Performance & Formulation Insights for AccessCARE Hairy-style Eleuthero Extract
How Hairy-style Eleuthero Extract Works
AccessCARE Hairy-style Eleuthero Extract functions as a powerful adaptogenic active for the skin. Rich in flavonoids and triterpenoid saponins, it delivers synergistic antioxidant and soothing benefits. The flavonoids neutralize free radicals generated by UV exposure and pollution, helping protect cellular components from oxidative stress. The saponins help down-regulate the skin’s inflammatory response to visibly reduce redness and discomfort. Additionally, research on Acanthopanax Koreanum suggests it can help inhibit collagen-degrading enzymes (MMP‑1 and MMP‑3), supporting the skin’s structural integrity and helping defend against photoaging.
Formulation Guidelines
This extract is a water-soluble liquid suitable for the aqueous phase of emulsions, gels, toners, and serums. For best results, add during the cool-down phase below 40°C (104°F) to preserve bioactive integrity. It is stable in formulations within pH 4.0–7.0 and is compatible with common cosmetic actives, including Vitamin C derivatives, Niacinamide, and Panthenol, enabling synergistic soothing and barrier-support benefits.
