Glutathione

Why Your Skin Needs It

Glutathione is a potent antioxidant that reduces oxidative stress, which occurs when there’s an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body’s ability to fight them off. It also helps to counteract free radicals and protect the body from aging and some diseases. Glutathione has been shown to reduce hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the tyrosinase enzyme, as well as switching melanogenesis (melanin production) from the darker eumelanin to the lighter phaeomelanin. It also improves skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles and fine lines. Glutathione has been shown to have a positive effect on the immune system, reducing inflammation and improving overall health

The SOHI Labs Expertise

SOHI Labs experts have combined the skin brightening power of most potent ingredients like Glutathione, Kojic Acid, Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid in one product.

What Derma Specialist Says

According to a study published on PubMed, glutathione is a low molecular weight thiol-tripeptide that plays a prominent role in maintaining intracellular redox balance. In addition to its remarkable antioxidant properties, the discovery of its Anti melanogenic properties has led to its promotion as a skin-lightening agent. Many physicians consider it as a wonder drug for skin lightening and treatment of hyperpigmentation, especially with darker skin tones.¹,²

Kojic Acid

Skin Benefits

• Antiaging
• Lightens/Brightens Skin Tone
• Fade Dark spots and Hyper Pigmentation

Skin Concerns

• Dark Skin Tone
• Hyper Pigmentation
• Melasma

What You’ll See On The Ingredient List

Kojic Acid, 5-Hydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)-4H-pyran-4-one

Why Your Skin Needs It

Kojic acid has several benefits for skin. It helps fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation, is a natural skin lightening agent, brightens the skin, treats certain skin conditions like melasma, and has an anti-aging effect¹²³

Kojic acid inhibits body’s melanin production. Melanin is a pigment that adds brown color to our skin, hair, eyes, and more. By inhibiting melanin production, kojic acid creates a more consistent skin tone in the treated areas

What Derma Specialist Says

According to Heidi W. Moore, kojic acid may improve other dark spots on the skin, such as those attributed to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation; kojic acid can also improve the appearance of photodamage and mild wrinkles⁴.

Vitamin C

Skin Problems

· Uneven skin tone
· Dullness
· Fatigue

What You’ll See On The Ingredient List

Ascorbic Acid, Ascorbyl Phosphate (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate)

Why Your Skin Needs It

Vitamin C is a must to protect the skin from premature aging. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect and brighten your skin, giving it an overall brighter, more even glow. It helps neutralize free radicals on the skin. Free radicals originate from pollution or UV exposure, and they attack your cells, speeding up the aging process that leads to wrinkles, rough skin texture, enlarged pores, and skin dullness, etc.—unless they’re intercepted by an antioxidant. That’s where vitamin C comes in. It has also been shown that vitamin C helps boost natural collagen and elastin production (which strengthens and plumps up the skin), brighten dark spots and prevent future hyperpigmentation from forming. It’s one of the best vitamins for skin rejuvenation.

The SOHI Labs​ Expertise

Vitamin C is most effective when it’s fresh. SOHI Labs uses light-proof, air-tight chamber that maintains the potency of vitamin C up until you use it.

What Derma specialist Says

“Vitamin C addresses multiple skin concerns and is one of the most effective antioxidants. Daily use helps protect against oxidation, which triggers premature aging,” suggests Dr. Michelle , a board-certified dermatologist based in New York City.

Beware: Not all vitamin C products are created equal

The one drawback: vitamin C is a notoriously unstable skincare ingredient, meaning its full potential is easily compromised by the skincare formula and packaging it comes in. The second it is exposed to oxygen or light, it starts to lose its potency. So while you may scan the ingredient list of a skincare product for vitamin C (also known as Ascorbic Acid, Ascorbate, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate and Ascorbyl Glucoside), it’s not a sure thing that you’re actually getting a powerhouse of a treatment.

Ferulic Acid

Skin Benefits

Ferulic acid (FA) is a phytochemical found in plant cell walls. FA not only has its own antioxidant properties, it also synergizes the effect of other antioxidants like Vitamin A, C and E.

Skin Concerns

– Hyper Pigmentation

– Aging (Fine Line and Wrinkles)

– Sun Spot

– Active Acne/Post Acne Dark Spots

What You’ll See On The Ingredient List

Hydroxycinnamic acid

Why Your Skin Needs It

As an antioxidant, FA can help reduce antioxidant damage and the visible signs of aging. One of the leading causes of inflammation, damage and aging of the skin is free radicals. FA is known to combat the negative effects of inflammatory-inducing free radicals. Ferulic acid is known for working well in combination with other antioxidant, vitamin A, C & E by creating synergistic effect.

Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, FA is also a great ingredient for people struggling with acne since it can help calm an existing pimple while also discouraging any post-acne dark spots.

The SOHI Labs Expertise

SOHI Labs experts have synergized antioxidants (Vitamin A, C & E) containing formulas with Ferulic Acid, boosting there damage repair and antiaging properties.

What Researchers Say

According to a scientific article published in the Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition, FA’s anti-aging effects are a result of its ability to effectively act as a harmful (free) radical scavenger and suppress UV radiation-induced oxidative reductions that can be bad for skin health.

Hyaluronic Acid

Skin Benefits

Hyalutonic acid has powerful moisture surge property. It can absorb water up to 1000 times its own weight held under skin. Leaving skin looking and feeling softer, smoother and healthier

Skin Concerns

· Dehydration
· Dullness
· Lines & wrinkles

What You’ll See On The Ingredient List

Sodium Hyaluronate

Why Your Skin Needs It

This powerful humectant floods your skin with hydration and helps strengthen your skin’s natural moisture barrier. As we age, supplies of hyaluronic acid diminish. Replenishing your skin’s reservoir helps maintain a plump, dewy, and healthy condition.

Hyaluronic acid enhances Keratin production by proliferation of keratinocytes (Keratin Producing Cells) in skin epidermis. Keratin is not only essential for normal skin epidermal function but also plays vital role in reepithelization during skin repair. Keratin has strong moisturizing property and enhances skin elasticity.

Hyaluronic Acid is absorbed in relatively high concentrations in intercellular matrix found in basal layer of the skin epidermis where it helps to maintain the extracellular space and provides an open, as well as hydrated, structure for the passage of nutrients to skin epidermis.

Free-radical scavenging property of Hyaluronic Acid contributes to protection against solar radiation, supporting the role of CD44 acting as a Hyaluronic Acid receptor in the skin epidermis.

The SOHI Labs Expertise

Best-loved SOHI Labs  products feature premium quality hyaluronic acid to penetrate multiple layers of your skin. Clinical testing proves it works non-stop for 100 hours—even after you wash your face.

What Derma specialists Say

“Hyaluronic acid is a must-have, regardless of your skin type,” says Dr. Michelle Henry, a board-certified dermatologist based in New York City. “It plumps up your skin with hydration and makes fine lines and wrinkles appear less obvious.”
