2. Active Ingredients

Photinia Flavonoids and Anthocyanins

The main active ingredients of heather flower extract are natural heather flavonoids and anthocyanin compounds. These active substances are renowned for powerful antioxidant, brightening repair, anti-redness and skin-purifying soothing properties, serving as the core functional components of heather flowers.

Photinia flavonoids and anthocyanins are key natural active ingredients intensively studied in the industry. Studies have shown that these components can effectively neutralize free radicals in the human body and on the skin surface. Free radicals are the primary cause of skin oxidative dullness, fine lines, rough texture, body aging and sub-health conditions, which can effectively improve various oxidative skin damages.

Natural Polyphenols, Arbutin and Organic Acids

Photinia flower extract also contains abundant natural polyphenols, arbutin and organic acids, featuring a mild and fresh natural plant fragrance. These ingredients not only endow the product with a refreshing and pure plant texture, but also offer excellent effects on metabolic regulation, mild bacteriostasis, brightening renewal and soothing conditioning. They gently nourish the skin and physical condition, bringing multiple skin and body maintenance benefits.
