WHAT ARE THE KEY ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IN CRYSTAL TOMATO® SKIN CLARITY CREAM AND WHAT DO THEY DO?

Crystal Tomato® Skin Clarity Cream incorporates 15 synergistic active ingredients to specifically inhibit the different pathways in the production of melanin inside skin cells.

Together, they help to lighten facial spots and inhibit new formations of melanin.

HOW IS CRYSTAL TOMATO® SKIN CLARITY CREAM DIFFERENT FROM OTHER DEPIGMENTATION CREAMS?

Crystal Tomato® Skin Clarity Cream is formulated to reduce the four (4) main causes of hyperpigmentation. They are:

1) UVA/B Rays
2) Free Radicals
3) Inflammation
4) Melanin Formation

Most topical depigmentation products in the market, however, contain only one to three active ingredients that target at reducing pigmentation issues. Recent research has shown that this is not as effective.

The trial involved 44 Melasma patients selected from those who had either been treated with or were still undergoing the industry gold standard “Triple Therapy” (Hydroquinone, Steroid and Retin-A) treatment for Melasma, but who had not or were not achieving the desired results.

These patients saw improvements by 25% after just 56 days of Crystal Tomato® Skin Clarity Cream. The result was further enhanced to over 50% improvement after the 84th day.

The results of the Crystal Tomato® and Crystal Tomato® Skin Clarity Cream Clinical Study were published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Pigmentary Disorders.

WILL MELASMA AND OTHER PIGMENTATION PROBLEMS RE-SURFACE UPON DISCONTINUATION OF CRYSTAL TOMATO® SKIN CLARITY CREAM?
