About
An antioxidant active used to help protect skin or formulas from oxidative stress, though sensitive skin can still react.
Artepillin C is the organic compound that conforms to the formula. This is a defined small-molecule antioxidant-type active used for hydration support and skin-conditioning support. That chemistry is usually compatible with topical use, but phenolic or strongly bioactive compounds can still bother very sensitive skin, so the score stays good rather than perfect.
