Silymarin
Cosmate®SM, Silymarin refers to a group of flavonoid antioxidants that naturally occur in milk thistle seeds (used historically as an antidote for mushroom poisoning). The components of Silymarin are Silybin, Silibinin, Silydianin, and Silychristin. These compounds protect and treat the skin from oxidative stress caused by ultraviolet radiation. Cosmate®SM, Silymarin also has powerful antioxidant properties that prolong cell life. Cosmate®SM, Silymarin can prevents UVA and UVB exposure damage. It is also being studied for its ability to inhibit tyrosinase (a critical enzyme for melanin synthesis) and hyperpigmentation. In wound healing and anti-aging, Cosmate®SM,Silymarin can inhibit the production of inflammation-driving cytokines and oxidative enzymes. It can also increase collagen and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) production, promoting a broad spectrum of cosmetic benefits. This makes the compound great in antioxidant serums or as a valuable ingredient in sunscreens.
