There are situations in which your skin will darken due to many environmental factors. These are majorly changes of weather aspects such as temperature and humidity. Cosmelan is a skin care product that allows you to undo the darkening on your skin due to these aspects. The general population is however ore concerned about skin darkening as far as ageing is concerned. When we grow older, our bodies stop producing as much collagen as it did in our youth. Collagen, being the essential scleroprotein for skin maintenance, if in low quantities will result in unhealthy/ ageing skin. Cosmelan also fights against this factor, making sure you have enough collagen to keep your skin looking young.
Formula
The formulation for the cosemelan products is kept quite secret. We however do know that the active ingredient is an enzyme inhibitor of tyrosinase. This enzyme is an essential building block for melanin that is the skin pigmentor. By inhibiting it, it is quite obvious that less pigment will be produced and the end result is a lighter looking you! This product does not contain bleaching agents as most people suppose it does, though the positive effects are as blatant as bleach would be.
How does it help in lightening skin?
As mentioned earlier, this product is works as a melanin suppressant. High melanin levels are equivalent to darker skin shades - that's what's makes the difference between the races! Coleman works by introducing an agent that will suppress the enzyme tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is an essential building block for melanin, and therefore if your body does not produce enough tyrosinase, then it will be virtually impossible to create melanin, and therefore your skin will appear lighter. The advantage of this method is that it is skin deep- it attacks the problem at its root and therefore the effect is longer lasting.
Is its ingredients safe?
The ingredients themselves are not clearly known, and therefore cannot be judged accurately. However, the mere fact that it suppresses part of your body's natural functioning is a very bad sign. It means that in search for beauty, you miss some enzymes from being formed. The net effect of this is not known but there are chances that some form of mutation could be the end result. The cream, being a facial product is also quite too concentrated, and therefore is a potential risk to the eyes incase it accidentally drops in.
