Sambucus Nigra Flower Extract

Explained

Sambucus Nigra Flower Extract comes from the European Elder Tree. It's a polyphenol-rich extract that give it antioxidant, skin soothing, and tonic properties.

In-vitro studies show elder extracts can inhibit collagenase (or the enzyme that degrades collagen), including the ones triggered by UV damage from the sun.

This ingredient is generally well-tolerated unless you have a known elder or Adoxaceae allergy.
