FRAXINUS ORNUS SEED EXTRACT.

Insufficient Data CAS 84929-21-5 / SKIN CONDITIONING

Fraxinus Ornus Seed Extract is a botanical ingredient recognized for its potent antioxidant and hydrating properties. It functions to protect dermal structures from environmental stressors and enhance skin's moisture retention, contributing to overall skin health and resilience.

Summary

Antioxidant Hydrating Skin Conditioning Barrier Support Anti-inflammatory Acne Treatment Support Anti-aging Support

Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract operates by scavenging free radicals, thereby protecting dermal cell membranes and the extracellular matrix from reactive oxygen species and UV radiation-induced damage. It also demonstrates hydrating capabilities through its ability to bind water molecules, which enhances the skin's moisture-retaining capacity, supporting volume, firmness, and elasticity. Preliminary in vitro data further suggests it can improve epidermal barrier function, mitigate inflammation, and potentially aid in acne management by inhibiting bacterial films via components like mannitol. Broader Fraxinus plant extracts indicate roles in regulating cellular proliferation and inflammation pathways, including increasing Bcl-2 expression and activating Nrf-2/ARE for enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity.
