Tetrahydrocurcuminoids: The Complete Guide

Tetrahydrocurcuminoids are a refined, skin-friendly form of the antioxidants found in turmeric. This guide explains what they are.

What are they?

Turmeric’s antioxidant curcuminoids are powerful but deeply yellow and unstable. Tetrahydrocurcuminoids are a hydrogenated, near-colourless, more stable form that keeps the antioxidant benefit without staining skincare or skin — making them practical to use in creams.

What do they do for skin?

  • Antioxidant defence — help protect skin from oxidative stress.
  • Soothing support — contribute to a calm, comfortable feel.

Where we use them

They provide gentle antioxidant support in Cream Extreme Intensive Repair. See the Ingredient Glossary.
