VITIS VINIFERA/LABRUSCA FRUIT EXTRACT
Description
Vitis Vinifera/Labrusca Fruit Extract is a potent botanical ingredient derived from grape varieties, combining the beneficial properties of both wine grapes (Vitis vinifera) and fox grapes (Vitis labrusca). This extract is rich in polyphenols, particularly resveratrol, anthocyanins, and proanthocyanidins, which contribute to its powerful antioxidant properties. These compounds help neutralize free radicals, protecting skin cells from oxidative stress and environmental damage.
The extract exhibits notable anti-inflammatory effects, helping to soothe irritated skin and reduce redness. Its astringent properties can help tighten pores and improve skin texture. Vitis Vinifera/Labrusca Fruit Extract also contains natural alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), which gently exfoliate the skin, promoting cell turnover and enhancing overall skin clarity.
Studies have shown that this ingredient may stimulate collagen production, potentially improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, it has demonstrated antimicrobial properties, which can be beneficial in managing acne-prone skin. The extract's high concentration of vitamins C and E further supports skin health by promoting a brighter, more even complexion and reinforcing the skin's natural barrier function.
