Phytic acid

What is it?

Phytic acid is an organic acid present in plants, especially seeds and fibre, with an antioxidant power. It also inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin synthesis.

What does it do for your skin?

It acts by reducing the amount of melanin and consequently the intensity of skin hyperpigmentation, improving the appearance of dark spots and/or hyperpigmentation and evening skin tone.
