Acchieve healthy-looking skin by supplementing with antioxidants–they neutralize free radicals, promote cellular repair and mitigate damage. While eating vitamin C-rich foods or drinking green tea is one way of receiving these essential vitamins, serums offer more potency.
Formulas typically include an assortment of antioxidant nutrients such as vitamin C, resveratrol, ferulic acid and silymarin. The most effective can also help slow signs of aging, reverse sun damage and stimulate collagen production.
1. Fights Free Radicals
Antioxidants are some of the most widely-used ingredients in skin care, particularly facial serum, yet few people understand their actual purpose and benefits to skin health. Here’s an introduction to how antioxidants work for our bodies:
Free radicals, or unstable molecules lacking electrons, are constantly looking for healthy cells to steal electrons from. This process, known as oxidative stress, is known for leading to fine lines and wrinkles as well as hyperpigmentation among other issues. Antioxidants act like “skin superheroes,” by binding with and giving their electrons away to free radicals so they no longer take from our own healthy cells and cause damage.
Antioxidants can be obtained in several ways, from eating fruits and vegetables, whole grains and face serums, as well as through topical products like face serums. Specific ingredients that stand out for this task include vitamin C, resveratrol, niacinamide green tea extract turmeric; these powerful antioxidants effectively combat free radicals while combatting signs of aging to leave skin smoother and brighter than before.
2. Hydrates
Antioxidants play an integral part in maintaining the health of skin cells and other body tissues, acting as natural ways to nourish them topically in serum form.
Harmful external factors and stress can wreak havoc on your antioxidant balance, leaving skin dry, irritation-prone and dehydrated. With this intelligent serum in its arsenal, restore it and soothe any irritation or dehydration for healthier, vibrant and smoother looking results.

3. Reduces the Appearance of Wrinkles
Antioxidants are your skin’s go-to defense against aging. They fight free radicals–unstable molecules lacking an electron that steal them away from healthy cells, leading to wrinkles, dark spots, and other signs of oxidative stress that contribute to premature signs of aging such as wrinkles or dark spots.
Antioxidants also work to shield your complexion from environmental aggressors like UV radiation, air pollution and cigarette smoke. “Antioxidants act like sponges that soak up these molecules,” according to Dr. Sandy Skotnicki of University of Toronto Department of Medicine’s department of medicine assistant professorship Dr. Sandy Skotnicki told SELF. This helps minimize DNA oxidative damage of skin cells as well as protect collagen and elastin while diminishing wrinkles over time.

4. Rejuvenates
antioxidant serums can provide an effective solution for uneven skin tone, pigmentation issues, wrinkles or acne scars. By fighting free radicals which cause premature aging and dullness on your complexion, antioxidant serums regulate melanin production which determines skin coloration.
