Description

Acetyl Glycyl Beta-Alanine is a skin-brightening peptide known commercially as GenoWhite. The manufacturer states that it blocks the pigmentation mechanism in two ways: first, it inhibits melanin-producing enzymes such as Tyrosinase so less pigment forms, and second, it impedes pigment transfer to the upper layers of the skin where it becomes visible through small organelles called melanosomes. In-vivo testing by the manufacturer on human subjects shows spot-fading results after 56 days of using 2% GenoWhite, with initial visible results appearing after 14 days.
