Product Desciption
1.Lycopene Overview
Lycopene is a kind of fat-soluble natural pigment. It belongs to a carotenoid in structure. It is naturally present in some fruits, vegetables and green plants, including tomato, carrot and crocus flower. We Lycopene is derived from tomato; it is 80% specification cosmetic grade natural ingredient. Lycopene, as a natural cosmetic raw material, has a variety of biological activities. It has a strong and broad spectrum of anti-oxidation property. Its antioxidant capacity is 100 times that of vitamin E. Lycopene can prevent lipid oxidation by quenching singlet oxygen. It protects bio-film from free radical damage, maintains human immunity, and delays aging. Lycopene can scavenge excessive free radicals caused by ultraviolet light. Thereby, it can achieve effect of sun protection. Lycopene can also promote collagen formation, and inhibit collagen decomposition by collagen enzyme. Thus, Lycopene can be used as anti-wrinkle and anti-aging agent in eye cream; it can fade out fine wrinkles around eyes. Furthermore, Lycopene, due to its red color, also can be used as natural coloring agent in make-ups such as lipstick, blusher and eye shadow. Therefore, Lycopene can be used in anti-aging, whitening, sunscreen, anti-wrinkle and other effective cosmetics.
3. Specifications
Lycopene has outstanding antioxidant capacity thanks to its multi-directional antioxidant mechanism: Lycopene has a direct function to scavenge free radicals. Lycopene(0.4~3mg/kg) effectively removes hydroxyl radical and superoxide anion radical. It also can convert activity of singlet oxygen into heat energy, and directly quench singlet oxygen. Lycopene's ability to quench singlet oxygen is more than twice as much as beta-carotene and 100 times as much as vitamin E. Lycopene can indirectly scavenge ROS by promoting activity of endogenous antioxidant enzyme. When Lycopene is absorbed through the skin, it can inhibit the excessive accumulation of free radicals; and it enhances antioxidant system of skin, thus delaying aging.
2.Sun protection
Lycopene can scavenge excessive free radicals caused by ultraviolet light. In addition, Lycopene has direct antagonism to UV. It has been reported that Lycopene can reduce inflammation in human body; and it maintains normal cell metabolism; also it prevents forming UV irradiation erythema, and reduces DNA damage. Lycopene increases skin's tolerance to ultraviolet light. It can reduce the amount of sunscreen and the irritation of sunscreen cosmetics.
3.Anti-pollution
The polluted atmosphere contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitro polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NPAHs). Under ultraviolet irradiation, phototoxic effect caused by PAHs can seriously damage skin, including accelerating free radicals formation. So Lycopene can be used as an anti-pollution active ingredient from natural source to play the following roles: Lycopene can remove the phototoxic effect of PAHs by scavenging free radicals; meanwhile, it can directly eliminate toxic substances in cigarettes and automobile exhaust.
4.Other function
Lycopene itself is bright red. It can replace some red pigments synthesized by chemical method. As a natural cosmetic coloring agent, Lycopene is applied in make-ups such as lipstick, blusher, and eye shadow. Its color is more natural and safe. Some raw materials such as plant oils are often added to cosmetics. In order to prevent oxidative rancidity of the oils, synthetic stabilizers are generally added. These stabilizers often have certain toxicity. However, Lycopene is natural, non-toxic, and has strong antioxidant capacity. It can be used as a natural cosmetic stabilizer to prevent oil rancidity. So it can substitute chemical synthesis stabilizer such as BHA and BHT.

6.Lycopene Application & Attention
Lycopene is widely applied in sunscreen, whitening, anti-aging and anti-wrinkle cosmetics, such as essence, emulsion, facial mask, cream, sunscreen, eye cream, etc. Lycopene, as a natural colorant, can also be used in lipstick, blusher, eye shadow and other make-ups.
Attention
1.The presence of unsaturated double bonds makes Lycopene very unstable and prone to degradation and isomerization. Ultraviolet light can accelerate the degradation of Lycopene. Thus it should be kept under low temperature, and avoid light.
2.Acid has a strong destructive effect on Lycopene; and Lycopene is stable under alkaline condition.
3.Lycopene has poor stability to iron and copper, so iron and copper containers should be avoided during storage.
4.The oxidant H2O2 and reducing agent Na2SO3 can cause damage to Lycopene, while antioxidant vitamin C can improve the stability of Lycopene.

2. Lycopene Botanical Source
Tomato (Latin name: Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is an annual plant; it also is a thermophile vegetable. Tomato is native to South America. It is cultivated in many provinces in north and south of China. Raw tomatoes can provide vitamin C, while cooked tomatoes provide antioxidant benefits. The longer cooked tomatoes are heated, the more potent antioxidants, such as Lycopene and others. Tomatoes are rich in nutrients, such as vitamin B, vitamin C, carotene and so on. Therefore, tomato has lots of biological activities. And its extract can be used in cosmetics, medicine, health care products and other industries.
