Wine Phytoalexin Skincare | The Benefits of Phytoalexins for Your Skin

What is a phytoalexin and how can phytoalexins benefit your skin? Like many (including myself before bringing this product into our store), you may have no idea what this is or why you would want to use it. Here's the answer:

What It Is

When certain plants are attacked by disease-causing agents such as bacteria and fungi, they respond by producing a natural "antibiotic": phytoalexins. Therefore, it is a natural substance that is toxic to fungi and bacteria.

Resveratrol, a potent phytoalexin, was originally identified in 1940 from the white hellebore lily. The most concentrated known natural source is red wine and the Asian medicinal plant polygonum cuspidatum (Giant Knotweed). It has been used as a botanical dietary supplement in herbal formulations for thousands of years in traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Indian medicine.

The Benefits for Skin are Numerous

Therefore, according to the makers of D'vine Skincare, this substance has numerous properties that make it ideal for anti aging skincare, acne-prone skin, stressed skin and to increase overall skin health:
* Stimulates collagen synthesis

* Anti-inflammatory, skin-calming

* It supports the capillaries and health of the skin from free radical damage

* Acts as a free radical scavenger

* Blocks harmful effects of UV-B radiation
