Strawberry Seed Extract

Strawberry Extract is an all-time popular extract. If you have ever taken dietary supplements with skin-nourishing benefits, try checking the back of the box for the key ingredients. You will almost certainly find strawberry extract. Typically, the extract is derived from the fruit of the strawberry, but this extract is derived from strawberry seeds, which are rich in active compounds such as tiliroside and kaempferol-3-O-glucoside. These compounds belong to the bioflavonoid group and have antioxidant properties, inhibit elastase and collagenase enzymes, and have anti-inflammatory effects. Tiliroside can inhibit CAMP Phosphodiesterase and Histamine, enzymes that signal inflammation, making it particularly suitable for very sensitive skin.

A dermatological test was conducted by inducing UV radiation-induced skin inflammation (erythema). A total of 20 subjects received UV radiation from the elbow to the wrist at an intensity of 2 MED and were treated with the test formula for 6 hours. The development of erythema was monitored for 48 hours. The results showed that Tiliroside could help relieve skin redness and swelling compared with a 1% Hydrocortisone solution (a substance used to treat inflammation but which may have side effects on hormonal balance in the body).
