Inaclear® Vectorized
Inaclear® Vectorized, a pure biomimetic ingredient, is an innovative active that acts on many levels of the skin's pigmentation pathway making skin appear brighter, with a more even skin tone. It helps to modulate fibroblast synthesis of DKK-1, decreasing melanin synthesis, to visibly make the skin more radiant. Use level: 1%

- Background
INACLEAR's development started with a new understanding about the mechanism of human skin pigmentation. A research team from Japan succeeded in demonstrating why hands, palms, and feet soles are always hypo-pigmented regardless of skin color. This is due to DKK-1, a factor only synthesized in the palmo-plantar area by fibroblasts. DKK-1 downregulates melanin synthesis. Inaclear utilizes this pathway for skin brightening.
