Tetrahydrocurcumin is a chemical raw material derived from curcumin. It is widely utilized in whitening, freckling, and anti-oxidation skin care products owing to its notable antioxidant, anti-tumor, and anti-atherosclerosis properties. Additionally, it serves as an innovative pharmaceutical raw material and intermediate, as well as an effective food additive.
98% HPLC grade with low impurities, strictly compliant with cosmetic and food supplement regulations.
As a hydrogenated derivative of curcumin, it is an off-white powder without yellow pigment. It will not discolor formulations or stain skin, greatly expanding formula compatibility.
High ORAC value effectively scavenges free radicals, protects skin from photo-oxidative damage, preserves collagen, and combats premature aging.
Unlike unstable curcumin, Tetrahydrocurcumin resists light and heat degradation, notably extending the shelf life of finished cosmetics.

It is commonly used in skincare formulations as an antioxidant ingredient and is also used in products designed for skin brightening and even-looking skin tone.
Tetrahydrocurcumin is a reduced form of Curcumin. Compared with Curcumin, it is much lighter in color and has better stability, which can make it more suitable for certain cosmetic formulations.
Conventional Tetrahydrocurcumin should not automatically be described as freely water-soluble. Its solubility depends on the solvent and formulation system, so compatibility testing is recommended.
