Yes, Licorice Root can be used to
brighten skin and treat hyperpigmentation due to high levels of melanin.
Licorice Root extract is one of many
natural compounds, along with certain types of citrus fruits, that are highly
effective at fading discoloration and evening out skin tone when applied
topically to the skin.
The magic compound in Licorice Root is
glabridin. It’s found only in small, trace amounts, but it is a powerful skin lightener/brightener.
Glabridin has been shown to inhibit pigment-producing enzymes and prevent formation
of melanocytes, or dark patches on the skin. In fact, the brightening
effect of glabridin has been shown in some studies to be greater than that of
hydroquinone!
Licorice Root also has
anti-inflammatory properties that can help to calm and soothe skin. Best of
all, it’s non-toxic, so it’s completely safe to use every day.
Now, there’s no need to run out and by
a bottle of Licorice Root extract. You
can give your skin all the licorice root extract it needs, along with other
natural skin brighteners like Bearberry
Leaf extract, just by using your Rx for
Brown Skin Naturally Flawless
Botanical Brightener.
