Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract functions as a potent antioxidant by neutralizing pro-aging free radicals and reducing UVA-induced oxidative damage. Its skin brightening capability stems from arbutin, which inhibits tyrosinase activity to diminish melanin formation. Anti-inflammatory actions are observed through the down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β. Furthermore, it acts as a natural humectant, drawing and retaining moisture, and contains gentle acids that facilitate mild exfoliation, refining skin texture and reducing the appearance of fine lines. It also protects and strengthens the skin barrier, mitigating transepidermal water loss and associated inflammation.
