Tranexamic Acid is a synthetic amino acid that functions as a skin-conditioning agent and astringent. In cosmetics, it functions on the skin as a barrier repair ingredient and seems able to help skin recover from damage. It is an effective skin lightener when used in cosmetic formulations.
At the same time, it blocks the transfer of pigment from melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) to keratinocytes (the keratin-synthesising cells found in the outermost layer of skin – the epidermis). Tranexamic acid also calms the skin and helps restore the skin barrier.
