Handpicked from the Swiss Alps, Alpine roses grow at high altitudes, where they have evolved to protect themselves from dehydration, free radical damage, and pathogens of their unique environment. Alpine rose extract offers these same protective benefits and has been shown to increase the vitality and integrity of epidermal cells to optimize skin cell function.

ALPINE ROSE EXTRACT IN SKINCARE

When applied topically, it increases the skin’s own cell vitality, boosts epidermal regeneration for a healthier skin barrier, and reduces signs of aging by promoting a more vital, youthful-looking appearance. It has also been shown to be effective at smoothing out crow’s feet and other common signs of aging around the delicate eye area.

In addition to boosting cell activity and nourishing the skin’s natural protective barrier, Alpine rose extract is a powerful antioxidant that protects against oxidative stress brought on by climate changes and other environmental stressors. It soothes inflammation and irritation to help repair the skin’s natural protective barrier while fighting free radical damage at the cellular level, making it an ideal ingredient for all skin types.

Harvested from the leaves, seeds, and berries of the raspberry plant, the raspberry extract is rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, including vitamin C, beta-carotene, glutathione, quercetin, resveratrol, ferulic acid, and vitamin E. It offers powerful regenerative benefits and boosts skin cell renewal to help reverse signs of aging and protect against future skin damage, especially photodamage from sun exposure. Raspberry extract is also rich in antioxidants and can suppress the enzymes responsible for excess melanin production that contributes to uneven skin tone.

RASPBERRY EXTRACT IN SKINCARE

Raspberry extract is especially beneficial thanks to its ability to reduce inflammation and redness resulting from UV exposure to provide a soothing effect to the skin. In-vitro studies show that raspberry extract immediately decrease redness by reducing existing erythema (skin redness) from UV exposure and protect against long-term damage by preventing its formation when regularly applied topically.
