Cosmetic Grade Alpha Lipoic Acid(CAS 1077-28-7)
Cosmetic-grade Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a rare dual fat-water soluble super antioxidant raw material in the skin care industry, known as the "universal antioxidant". Different from single water-soluble VC or fat-soluble VE, it can penetrate both aqueous and lipid layers of the skin, comprehensively scavenge excess free radicals in the epidermis and dermis, block multi-dimensional oxidative aging, and has far stronger antioxidant capacity than traditional antioxidant ingredients.
Alpha Lipoic Acid has outstanding anti-glycation effect, which can effectively inhibit the glycation reaction of skin collagen, prevent collagen yellowing, brittleness and breakage, fundamentally improve skin yellowish turbidness, sagging and dull aging problems caused by glycation, and restore skin translucent and firm texture. It can accelerate skin cell metabolism, fade oxidative dullness and pigmentation, uniform skin tone, and significantly improve tired and sallow complexion caused by staying up late and environmental stress.
Meanwhile, it can activate skin fibroblast activity, promote collagen and elastin regeneration, smooth dry fine lines and static wrinkles, improve loose skin texture, and enhance skin elasticity and compactness. With mild skin-friendly properties and stable formula activity, it can be perfectly compounded with vitamin series, peptides, nicotinamide and brightening ingredients to form a synergistic anti-aging system, double the brightening and firming effect, and is a core high-efficiency anti-aging and brightening raw material for high-end functional skin care products.
