Product Introduction of Phloretin Powder
Phloretin is a natural dihydrochalcone flavonoid extracted from apple peel (Malus domestica), with INCI name Phloretin, CAS No.60-82-2 and EC No.200-488-7. Our cosmetic-grade phloretin powder reaches 98% minimum purity tested by HPLC, presented as uniform white crystalline powder that meets global cosmetic manufacturing standards for brightening, anti-aging, oil control and after-sun repair formulations. Different from common whitening actives, phloretin works via multi-path skin care mechanisms: melanin inhibition, antioxidant, anti-inflammation, transdermal penetration booster and sebum regulation. It is widely recognized by cosmetic formulators for its mild, non-irritating and stable performance within pH 5.0–7.0 formulation systems.
- Melanin Regulation: Competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase, blocking the conversion of tyrosine to melanin precursors, reducing hyperpigmentation and uneven tone.
- Antioxidant Action: Donates hydrogen atoms to neutralize ROS; upregulates SOD and inhibits MMP‑1/elastase to preserve collagen and elasticity.
- Anti‑Inflammatory Effect: Downregulates TNF‑α, IL‑6, and NF‑κB signaling to relieve redness and support barrier recovery.
- Synergistic Enhancement: Improves transdermal delivery of vitamin C, ferulic acid, and other actives to boost formulation efficacy.
- Sebum Control: Modulates glucose uptake in sebocytes to reduce excess oil production.
