Why We Love
Tomato Extract
| Tomatoes belong to the nightshade family and have been cultivated since the time of the Aztecs. Tomatoes were introduced to the rest of the world by Spanish explorers. Tomato extract contains lycopene, which counters free radicals to prevent sun damage for a youthful, glowing complexion. Maintaining your skin’s hydration levels, tomato extract can also have anti-inflammatory benefits (Naringenin chalcone from tomato skin has also been shown to produce anti-inflammatory effects in mice), making it especially effective in managing blemishes, removing blackheads and tightening pores. Aside from giving you smooth, soft skin, its high vitamin C content helps to even out and brighten skin tone. |
