Product Description

Phytic Acid Powder is a plant‑derived multi‑functional cosmetic raw material extracted from grain bran and seeds. It dissolves easily in water and appears as free‑flowing white crystalline fine powder.

As a natural chelating ingredient with antioxidant and mild skin‑refining properties, it captures metal ions inside cosmetic systems to reduce active‑substance oxidation and finished‑product discoloration. It mildly inhibits tyrosinase activity, brings gentle exfoliation and evens dull, uneven skin tone. It improves rough and dull skin condition and supports brightening effects.
