Designed to improve skin appearance, Nivitol contains a unique enzyme-blocking, or tyrosinase-inhibiting, agent that reduces skin pigmentation and safely lightens skin color without any adverse side effects often found with harsh chemicals. It is highly compatible in formulation with other skin care ingredients and can be used as an active agent in creams, lotions, gels, masks and other cosmetic products.
