CONVOLVULUS EUPHRATICUS EXTRACT

Description

Convolvulus Euphraticus Extract, derived from the Convolvulus euphraticus plant native to the Middle East, is an emerging ingredient in skincare formulations. This botanical extract is rich in polyphenols, flavonoids, and antioxidants, offering potent anti-inflammatory and free radical scavenging properties.

The extract has shown promise in protecting skin cells from oxidative stress and UV-induced damage, potentially reducing the appearance of premature aging. Its anti-inflammatory effects may help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness associated with various skin conditions.

Research suggests that Convolvulus Euphraticus Extract may also possess mild antimicrobial properties, which could be beneficial in managing acne-prone skin. The ingredient has demonstrated an ability to enhance skin barrier function by promoting the production of ceramides and other essential lipids.

When incorporated into skincare products, Convolvulus Euphraticus Extract is typically used at concentrations between 0.1% and 2%. It is generally well-tolerated by most skin types and can be combined with other active ingredients to create comprehensive skincare formulations. However, as with any new ingredient, patch testing is recommended to ensure individual compatibility.
