PANAX GINSENG FLOWER/LEAF/STEM EXTRACT.

Valuable / ASTRINGENT, HUMECTANT

Panax Ginseng Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract is a multi-beneficial botanical active, distinct from the root, rich in bioactive compounds like ginsenosides. This ingredient is meticulously selected to rejuvenate the skin by significantly boosting collagen synthesis, enhancing barrier function, and providing robust antioxidant protection against environmental stressors. It supports the skin's natural regeneration processes for a visibly healthier and more resilient complexion.

Summary

Antioxidant Barrier-repairing Skin-soothing Collagen Booster Hydrating Regenerative Anti-aging Skin Brightening

Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract operates on multiple levels to comprehensively support skin health and resilience. It actively strengthens the skin's natural barrier, offering protection from environmental aggressors such as pollution and UV radiation, which are known contributors to premature aging. Its potent antioxidant properties enable it to effectively neutralize free radicals and inhibit the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within skin cells, preventing oxidative damage. At a cellular level, it stimulates dermal fibroblasts to synthesize essential collagens (primarily Type I and Type III) and helps combat skin sagging by activating the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) pathway, crucial for maintaining skin strength. Furthermore, the extract promotes natural regeneration functions, supports skin hydration by forming a protective film to limit transepidermal water loss, facilitates wound healing, and contributes to a brighter complexion by inhibiting melanin production.

Sensitization risk Low

While generally considered safe and well-tolerated for topical use, rare instances of mild allergic reactions, sensitivity, skin rashes, itching, or irritation have been reported, necessitating a patch test prior to widespread application. It is important to note that the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has not specifically evaluated the safety of extracts derived from the flower, leaf, or stem of Panax ginseng, with existing CIR assessments typically focusing solely on root-derived ingredients.
