How do tanning lotions with melanin activating peptide work?
Melanin activating peptide is a kind of water-soluble biomimetic peptide (peptides that are identical to the skin) that have very low molecular weights. It is able to ‘manipulate’ processes within the epidermis by sybthesisxing melanin formation and regulating the immune system. Melanin activating peptide is exactly the same a-Melanotropin (Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone) which is naturally found in the skin. Tanning lotions with melanin activating peptide augment the protective action of the a-Melanotropin which is diminished by exposure to the sun, ageing, and some types of environmental stress. By using tanning lotions with melanin activating peptide, you do not only hasten your own skin’s tanning process – you also protect it from discoloration and damage. The melanin activating peptide controls the production and distribution of your skin’s melanin so that it increases by about 50 percent in just 21 days. Best of all, the melanin activating peptide relieves allergies and inflammat
