Science

TRIFOLIUM PRATENSE/VIGNA RADIATA) SPROUT EXTRACT primarily functions as a potent antioxidant, meticulously neutralizing free radicals to shield the skin from oxidative stress and environmental aggressors that contribute to premature aging. The Trifolium pratense component, abundant in phytoestrogens and isoflavones such as genistein and biochanin A, is believed to stimulate both collagen and hyaluronic acid production, thereby improving skin elasticity, increasing epidermal thickness, and boosting moisture retention, potentially through interaction with dermal estrogen receptors. Additionally, it exhibits anti-inflammatory properties that help to calm irritated skin and reduce visible redness. The extract further contributes to skin clarity by regulating sebum production, minimizing pore appearance, promoting healthy cell turnover, and removing dead skin cells, which collectively lead to a brighter, more uniform skin tone. It also offers protective benefits against UV-induced inflammation.
