Helianthus Annuus Extract
Hydrating
These ingredients help hydrate the skin by either drawing in moisture or preventing it from escaping. They’re often used to keep skin feeling soft, smooth, and well-balanced.
Explained
Helianthus Annuus Extract comes from the common sunflower.
Sunflowers are rich in vitamin E. Studies show sunflowers contain antimicrobial and antioxidant properties.
The fatty acids found in sunflowers include (from highest amount to least): linoleic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, oleic acid, and linolenic acid.
These fatty acids hydrate your skin. Emollients create a film on the skin to prevent moisture from escaping.
