WActive® MA

Madecassoside Acid. WActive® MA by Shenzhen Winkey Technology acts as a repairing and soothing agent. It is a natural compound derived from the Centella asiatica plant. It is used in scar repair, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant treatment and skin whitening. It also acts as calming agent which soothes by inhibiting the TLR2 signaling pathway and curbing the release of inflammatory factor IL-1ß, thus alleviating skin redness and irritation. It increases HA content through upregulating HA synthases and suppressing H₂O₂-stimulated ROS expression.

• It can enhance skin hydration by boosting the production of hyaluronic acid and hyaluronic acid synthase which is necessary for skin repair.
• It inhibits the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1ß, TLR2 and nuclear translocation of NF-?B in P. acnes stimulated THP-1 human monocytic cells.
• WActive® MA effectively inhibits UV-induced hyperpigmentation for skin brightening, promoting a brighter and more even complexion.
