Tomato

Tomatoes are in season for too short a period, but we are fortunate to capture their benefits year-round!

Tomato skin extract enriches our RENEW serum with the potent antioxidant lycopene, a carotenoid renowned for its exceptional anti-aging benefits. These fat-soluble compounds not only enhance skin hydration and reduce the appearance of wrinkles but also shield against UV damage and environmental pollutants, promoting skin regeneration for a more youthful complexion.

Extensive research on the topical application of lycopene reveals its ability to combat age-related free radicals while accelerating the skin's metabolic and cellular functions essential for growth and repair. Lycopene also inhibits enzymes that break down collagen, safeguarding the skin’s health and texture.

Beyond topical applications lycopene is known to improve heart health and lower the risk of certain types of cancer. If you aren’t a tomato lover you can also find lycopene in red and pink foods like peppers, watermelon, cherries, cabbage, guava and grapefruit. Just as a colorful plate is the key to good health, a naturally colorful skincare routine can bring your body abundant benefits.
