Brand FAQs
How does Gluta-C Work?
As represented by the brand name, Gluta-C products combine the two master antioxidants Glutathione and Vitamin C to lighten and brighten the skin tone, improve skin complexion, reverse signs of photoaging, restore the skin from damage, and protect the skin from harmful pollutants all at the same time.
Why does Gluta-C have Glutathione together with Vitamin C?
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant. When taken orally, it is an effective whitening agent while making the body healthier and stronger. When applied topically, Glutathione works best when combined with other antioxidants like Vitamin C. Together, they boost each other’s activity and double their effectiveness. This results to a lighter, brighter and more radiant complexion.
How long does Gluta-C take to lighten the skin?
Initial improvements may be observed as early as 7-14 days of use. It is highly recommended to use the Gluta-C range of products and follow the Gluta-C skin care regimen to achieve your skin’s maximum whitening and brightening potential as fast as possible.
Will my skin darken if I expose my skin to the sun while using Gluta-C products?
The Gluta-C products with SPF protection should be enough to keep your skin protected from daily sun exposure. However, for prolonged sun exposure, it is best to apply additional sun protection to avoid darkening and other possible UV-related skin damage.
Which product line to use: Gluta-C Intense Whitening or Kojic Plus+?
Gluta-C Intense Whitening is recommended for people with dry, rough and sensitive skin. Gluta-C Kojic Plus+ is recommended for people with oily and acne-prone skin.
Will I experience purging or breakouts if I start using Gluta-C products?
There is a minor possibility of purging or breakouts to occur as Gluta-C detoxifies and removes the current impurities present on your skin. Minor blemishes may appear during the detoxification process but these will disappear with continued use of the product. However, you experience redness, inflammation or itchiness due to skin irritation, it is best to consult with your dermatologist.
Can Gluta-C cause skin irritation or allergies?
Gluta-C products are dermatologist-tested and proven safe and effective on the skin. For first time users of Gluta-C or whitening products, we advise doing a patch test before regular use. Try the product under your jaw or on the inside of your elbow and observe.
Can I use Gluta-C if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
In general, all whitening products are not recommended for pregnant and lactating mothers. If you are expecting, nursing or breastfeeding, it is best to consult your physician before using any whitening product.
As a safer alternative, you can check out our sister brand, Moringa-O2.
Is Gluta-C safe for children?
The Gluta-C is not recommended for children 3 years old and below.
Can I use products from other brands while using Gluta-C products?
Although Gluta-C products are dermatologist tested safe and effective, we still recommend discontinuing the use of other products a few days before switching to Gluta-C products. This is to avoid possible compatibility issues and to ensure that you get the most out of your Gluta-C skin care regimen.
Can I immediately switch from other whitening brands to Gluta-C?
Although Gluta-C products are dermatologist-tested to be compatible with one another, we recommend a rest period of 1-2 weeks in between to avoid possible incompatibility issues when switching from other whitening brands.
