As a natural nutrient, Coenzyme Q10 has many functions for the skin, such as antioxidant, promoting collagen synthesis, inhibiting melanin synthesis (whitening), and reducing photodamage. It is a very mild, safe, efficient, and multifunctional skin care ingredient.

Coenzyme Q10 can be synthesized by the human body itself, but it will continue to decrease with aging and light exposure, so active supplementation can be adopted.

1. Antioxidant

As we all know, oxidation is the main factor causing various skin problems, and Coenzyme Q10 can penetrate the skin layer, reducing oxidation and delaying aging.

As an important antioxidant in the human body, Coenzyme Q10 on the one hand participates in the production of the body's energy ATP, enhances cell vitality, and promotes collagen production. On the other hand, it acts as an antioxidant to scavenge oxygen free radicals, protect cells, reduce damage, and keep the skin smooth and plump.

2. Inhibit melanin synthesis

Melanin is an amino acid derivative that exists in human skin, mucous membranes, retina, leptomeninges, and gallbladder.

When ultraviolet rays irradiate the skin, the skin will be in a state of "self-protection" and release melanin to protect our skin cells, and the epidermis will form freckles, sun spots, dark spots, etc.

Coenzyme Q10 can penetrate into the skin, reduce free radicals induced by UVA, inhibit HaCaT and inhibit the synthesis of tyrosinase, and improve the skin's ability to resist ultraviolet rays.

3. Effect on skin

Topical Coenzyme Q10 can reduce oxidative stress caused by UVB and repair and prevent photodamage caused by UVB to the skin.

As the concentration of coenzyme Q10 increases, the number and thickness of people's epidermal cells will also increase, forming a natural skin barrier to resist ultraviolet rays, thereby protecting the skin.

Additionally, Coenzyme Q10 helps inhibit inflammation caused by UV light exposure.
