Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract operates primarily through its high concentration of phenolic compounds and flavonoids, particularly quercetin, which confer potent antioxidant activity by neutralizing free radicals and mitigating oxidative stress. Its anti-inflammatory properties soothe irritated skin, while chelating activity helps to sequester ferrous ions. Furthermore, it exhibits regenerating qualities, supporting the skin's natural recovery processes and enhancing resilience against external aggressors.
