The Gentle Giant: Licorice Extract for Hyperpigmentation

The Gentle Giant: Licorice Extract for Hyperpigmentation

For individuals with dry skin, combating hyperpigmentation can be a delicate balancing act. Traditional treatments often rely on potent acids and exfoliants, which can exacerbate dryness and irritation. However, there's a gentler alternative that's gaining recognition for its ability to fade dark spots without compromising skin health: Licorice extract.

The Power of Licorice Extract

Derived from the root of the licorice plant, licorice extract boasts a myriad of skincare benefits, including its ability to brighten and even out skin tone. What sets licorice extract apart from harsh acids is its gentle yet effective approach to tackling hyperpigmentation.

Licorice extract contains a compound called glabridin, which inhibits the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for dark spots and uneven skin tone. By slowing down melanin production, licorice extract helps fade existing hyperpigmentation while preventing new spots from forming.

Introducing Jelly Water: Harnessing the Power of Nature

At MAJI, we believe in harnessing the power of natural ingredients to transform and rejuvenate the skin. That's why we've incorporated licorice extract, specifically Dipotassium glycyrrhizinate, into our bestselling Jelly Water serum to target hyperpigmentation in a gentle yet effective manner.

Paired with niacinamide and hexapeptide-8, our unique blend works synergistically to boost the complexion, leaving skin radiant and revitalised. Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, helps to improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of pores, while hexapeptide-8 provides anti-aging benefits by promoting collagen production.

A Gentle Approach to Radiant Skin

Unlike harsh acids that can strip the skin of its natural moisture barrier, our licorice extract-based formulation nourishes and hydrates dry skin, making it an ideal choice for those with sensitive or reactive skin types. By opting for a gentler approach to hyperpigmentation, you can achieve visible results without compromising skin health.
