FSS Eyebright Extract SNO

Euphrasia officinalis, or eyebright, is a skincare superstar known for its impressive benefits, drawing from a rich tradition in herbal medicine. FSS Eyebright Extract SNO amplifies the bioactive compounds that can be found in eyebright to promote healthy, radiant skin. Eyebright has been found to contain high phenolic content, which can protect human dermal fibroblasts from UVB damage. Severe and chronic UVB irradiation can cause photoaging by the production of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS).1 Although the skin manages ROS with its own self-defense system, excessive and chronic exposure to UVB can break down that system, leading to oxidative damage. 2 It can be used in eye care lotions and as well as in serums, cleansers, toners, moisturizers, eye shadows & products formulated for sensitive skin.

Benefits:

• Astringent
• Soothing
• Toning
