NYMPHAEA ALBA LEAF CELL EXTRACT.

This extract enhances skin vitality through multiple pathways. It functions as a potent free radical scavenger, actively mitigating oxidative stress and shielding the skin from environmental aggressors. Hydration is significantly improved by stimulating the synthesis of epidermal hyaluronic acid and aquaporins-3, critical for moisture retention. Its soothing action stems from a reduction in TNF-α, which effectively calms inflammation and redness. Key active components include flavonoids for antioxidant defense, tannins providing astringent qualities and support for skin tone, mucilage and polysaccharides acting as humectants, and phenolic compounds known for their calming effects. The extract also demonstrates wound-healing capabilities by enhancing cell migration and regulating proteins like AKT1, ESR1, and EGFR.
