Plamed Green Science Group Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate is a derivative of glycyrrhizic acid. It belongs to the triterpenoid saponin compound. Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate is extracted from licorice root. It contains hydrophilic groups and lipophilic groups; so it can reduce surface tension of aqueous solution, and has a strong foaming ability. As an anti-allergy, sunscreen, anti-freckle, whitening cosmetic functional additive, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate can effectively prevent skin inflammation; and it has sedative effect on inflammation caused by sunlight. It is widely used in cosmetics industry. Plamed Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate adopts two detection methods: HPLC (70%) and UV (98%), which ensures the purity of cosmetic grade Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate, and makes customers relieved, secure and unworried.

- Source
Licorice (Scientific name: Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch) belongs to leguminosae herbaceous perennial. It is also a traditional Chinese herb plant. Licorice mainly grows in arid, semi-arid sandy soil, desert edge and loess hilly area. Most of wild licorice in China is distributed in Sinkiang, Inner Mongolia, Ningxia, Gansu, Shanxi, and other places. There are a large number of artificial cultivation licorice areas in Sinkiang, Gansu, Inner Mongolia and Ningxia provinces. Licorice contains a variety of effective chemical components, such as liquiritin, glycyrrhizic acid, glycyrrhetinic acid, licorice flavonoids, liquiritigenin, etc. These components are mainly found in licorice root and bark. So the thick roots of licorice are major medicinal source commonly. Licorice extract is mainly used in the pharmaceutical, health care and cosmetics industries.

- Benefits
Whitening - Inhibits active oxygen formation: Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate is a flavonoid compound with strong antioxidant activity. Experimental study uses superoxide dismutase SOD as a control group, and the result shows that Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate can effectively inhibit the production of active oxyge. 2) Inhibits tyrosinase: The IC50 of tyrosinase of Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate is very low compared to the commonly used whitening ingredient. Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate is a well-recognized strong tyrosinase inhibitor; it is more effective than some commonly used whitening agents. 3) Inhibits melanin production: Test selects the back skin of guinea pigs under UVB irradiation. The result indicates that white coefficient of skin pretreated with 0.5% Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate is higher than that of the control group's skin, and the effect is obvious. Thus Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate has a significant inhibitory effect on melanin formation. It can be used to prevent skin pigmentation and melanin production after sun exposure.. Anti-inflammation - The result of mouse ear swelling test shows that toothpaste containing Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate can significantly inhibit xylene-induced ear swelling of mouse. So it has a strong anti-inflammatory effect for acute inflammation. The in vitro anti-inflammatory experiment of Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate suggests that in a certain concentration range, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate inhibits cells from secreting inflammatory mediator NO and inflammatory cytokine IL-6, when it acts on LPS to stimulate RAW264.7 cells. And its inhibition function depends on a certain dosage. Therefore, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate has obvious anti-inflammatory activity in vitro
