Get Glowing, Healthy Skin With The New MD Therapy Glutatone Whitening Set

This derma-approved line is packed with whitening and antioxidant powers.

May 19, 2022

Before becoming widely known as a whitening ingredient, glutathione is, first and foremost, an antioxidant. And not just any antioxidant. Researchers have actually dubbed it as the body’s “master antioxidant” because it is the most powerful naturally-occurring antioxidant in all human cells, and is crucial in immunity-boosting and detoxification. Comprised largely of three amino acids (glutamine, glycine, and cysteine), It’s known for its extraordinary power to neutralize free radicals, a.k.a. unstable atoms that damage the cells, causing aging and illness.

As it so happens, this antioxidant power also comes with another effect: skin brightening. Since glutathione is able to minimize sun damage and oxidative stress—the primary causes of pigmentation and skin darkening—it’s tremendously helpful in improving skin’s overall tone, health, and glow.

Glutathione Power in Skin Care

Recognizing the continuous demand for brightening skincare in the local scene, derma-grade brand MD Therapy has come up with a premium skincare line that delivers optimum skin whitening and antioxidant benefits safely and effectively: the MD Therapy Glutatone Set.

Featuring glutathione as its main ingredient, it also boasts of other star components, like arbutin, another potent skin brightener known for being extra gentle on skin; ceramides, fats or lipids that are important for retaining skin moisture; and other damage-fighting antioxidants such as Vitamin C and E.

“Arbutin , specifically alpha arbutin, is considered to be an ideal skin lightening agent,” says Dr. Maximin Navarro, Bella Pelle’s resident dermatologist and a fellow of the Philippine Dermatological Society (PDS). “It assists in the blocking of epidermal melanin biosynthesis. and is as effective as hydroquinone without the toxicity and side effects usually associated with hydroquinone use.”

“Meanwhile, Vitamin C and E are essential antioxidants,” he says. “These protect our skin and body against oxidative stress and from free radicals formed due to prolonged sun exposure as well as exposure to pollutants and harmful toxins.”

Here’s a quick look at the products in the set, which you can also buy individually:

MD Therapy Glutatone A+ Cream (Individual price: P1,800)

Don’t forget to heed these professional tips from Dr. Navarro. “When going for a skin lightening routine, sun protection and the avoidance of prolonged sun exposure should go hand in hand with your regimen,” he says. “Make sure to properly apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30, and protects against UVA, UVB, blue light, and infrared radiation.”

He also advises starting slow. “When using new products, go gradual with the application of topical formulas. Start using them every other day for a week or two, then gradually increase the frequency of application in the succeeding weeks.”
