Science
Mechanism of Action
The extract's functionality stems from its diverse biochemical composition. Polysaccharides contribute to its hydrating and film-forming capabilities, assisting in the prevention of transepidermal water loss. Phenolic compounds, specifically oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol, impart antioxidant protection and anti-inflammatory effects. Furthermore, saponins facilitate skin conditioning, which collectively aids in mitigating flaking associated with dry skin and supports moisture retention.
