Watermelon
is the newest skin care superfood your face is craving. This juicy super fruit
is rich in potassium, Vitamins A, C, and B, amino acids, and lycopene, a
powerful antioxidant that helps minimize the appearance of wrinkles, fine
lines, and age spots.
Healthy skin
is hydrated skin. When our skin becomes dry, it often becomes flaky. Fine lines
are typically more apparent and our skin is more susceptible to irritation and
inflammation. Amino acids are often used in a variety of cosmetic applications
not only for their conditioning benefits, but also to keep our skin and hair
hydrated. In addition to being the fundamental building blocks of all proteins,
amino acids also contribute to our body’s Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) to
maintain proper hydration levels. The amino acids in watermelon can help to
promote healthy, hydrated skin.
What makes
watermelon a must-have is its lycopene. Lycopene is responsible for the deep
red color of the watermelon fruit, and it is one of the most potent
antioxidants in skin care. Antioxidants are substances that neutralize the free
radicals that are found in the environment. According to the latest anti-aging
research, free radicals are a primary factor that causes the degradation of
structural proteins. These proteins are the building blocks that are
responsible for providing the skin's support and elasticity. As the
concentration of these structural proteins decreases, the skin’s overall
appearance also degrades appearing aged, dull and wrinkled. Nevertheless, the
damage that is caused by free radicals has also been shown to slow down
cellular metabolism while simultaneously damaging the cell’s DNA and membranes.
This damage can further accelerate the aging process, which unfortunately
reduces the possibility of achieving a flawless complexion. In addition to
lycopene, watermelon contains antioxidants Vitamin A and Vitamin C, which can
help reduce skin inflammation, improve skin pigmentation, and promote healthy
collagen production.
FSS Watermelon Extract G can be used to capitalize on the
benefits associated with watermelon in a variety of hair and skin care
products.
