Activoil™ Spotless ZRO


Activoil™ Spotless ZRO is a 100% oil-soluble active ingredient specifically formulated to enhance skin radiance and lightening while effectively reducing the appearance of age spots and preventing their formation. This stabilized lipophilic complex combines the potent benefits of blackcurrant seed oil, rich in Omega 6-3-6 fatty acids, and Paeonia extract, rich in paeonol, renowned for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-melanogenic properties.

The blackcurrant seed oil, rich in biologically active fatty acids such as linoleic acid, works by inhibiting melanogenesis at the tyrosinase level, thereby reducing age spots and promoting a more even skin tone. The Paeonia extract, derived from the "King of Flowers" and widely used in Traditional Asian Medicine, enhances the skin’s natural brightness and helps prevent UV-induced skin redness.

In comparison with blackcurrant seed oil, Activoil™ Spotless ZRO displays an oxidative stability of more than 170-fold when exposed to extreme oxidative conditions. This innovative combination provides long-term improvement in skin luminescence and offers a comprehensive solution for advanced skin lightening and anti-aging formulations.

Ideal for anti-aging, skin lightening products, and functional makeup, Activoil™ Spotless ZRO is the perfect choice for formulations targeting dyschromia, preventing sunspots, and promoting radiant, youthful skin.
