Glutathione + papaya = the white stuff
MANILA, Philippines - The pale glow of whitened skin is beckoning increasing numbers of women and even men, if the different brands of whitening products mushrooming on store shelves all over the country are any indication.
Top Filipino skincare company Age Defying Solutions Philippines Corporation (Adsphil corp) said that the demand for skin-whitening agents is made more popular by the phenomenon that almost all the top local actors and actresses on TV soaps and movies are of light complexion — creating an association between whiter skin and attractiveness among the public.
The two primary active agents in whitening products are the antioxidants glutathione and papaya, long reputed to have whitening and age-defying properties, And now, these have been combined by Adsphil in their GluPa products.
Whereas other products on the market only use one or the other — glutathione or papaya — GluPa products perfectly combine them in their soaps, capsules, lotion and cream products.
The GluPa capsule protects against the effects of stress and aging, also boosting the immune system other than producing the desired skin whiteness, the manufacturers say.
GluPa soap, lotion and cream are available at South Star Drug stores, South Supermarket, Manson drugstores, and Medexpress.
