the synthesis of collagen and elastin, improving skin firmness and elasticity, and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by aging. In addition, it exhibits excellent anti-inflammatory effects, which can alleviate skin redness and irritation caused by external stimuli, and assist in repairing damaged skin barriers, making it ideal for post-sun repair products and skincare for acne-prone skin.
In the field of health supplements, tetrahydrocurcumin has attracted attention for its systemic health benefits. Relevant studies have shown that it has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects in the body, which may help reduce chronic inflammation, support liver health, and regulate lipid metabolism. It is also more easily absorbed by the human body than curcumin, with higher bioavailability, making it a valuable raw material for functional foods.
Tetrahydrocurcumin has good compatibility with other active ingredients such as niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C. It is widely incorporated into serums, creams, facial masks, and oral capsules, becoming a versatile natural ingredient in the beauty and health industries.
