Decades of research demonstrate the powerful, restorative effects of antioxidants. From foods eaten orally to topical products like serums and treatments applied topically on skin care, antioxidants combat damage caused by free radicals which cause hyperpigmentation, lines and wrinkles, dullness and dryness.
Opt for multi-faceted formulas, such as stabilized vitamin C serums and concentrated niacinamide treatments. Plus, always wear broad spectrum sunscreen on your face to provide sun protection.
Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
As an effective antioxidant, vitamin E is known to help fade dark spots, smooth wrinkles and maximize the benefits of other hardworking ingredients. Plus, its hydrating qualities help prevent moisture loss – so much so that it’s often combined with other powerhouse antioxidants like vitamin C, resveratrol or copper peptides as a booster ingredient!
Antioxidants act like super heroes for skin; binding to free radicals and offering their electrons to neutralize them, helping prevent damage-causing unstable molecules from damaging cells and tissues, thus decreasing oxidative stress which leads to hyperpigmentation, fine lines/wrinkles/inflammation/dullness and dullness.

Brightens skin tone
Enhancing your skincare regimen with an antioxidant serum provides long-term, visible improvements for the skin.

Neutralizing free radicals generated from UV rays, environmental pollutants and stress is necessary for maintaining youthful complexions. If left uncontrolled, these unstable molecules cause oxidative stress that leads to dullness and loss of radiance in skin cells.
Antioxidant serums help counter oxidative damage by providing essential vitamins and nutrients directly to the skin, restoring its natural balance. Furthermore, this serum also includes hydrating ingredients to replenish moisture loss as well as soothe and protect. To get the most from your antioxidant serum application routinely morning and night after toning and before moisturizing; repeat this routine each time until glowing, healthier-looking skin emerges over time! The more consistent you are with this regimen the greater its results will become over time.
Hydrates skin
Long-term exposure to UV rays damages skin elastin, the stretchy tissue responsible for its stretchiness. Antioxidant serums contain ingredients that stimulate natural production of elastin for healthy, plump skin; look for products containing vitamin C, retinol, resveratrol or niacinamide to achieve this result.
Free radicals wreak havoc on skin’s cells, leading to uneven tone, blemishes and early wrinkle formation. By offering up electrons as anti-free radical defense mechanisms, antioxidants help neutralize these harmful free radicals before they attack healthy skin cells. When searching for an antioxidant serum to keep skin soft, smooth and radiant. Look for one containing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, algae extracts, Vitamin C or peptides to ensure maximum benefits are provided to keep you looking hydrated!
An antioxidant serum should be applied every morning after cleansing and before moisturizing to provide continuous protection from environmental stresses and pollutants throughout the day. A good antioxidant serum also pairs well with sunscreen to double up on protection from sun damage and premature aging.
Reduces inflammation
Vitamin C is widely recognized for brightening dull skin, as well as evenening skin tone and diminishing dark spots. GH Seal star No7 combines this anti-ageing ingredient with squalane, calendula and licorice root to create an anti-tiredness formula with rich texture which visibly decreases fine lines and wrinkles.
Antioxidants are an indispensable group of ingredients, working in concert to combat free radical damage caused by UV radiation from the sun’s UV rays and lead to hyperpigmentation and wrinkle formation. You can take antioxidant supplements in supplement form or add topical skincare solutions like face serums to your routine for maximum protection from free radical damage.
An antioxidant serum should be part of your daily skin-care routine, first thing in the morning or evening after cleansing and toning, but prior to applying broad-spectrum sunscreen. When selecting products with exfoliants such as hypochlorous acid (commonly found in chlorine-based household cleaners) be mindful that they could counteract antioxidant effects and cause irritation instead.
