Pterostilbene: A Rising Star in Anti-Aging Skincare

1. Market Background & Component Overview

• Superior stability

• Higher bioavailability

• Multifunctional skin benefits

2. Key Skincare Benefits of Pterostilbene

2.1 Powerful Antioxidant Protection

• Outperforms resveratrol in free radical scavenging (McCormack & McFadden, Oxid Med Cell Longev, 2013).

• Shields skin from oxidative stress caused by UV radiation, pollution, and blue light, delaying premature aging.

  
  

2.2 Anti-Inflammatory & Skin Barrier Support

• Modulates the NF-κB pathway to reduce inflammatory cytokines (Chang et al., J Agric Food Chem, 2012).

• Benefits sensitive skin, reduces redness and post-inflammatory irritation, and supports skin barrier repair.

  
  

2.3 Anti-Aging & Collagen Boosting

• Activates SIRT1 signaling to promote cellular repair and collagen synthesis (McCormack et al., 2012).

• Visibly improves skin firmness, elasticity, and reduces wrinkles.

  
  

2.4 Healthy Glow & Even Complexion

• Unlike "whitening" ingredients, its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects create a radiant, balanced complexion — aligning with Western consumers’ demand for a natural, healthy glow.
