About
An acetate derivative of tetrahydrocurcumin (a reduced metabolite of the spice curcumin) used as a skin-conditioning antioxidant.
Tetrahydrocurcumin diacetate is the diacetate ester of tetrahydrocurcumin, which is itself a reduced metabolite of curcumin (the primary active in turmeric spice). Acetylation improves curcuminoid stability. No EU Annex restrictions apply and no GHS hazard classifications are listed. The ingredient functions as an antioxidant skin-conditioning agent, and the tetrahydrocurcumin scaffold is considered significantly safer than curcumin itself.
