What Is Fagus Sylvatica Bud Extract?
The page for Fagus Sylvatica Bud Extract currently states that the ingredient is a Tonic but is not yet rated, with the full description being a placeholder. However, external research indicates that Fagus Sylvatica Bud Extract, also known as Beech Bud Extract, is rich in rejuvenating compounds and contains hydroxyproline, an amino acid crucial for the synthesis of collagen and elastin. This makes it a popular ingredient in anti-ageing treatments, where it is used to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and improve skin elasticity. Furthermore, studies suggest it helps to boost skin hydration by retaining moisture and offers enzymatic benefits that promote healthy skin cell turnover, leading to a smoothing and restructuring effect on the skin.
