Insufficient Data CAS - / SKIN CONDITIONING

Sorbus Alnifolia Leaf/Stem Extract is a botanical ingredient rich in polyphenolic phytochemicals. It demonstrates promising antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, alongside a notable ability to inhibit elastase, which supports skin's integrity and resilience against aging and environmental stressors.

Summary

Antioxidant Anti-inflammatory Elastase Inhibitor Skin Conditioning

Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract operates through its rich content of polyphenolic phytochemicals, which are key contributors to its observed antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Furthermore, it actively inhibits elastase, an enzyme responsible for degrading elastin, thereby supporting skin elasticity and offering protective benefits against UV-induced damage and the visible signs of aging.
