If Cleopatra Made TikToks She’d Be An Influencer For Food In Skin Care

Using food in skin care isn’t new.  In fact, it’s been around for centuries.  Cleopatra is the OG of using food in skin care.

Like, can you imagine if she had social media?  LOL

What if Cleopatra made TikToks?  You can be 100% sure one of  TikToks would have been something like this……

A 60 second video  of her explaining….. “Benefits of Milk + Honey to get  you from teenage princess to Ruler of Egypt! How I got my glow up from these ritual milk + honey baths.”

You can almost feel her anxiety after she posts the TikTok, just waiting for Mark Antony to like it.

2. Jackfruit

Illuminating White – E.F. Tropics’s Illuminating Collection

Jackfruit or Artocarpus heterophyllus seed extract is a way that E.F. Tropics uses food in skin care. It’s one of the 3 sources of Resveratrol in Illuminating White, the other two are Artocarpus lakoocha wood extract and Pterocarpus arsupium bark extract.  

Illuminating White attacks the hyperpigmentation issue from different angles.The traditional whitening process is achieved by competitive inhibition of tyrosine activity, thus preventing melanin formation. Our product tackles the skin discoloration problem from more than one angle.

Illuminating White contains active ingredients that 1.  Stop tyrosine activity by competitive and non-competitive processes. 2.  Prevent melanosomes formation in the melanocytes. 3.  Prevent the release of melanosomes from the melanocytes. 4. Interfere with the uptake of the melanosomes into the epidermal cells. Melanosomes that do not enter the cell shortly after they are released are destroyed in the extra cellular matrix. 5. Actively reduce existing melanin by anti-oxidants, Resveratrol and others.                  –
