Paulownia Imperialis Bark/flower/leaf Extract

This extract exerts its multifaceted effects through key biological pathways. Its potent antioxidant action is attributed to a rich composition of flavonoids, phenolic compounds, and verbascoside, which effectively scavenge free radicals and mitigate oxidative stress. Anti-inflammatory properties are evident through potential inhibition of TNF-α secretion and NF-κB nuclear translocation, with verbascoside contributing significantly to this pathway. The ingredient also demonstrates antibacterial efficacy, particularly against Gram-positive bacteria suchilus such as *Staphylococcus aureus*. Additionally, it actively reduces DNA damage and induces repair processes within skin cells, acts as an astringent to refine and tighten skin, and helps regulate sebum production, making it beneficial for oily or acne-prone conditions. Its soothing attributes alleviate skin and scalp discomfort.
