Tetrahydrocurcuminoids is well known as one of the natural compounds present in turmeric that brings about anti-inflammatory properties. Regular curcumin are yellow in colour as they contain yellow curcuminoids of turmeric. Tetrahydrocurcuminoids, also known as THC, are colorless in nature and one of the major active metabolites derived from curcuminoids that have significance as therapeutic interventional molecules but differ from regular curcumin in both physical appearance and mode of action. It can therefore be used in color free cosmetic products that currently employ conventional and synthetic antioxidants
Simply said, Tetrahydrocurcumin are active metabolites and antioxidant substances derived from turmeric. When we consume turmeric from our diet, it will be converted from curcuminoids to THC to provide anti-inflammatory benefits and relief of joint and muscular pain.
Tetrahydrocurcuminoids are phenolic in nature, acting as antioxidants, protecting against free radicals and preventing the generation of free radicals.  Unlike yellow curcuminoids.
THC scavenges free radicals that are generated through exposure to ultraviolet radiation, chemicals or other environmental stress factors which age the skin.
THC also helps to improve the shelf life of topical formulations by inhibiting the autoxidation of fats by offering protection against rancidity of the fat components used in the formulation of cosmetics.
Tetrahydrocurcumin has been shown to efficiently inhibit tyrosinase. As such, it is an effective skin lightening agent with multi functional topical benefits. It has been tested to determine its safety for topical use with no irritant or sensitization side effects
The anti-inflammatory effects of THC combined with their efficient antioxidant action render them useful as ingredients in anti-aging formulations, skin lightening and brightening products and topical formulations designed to maintain general skin health and integrity.
