What is Glutathione?
A simple, honest explainer on glutathione, what it is, and why it's a popular part of beauty & wellness routines.
The basics
Glutathione is a naturally-occurring antioxidant made of three amino acids (cysteine, glutamine and glycine). Your body produces it on its own, and it's found in many foods.
Because it's an antioxidant, it's widely associated with supporting a healthy-looking, radiant complexion — which is why it has become so popular in skincare and wellness.
Why people use it
Many people add glutathione to their routine to help support a brighter, more even-looking skin tone and overall wellbeing.
It comes in several forms — capsules, drinks/sachets, soaps and lotions, and professional injectable sets used under qualified supervision.
What to keep in mind
Results vary from person to person and consistency matters. Glutathione is a supplement and lifestyle support — not a medicine.
Always read the product label, follow the directions, and consult a qualified healthcare professional if you're pregnant, nursing, on medication, or considering an injectable form.
