About S-ARACHIDONOYL/LINOLENOYL/LINOLEOYL GLUTATHIONE
A sophisticated antioxidant that combines glutathione (the body's master antioxidant) with essential fatty acids — designed for advanced anti-aging and skin brightening.
Detailed Analysis
S-Arachidonoyl/Linolenoyl/Linoleoyl Glutathione is a thioester conjugate of glutathione (GSH) with mixed fatty acids including arachidonic, linolenic, and linoleic acid. This lipophilic glutathione derivative is designed for enhanced skin penetration compared to water-soluble glutathione. It functions as an antioxidant, combining the radical-scavenging capacity of glutathione's thiol group with the skin barrier-supporting properties of polyunsaturated fatty acids. No GHS hazard codes. A relatively novel cosmetic ingredient with limited specific safety data, but both components (glutathione and essential fatty acids) have excellent safety profiles.
