Acanthopanax Senticosus Root Extract raw material derived from the root of Siberian Ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus), to meet the aging challenge. Siberian Ginseng is not a "true" ginseng as it is only remotely related to the ginsengs (such as the well-known Panax ginseng).

Thanks to its adaptogenic properties, Acanthopanax senticosus root extract exhibits similar action to preparations containing Panax ginseng root extract, allowing the skin to adapt to stress induced by environmental or internal factors. It functions to raise resistance to physical, chemical, or biological stresses and boost cell recovery, thereby normalizing the skin’s physiological state.

Rich in complex polysaccharides, Acanthopanax Senticosus Root Extract acts as an immune stimulator used to fight infection of the skin and lungs and as a supplement to promote overall well-being. The plant itself is believed to have been used in Chinese and Russian medicine for over 4,000 years, but it was the mid-twentieth century before Siberian Ginseng was evaluated by Russian Scientists, where it was found to enhance physical and mental performance.

Acanthopanax Senticosus Root Extract aqueous ingredient consisting primarily of the complex polysaccharides and associated glycoproteins from the root of Eleutherococcus senticosus. When applied to the skin in a cosmetic vehicle, these compounds will form an elegant film on the skin that will tighten and smooth the treated skin immediately. This perceivable phenomenon is due to physical changes in the polymer structure of the polysaccharides as they dry on the skin. This gentle sensation of smooth skin will last for hours without flaking or leaving the skin feeling overly tight. Best of all, the use of Acanthopanax Senticosus Root Extract is totally safe and noninvasive.

There is clearly no end in sight to our search for the fountain of youth. Some of us, in fact, will go to great lengths to conceal our aged appearance. However, nature has provided us with numerous ways to combat the signs of time. Acanthopanax Senticosus root extract is a naturally derived, skin-tightening ingredient that can help to physically "lift" sagging skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
