Science
Mechanism of Action
Lycium Barbarum Seed Oil deeply permeates the skin, efficiently restoring its natural moisture barrier and mitigating trans-epidermal water loss. Its rich profile of antioxidants, including vitamin C and beta-carotene, actively neutralizes fat-soluble free radicals, safeguarding cellular membranes from lipid peroxidation and thus reducing signs of photoaging. The oil also demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties, effectively calming redness and irritation. Essential fatty acids within the oil balance skin moisture, while its ability to stimulate intracellular oxygenation and boost collagen production contributes to enhanced skin elasticity and a reduction in wrinkle depth. It further regulates sebum production without occluding pores, stimulates microcirculation, and accelerates cell turnover, aiding in the attenuation of melanin deposits for a more uniform skin tone.
