What It Does

Curcuma Longa Root Extract is derived from the rhizomes of turmeric, a member of the ginger family native to South Asia. The extract is standardized to 95% curcuminoids, primarily curcumin, which gives it potent antioxidant properties and the ability to modulate inflammatory pathways in skin through inhibition of NF-κB signaling. The liposomal powder formulation significantly enhances the bioavailability of curcumin, which is naturally poorly water-soluble, allowing for better skin penetration and efficacy in addressing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, redness, and oxidative stress while imparting a natural golden glow to formulations.
