With so many products out on the market today, you might not know EXACTLY how each and every anti-aging, brightening, hydrating, powerhouse blend of ingredients work.

Never fear! BeautyStat is here to help you better understand some of the most important and good-for-your-skin ingredients out today. But right now, we’re talking about Resveratrol.

What Is It?

A natural antioxidant, Resveratrol is found in grape skins, red wine, blueberries, pomegranates, blackberries and raspberries. It is added to moisturizers, eye creams and other anti-aging products to protect skin cells from free radical damage by neutralizing its effects.

Resveratrol promotes firmness and minimizes photo-damage to mature skin. You can find it in Replenix Power of Three Cream or in Caudalie‘s Vinexpert Resveratrol lift and firm collection.

Cosmetic Chemist Assessment:

Resveratrol has been shown to activate sirtuin (an enzyme in the body with roles in many biological processes). This activation of sirtuin may lead to skin cell repair and protection, which helps in providing anti-aging benefits.
