Abstract

Resveratrol is an antioxidant found in some plants and is mainly found in the skin and seeds of red and black grapes, which may have benefits for skin health. Studies suggest that resveratrol can help protect the skin against damage caused by ultravioleta (UV) rays and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that fight free radicals. The skin is a complex organ with numerous functions, the main one being to defend the body from environmental aggressions, yet it is an organ that goes through the aging process. Numerous active ingredients are used to assist in facial rejuvenation in order to return essential nutrients to the skin and repair damage.
