| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Dimethylmethoxy chromanol (DMC) is a synthetic molecule with a structure similar to α-Tocopherol (vitamin E) and works as a super potent antioxidant. It is known for not only protecting against reactive oxygen species (ROS) but also against reactive nitrogen species (RNS) (both are evil reactive molecules that cause damage to cells and tissues and are responsible for several mechanisms that trigger skin aging). | [benefits]
The main benefit of Dimethylmethoxy chromanol (DMC) is protection from environmental agents and the inhibition of pro-aging damage associated with these agents. Research proves this ingredient clears unwanted cellular debris and helps alleviate damage from pollution, UV rays, and other aggressors. By mitigating this damage, DMC can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and help maintain the skin's architecture, keeping it feeling tight and youthful. DMCs also help even out skin tone as they tackle dark spots and spots associated with external damage. Due to its antioxidant benefits, DMC features some sunscreen formulas to help fortify and provide an added layer of UV ray damage mitigation.
| [Side effects]
Dimethylmethoxy chromanol (DMC) is a non-irritating skin care ingredient similar to vitamin E with anti-aging and antioxidant benefits. It is widely used in cosmetics such as sunscreens, lotions, serums and creams. The recommended use level of DMC in cosmetics is 0.01-0.05%. Only low concentrations are required in formulations, and there are no reports of toxicity and safety issues regarding its use in cosmetics. |
