Scientific Analysis of the Ingredients in Forever Young Radiance Serum

Extract from Rhododendron Ferrugineum, known as Alpine Rose

Increase in skin elasticity and rejuvenating effect: Studies indicate that Alpine Rose extract contributes to improved skin elasticity and has a rejuvenating effect. This is achieved by eliminating senescent cells that have ceased to divide, thus contributing to skin aging and a dull complexion.
Protection against oxidative damage: The extract contains antioxidants that effectively protect against damage caused by oxidative influences and environmental pollution.
Prevention of photoaging: Supports the protection of the skin from damage caused by UV rays and reduces the risk of photoaging.

Vitamin C

Tetra-isopalmitoyl ascorbic acid (VC-IP) prevents UV-induced skin pigmentation through its antioxidant properties. This study shows that VC-IP acts as a pro-vitamin C and can effectively suppress UVB-induced skin pigmentation, possibly through its antioxidant activity (Ochiai et al., 2006).
Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) plays a crucial role in maintaining skin health by promoting the differentiation of keratinocytes, reducing melanin synthesis, and offering antioxidant protection against UV-induced photodamage. A deficiency in Vitamin C can cause or exacerbate the onset and development of certain skin diseases, such as atopic dermatitis (AD) and Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) (Kaiqin Wang et al., 2018).
Vitamin C prevents UV-induced pigmentation in healthy subjects in a dose-dependent manner and shows no additional lightening properties during the depigmentation phase, suggesting it has an antipigmentary but not depigmenting effect (R. de Dormael et al., 2019).
Vitamin C supports the epithelial barrier function against pathogens, enhances the skin’s oxidant quenching activity, thereby potentially contributing to protection against environmentally induced oxidative stress. A deficiency in Vitamin C leads to impaired immunity and increased susceptibility to infections (A. Carr & S. Maggini, 2017).

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid as a rejuvenating biomolecule: This substance shows remarkable anti-aging properties, including wrinkle reduction, skin firming, and improved skin hydration. Its use in cosmetic and nutricosmetic products is supported due to its ability to rejuvenate the skin (Bukhari et al., 2018).
Rejuvenation effects of hyaluronic acid fillers: Direct intradermal injections of stabilized hyaluronic acid led to significant improvements in skin texture, elasticity, and moisture, as well as a reduction in fine wrinkles (Lee et al., 2015).
Clinical investigations on hyaluronic acid: Hyaluronic acid fillers show promising results in improving skin quality through hydration, collagen, and elastin stimulation. The procedure is considered minimally invasive, safe, and effective (Belmontesi et al., 2018).
Effectiveness of hyaluronic acid in anti-wrinkle treatment: Topical application of hyaluronic acid of different molecular weights showed significant improvements in skin moisture and elasticity, as well as a reduction in wrinkle depth, especially in formulations with low molecular weight. (Pavicic et al., 2011).

Turmeric

Turmeric and its derivatives in skin diseases: Turmeric, known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, is used in the prevention and treatment of skin aging, psoriasis, acne, skin inflammation, and skin cancer. The challenge lies in maximizing the therapeutic potentials of turmeric by optimizing its bioavailability (Panahi et al., 2018).
Skin regenerative potentials of turmeric: Turmeric protects the skin by neutralizing free radicals and reducing inflammation through the inhibition of the nuclear factor-kappa B. It also influences other signaling pathways important for skin regeneration and wound healing. (Thangapazham et al., 2013)
Turmeric as an age-old anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic agent: Turmeric shows efficacy in treating chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel diseases, Alzheimer’s, and various types of cancer through its anti-inflammatory properties (Fadus et al., 2016).
Turmeric in inflammatory diseases: Turmeric has the ability to inhibit cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis through multiple molecular targets and mechanisms. It is safe, non-toxic, and mediates its anti-inflammatory effects by downregulating inflammatory transcription factors, cytokines, redox status, protein kinases, and enzymes that promote inflammation (Shehzad et al., 2013).
Turmeric as a wound healing agent: Turmeric accelerates wound healing through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It acts on various phases of the natural wound healing process to speed up healing. (Akbik et al., 2014).

