Hello,
On this forum me and other people have been referring to forskolin increasing melanin. I might have found an interesting article on that:
It looks like an eyelash serum formula increases the pigmentation of the follicles:

I think this could be promising to see what ingredients help to penetrate. Of course a small eyelash tool is not big enough ( and I read as forskolin is only one of the many ingredients, the effect will be even greater with a higher dose) for those wanting to darken their hair/skin
But it would be interesting to look into the ingredients to help formulating our own melanin lotion ( many of those ingredients have nothing to do with penetration, so we can skip them)
PS: here’s a pubmed article the lady is probably referring to:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19054056
original ingredients of talika:
Aqua (water), Sodium Lactate, Carbomer, Hydrolyzed Sericin, Glycerin, Maltodextrin, Phenoxyethanol, Alcohol zdenat., Phosphatidycholine, Sodium Hydroxide, Allantoin, Dextran, Hypericum Perforatum (St. John's Wort) Extract, Pyrus Malus (apple) Fruit Extract, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract, Aesculus Hippocastanum (horse Chestnut) Extract, Urtica Dioica (nettle) Extract, Coleus Forskohlii Root Extract, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9, Acetyl Hexapeptide-1, Methyparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben.
PS: this is not a topic about eyelash tints or mascara, really about increasing melanin
Thanks in advance |
