The active is a purified extract of organic sunflower shoots, which are said to contain higher levels of nutrients than mature plants.
Mibelle has conducted gene array analysis as well as in vitro studies on fibroblasts and reconstructed epidermis to show that the active can stimulate the cellular production of energy and antioxidants, reinforce the skin barrier and stimulate the build-up of ECM proteins by inhibiting their degradation by MMP.
