By improving cell respiration, Meadowsweet (Spiraea Ulmaria) natural plant extract enhances the skin's cell renewing and cell proliferating activities. It also provides a level of environmental protection.
Rich in tannins, Spiraea Ulmaria extract has an astringent action. Besides tannins, this plant is high in salicylates and salicylic acid (BHA) that gently exfoliates the skin, eliminating dead and dull cells from the surface.
Meadowsweet extract is also a potent antioxidant protecting skin from UV-induced damage and scavenging free radicals.
