1.Antioxidant Capacity of Rhodiola Extract
Free radicals mainly attack the collagen in our skin. Excessive free radicals will cause the skin to become slack, wrinkled and aged. In the process of the human body's contact with the outside world, various factors such as ultraviolet radiation and environmental pollution can lead to the generation of free radicals. What we usually refer to as "antioxidation" actually means combating free radicals. Therefore, the ability to scavenge free radicals can be used as one of the criteria for evaluating a certain ingredient or product.
2.Firming and Anti-wrinkle Efficacy of Rhodiola Extract
Fibroblasts, as the main cell type in the dermal tissue, are responsible for secreting collagen and elastin and are like the perpetual motion machines for keeping our skin in a youthful state. Rhodiola extract can help the skin achieve the effect of firming and anti-wrinkle by promoting the proliferation of fibroblasts and enhancing the regenerative ability of cells.
3.Whitening Efficacy of Rhodiola Extract
The production and deposition of melanin are the main factors leading to skin darkening. In the process of developing and screening active ingredients for skin care products, skin darkening can be prevented by inhibiting the activity of enzymes required in the melanin production pathway, reducing the synthesized melanin, inhibiting the auto-oxidation of dopa, inhibiting the transport of melanin, regulating signal transduction of whitening active substances, accelerating skin metabolism and the shedding of the stratum corneum.
4.Anti-inflammatory Efficacy of Rhodiola Extract
The anti-inflammatory effect is also a highlight of Rhodiola. Rhodiola element in Rhodiola can inhibit a variety of inflammatory reactions. By inhibiting the production of inflammatory factors and weakening the damage of inflammatory reactions to the body, it plays an important role in the treatment of inflammation-related diseases. For example, Rhodiola element can relieve the symptoms of chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and improve the treatment effect.
