Understanding the process
Story alert! We love creating scenarios to help you understand stuff without scaring or boring you with overloaded facts. So, here's one. Imagine your skin to be a perfect garden adorned with beauty, charm, and liveliness. Everything's well until something unusual happens. A squad of free radicals (that are born from sunlight and pollution) enters this garden (your skin) and tries to damage it. These tiny invaders roam freely around your skin, destroying your unarmed, delicate skin cells- causing wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging.
Now, Ferulic Acid comes up as the ultimate gardener that promises to save this garden's aura. It protects your skin by identifying and neutralising these free radicals much before they can harm you. And, that's how Ferulic Acid got its title- 'Free Radical Scavenger'. It doesn't stop here, further, it makes your skin garden even stronger by telling your skin cells to make more collagen, giving you firm and youthful-looking skin. Now that's a super-happy ending for your skin!
