NYMPHAEA TETRAGONA PHYTOPLACENTA EXTRACT.

This extract is rich in natural antioxidants, including gallic acid, tannic acid, flavonoids, alkaloids, glycosides, and sterols, which neutralize free radicals and reactive oxygen species to prevent oxidative damage. It directly protects human epidermal keratinocytes from UVB-induced apoptosis by modulating ROS-eliminating pathways, thereby reducing ROS generation, mitigating mitochondrial dysfunction, and inhibiting caspase-3 activity. Beyond cellular protection, it promotes collagen and elastin synthesis for anti-aging and anti-wrinkle effects, enhances overall skin vitality and elasticity, and may alleviate irritation and hyperpigmentation through moisturizing and soothing actions. Furthermore, it aids in bilirubin breakdown, potentially improving skin tone and reducing sallowness.
