back to ingredient overview

More than 20 published studies demonstrate the effectiveness of this unique antioxidant for both topical and oral applications. Pycnogenol® assists in giving skin a healthier, vibrant glow by binding to skin proteins collagen and elastin, aiding in wrinkle reduction, sun care and hyper pigmentation.

  • Pycnogenol selectively binds to collagen and elastin and protects these proteins from degradation
  • Pycnogenol enhances blood micro-circulation to the skin, warranting better supply with oxygen and nutrients, with better hydration and waste removal.
  • Pycnogenol inhibits melanogenesis and lowers skin pigmentation intensity
  • Pycnogenol is anti-inflammatory.
