Ferulic Acid

Ferulic acid is an organic compound that is an amber coloured solid. It is a natural antioxidant derived from the cell walls of plants such as rice, oats and wheat. It is an antioxidant that boosts the effectiveness of other antioxidants and protects the skin from environmental damage. It is also effective at reducing wrinkles and age spots, by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment that gives the skin its colour. It is commonly combined with Vitamin C and E which enhances their effects. Ferulic acid can be found in many serums and can be used morning and night.
