HYDROLYZED CARROT ROOT EXTRACT.

This extract is a rich source of beta-carotene (provitamin A), alongside potent antioxidants like Vitamins A, C, E, lycopene, and chlorogenic acid. Its primary action involves neutralizing free radicals, thereby mitigating premature aging and environmental stress. Topically, its beta-carotene can convert to Vitamin A, facilitating the visible reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. It stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, leading to improved skin density, elasticity, and firmness. Furthermore, it acts as a humectant and emollient, drawing moisture into the skin and reinforcing the skin barrier. Compounds such as chlorogenic acid and Vitamin A contribute to regulating melanin production, resulting in a more even skin tone and reduced hyperpigmentation. Anti-inflammatory properties soothe the skin, and it provides photoprotective benefits against sun damage, though it does not replace SPF.
