Precursors for radiant skin!
Melanin is the magical element that gives our skin that golden and bright tone that we all admire, especially in summer. But what's behind this substance? What are the precursors and activators who make this wonder of nature possible?
To fully understand the role of the precursors of melanin, we must first take a look at the process of his production itself. Melanin is produced in melanocytes, specialized cells of our skin, through a process called melanogenesis. It is this process that determines the color of our skin, our hair and eyes. UVB ultraviolet radiation stimulate the production of melanocytes, therefore of melanin.
One of the key precursors for melanin production is tyrosine, an essential amino acid that is found in many foods that we eat daily. The tyrosine is absorbed by the cells of the melanocytes and converted into a Dopa, which in turn is transformed into a dopaquinone, a fundamental step in the synthesis of melanin. This is where activators come into play.
Melanina activators
Melanin activators are substances that accelerate or enhance the production process of melanin itself. But the real key to obtaining luminous and uniform skin is to find the right balance between protection from environmental damage and the stimulation of melanin production. Protecting the skin from harmful UV rays with a good sun cream is essential to prevent skin damage and inhibit the excessive production of melanin, which can lead to hyperpigmentation and dark spots.

Why are we already talking about Melanin activators?
Let's see some curiosities together: in Italy predominant phototypes are 2/3/4, with tendentially clear or medium color skin, which requires being adequately urged to be able to tan in a homogeneous way. We deepened the phototypes here.
Hence the use of Melanin activators, always combined with a protection with high factor solar filter (at least SPF 30, better if SPF 50+), to prevent Uva rays damaging the dermis, that is, the deepest layer of the skin , in which the fibroblasts are located, responsible for the production of elastin and collagen. If elastin and collagen are fragmented due to excessive exposure, the former appear wrinkles or the existing ones are accentuated. Have you ever heard of anti photo effect aging? We talked about it in this #Beautyblog.
