The science behind methylene blue in skincare
Methylene blue is a compound first synthesized in 1876 and widely studied for its biochemical properties. In recent years, it has gained attention in skincare research due to its antioxidant capacity and its interaction with cellular energy processes. In cosmetic formulations, methylene blue is used as an active ingredient in anti-aging creams to help protect the skin against oxidative stress and environmental aggressors. Scientific publications have explored its potential role in maintaining healthy-looking skin at a cellular level.
Oxidative stress and visible skin aging
Skin aging occurs through both intrinsic (natural) and extrinsic (environmental) processes. Exposure to sunlight, pollution, and lifestyle factors contributes to oxidative stress, which can accelerate visible signs of aging such as fine lines and loss of elasticity. Antioxidant skincare products are commonly used to help neutralize free radicals and support the skin’s natural defense mechanisms. Methylene blue is included in formulations for its stability and antioxidant properties within topical applications.
