Antioxidant

Antioxidants in the cosmetic industry are compounds, such as Vitamins C and E, formulated to combat the damaging effects of free radicals and oxidative stress on the skin. They work by neutralizing these unstable molecules, which are often generated by environmental factors like UV radiation and pollution. This protective action helps to reduce visible signs of aging, such as fine lines and hyperpigmentation, thereby promoting a healthier and more youthful skin appearance.
