Science
Mechanism of Action
This ingredient operates as a humectant, drawing and retaining moisture within the stratum corneum to improve skin hydration levels. *In vitro* research on extracts from the *Dracocephalum* genus, including *Dracocephalum nutans*, has demonstrated antioxidant activity. Furthermore, observations from other species in the genus indicate potential for anti-inflammatory action, support for skin firmness, inhibition of collagen degradation, and reduction in melanin synthesis, suggesting a multi-faceted influence on skin health.
