Your skin color comes from a natural pigment called melanin. Melanin pigment is
synthesized in specialized cytoplasmic organelles called melanosomes Within the
melanosome, the enzymatic conversion of the amino acid tyrosine to melanin is
catalyzed by the enzyme tyrosinase. The melanosomes in darker portions of the
skin are more active than those found in normal areas of the body. Ideally, it
is best to target this process in multiple ways by dealing with not only the
melanosomes, but also the enzyme tyrosinase.
