EPIGALLOCATECHIN GALLATE

INCI
Epigallocatechin Gallate

Sourcing: Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is a natural polyphenol extracted from the leaves of green tea (Camellia sinensis), where it is the most abundant and active catechin.


Benefits: EGCG stands out for its powerful antioxidant capacity: it neutralises free radicals (ROS) and limits lipid peroxidation, helping to protect the skin against oxidative stress and the damage associated with premature ageing. It also helps to attenuate pro-inflammatory mediators, supporting calmer, more balanced skin, and provides protection against environmental stressors.