Sea Buckthorn

Sea buckthorn oil in the diet for atopic dermatitis: A study found that daily intake of sea buckthorn oil slightly changed the composition of skin lipids in patients with atopic dermatitis, suggesting a supportive effect on skin conditions (Yang et al., 2000).
Sea buckthorn and cardiovascular health: Although this study focuses on cardiovascular diseases, it underscores the antioxidant properties of sea buckthorn that may also be relevant for skin health by protecting against environmental damage (Olas, 2016).
Regenerative properties of sea buckthorn oil on normal skin cells: This study shows that a fatty acid fraction isolated from sea buckthorn oil has regenerative properties on normal skin cells, confirming the support of skin health and structure by sea buckthorn oil (Dudau et al., 2021).
Sea buckthorn oil as a valuable source for cosmetics: This review discusses the unique composition of sea buckthorn oil and its benefits for dry, flaky, burnt, irritated, or rapidly aging skin, highlighted by its high content of fatty acids, carotenoids, and vitamins (Koskovac et al., 2017).

Rosehip Oil (Rosa canina L.)

This study explores the extraction methods and composition of rosehip oil, including essential fatty acids, tocopherols, sterols, and phenols. It highlights the anticarcinogenic effect of rosehip oil and its use in cosmetics due to its therapeutic effects on skin conditions (Kiralan & Yildirim, 2019).
Topical application of essential fatty acids (EFA) for the prevention of pressure ulcers shows that the topical application of EFAs improves hydration and elasticity of the skin and contributes to its protection. Although this study does not directly examine rosehip oil, it underscores the importance of EFAs, which are abundantly present in rosehip oil, for skin health (Declair, 1997).
The development of postoperative scars treated with pure rosehip seed oil shows that applying rosehip seed oil twice daily improves erythema, discoloration, and atrophy of postoperative skin scars, leading to a better overall evolution and appearance of scars (Valerón-Almazán et al., 2015).
Efficiency and safety of a rosehip seed oil extract in the prevention and treatment of skin lesions in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus through blood glucose measurements; a randomized, controlled clinical study found no significant improvement in skin lesions through the application of rosehip seed oil, although it was safe to use (Aguirre-Romero et al., 2020).

Fulvic Acid

Development of a nourishing cream with fulvic acid: Fulvic acid, known for its antioxidant properties, was successfully used in a functional cosmetic for the prevention of skin aging. Various tests, including skin cell safety and antioxidant effectiveness, showed outstanding performance of the developed cream (Jo et al., 2017).
Fulvic acid mediates tolerance to chromium (Cr) in wheat: Although this study focuses on plants, it highlights the ability of fulvic acid to reduce oxidative stress and could provide insights into similar protective mechanisms in human skin against environmental stressors (Ali et al., 2015).
Fulvic acid – A natural and versatile approach to treating inflammatory dermatoses: Fulvic acid showed efficacy and tolerance in clinical studies for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases such as eczema, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis through its anti-inflammatory, astringent, antioxidant, anti-allergic, and antimicrobial properties (Narayanan, 2019).

Anti-aging potential of extracts from the seeds of Washingtonia filifera: The seed extracts showed anti-elastase, anti-collagenase, and anti-tyrosinase activities, suggesting they could be effective in preventing signs of skin aging (Era et al., 2021).
Protective effect of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) seed extract: The extract showed an increase in collagen synthesis and a decrease in elastase activity and Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 (MMP) levels in skin cells, indicating antioxidant and skin-improving effects (Kim et al., 2023).
Protective role of pomegranate (Punica granatum) peel and seed oil extracts: This study shows that the extracts can reduce oxidative stress, suggesting they could contribute to the prevention of skin damage caused by environmental exposures (Shaban et al., 2013).

Flaxseed Extract

Supplementation with flaxseed oil reduces skin sensitivity and improves skin barrier function and condition: A study with healthy participants showed that daily supplementation with flaxseed oil led to significant decreases in skin sensitivity, transepidermal water loss, skin roughness, and scaling while increasing smoothness and hydration of the skin. This suggests that flaxseed oil can positively contribute to the improvement of skin texture and elasticity (Neukam et al., 2010).
Development of a phytocosmetic microemulgel with flaxseed extract and its in vitro and in vivo characterization: This study aimed to quantify the antioxidant potential of flaxseed extract and integrate it into a microemulgel for topical application. The developed microemulgel showed a 59.15% release in in vitro studies and produced statistically significant effects on skin redness, melanin, sebum, moisture, and elasticity in a non-invasive in vivo study on healthy female participants compared to a placebo. (Tasneem et al., 2022).
