Hesperidin:The Main Component of Bulk Lime Extract

Hesperidin, also known as tangerine peel glycoside and citrus glycoside, is a natural flavonoid compound in lime extract. In the field of traditional Chinese medicine, it is key and widely used, and now it is also shining in the field of modern skin care. In the study of the medicinal effects of citrus, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory biological activities have gradually been revealed.Next, let us understand the important application of hesperidin in the field of skin care.

Active ingredients and effects

The active ingredients in hesperidin are mainly flavonoids, including hesperidin itself, naringin, neohesperidin, etc.

Hesperidin has an antioxidant effect, can remove free radicals and delay skin aging; can inhibit the release of inflammatory mediators and reduce skin inflammation; can also inhibit tyrosinase activity and reduce melanin production to whiten the skin.

Other flavonoid compounds can synergize with hesperidin in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capabilities. They can also help regulate skin cell metabolism, promote skin renewal, and maintain skin health and vitality.

Antioxidant effect

Hesperidin can remove free radicals in the skin, prevent skin aging, reduce wrinkles, sagging and dullness, and maintain skin firmness and elasticity.

Mechanism of action:The phenolic hydroxyl group in the chemical structure of hesperidin has strong reducing properties, which can provide hydrogen atoms to combine with free radicals to form stable free radical intermediates, interrupt free radical chain reactions, and protect biological macromolecules in skin cells.

Whitening and freckle removal

Hesperidin can inhibit melanin production, reduce the formation of spots, lighten existing spots, and make the skin color even and white.

Mechanism of action: Hesperidin binds to the active center of tyrosinase, inhibits its activity, and reduces the conversion of tyrosine to dopaquinone; it can also regulate the melanocyte signal transduction pathway and reduce melanin synthesis and transport.

Anti-inflammatory and soothing

Hesperidin can reduce skin inflammatory reactions, relieve discomfort such as redness, swelling, itching, tingling, fever, etc., enhance skin resistance, and improve problems such as sensitive skin, acne, and sunburn.

Mechanism of action: Hesperidin inhibits the activation of inflammatory cells, reduces the release of inflammatory mediators, regulates skin immune function, promotes inflammation subsidence, and maintains skin barrier function.

Improves microcirculation

Hesperidin can promote blood circulation in the skin's microvessels, so that skin cells can obtain sufficient oxygen and nutrients, which is conducive to the discharge of metabolic waste, maintains healthy and rosy skin, improves dullness, and enhances vitality.

Mechanism of action: The antioxidant effect of hesperidin can maintain the function of vascular endothelial cells; the anti-inflammatory properties can reduce the impact of inflammation on microvessels; it may also regulate the vasoactive substances secreted by vascular endothelial cells.

Recommended combination

Hesperidin + niacinamide: niacinamide inhibits melanin transport, hesperidin inhibits tyrosinase, synergistic whitening, making the skin whiter, suitable for those with whitening needs.

Hesperidin + Ceramide: Ceramide builds the skin barrier, and hesperidin promotes cell repair and proliferation. The combination of the two strengthens the barrier function, which is beneficial to sensitive skin and skin with damaged barriers, and can relieve problems such as sensitivity.

Hesperidin + Retinol: Retinol stimulates collagen production and anti-aging, and together with hesperidin, accelerates cell renewal and anti-aging. It is suitable for people with anti-aging needs and good tolerance.
