BEARBERRY
Bearberry extract is
made from the leaves of the bearberry plant. It is commonly used as an
astringent in cosmetic preparations and skin care products. Astringents are
cleansers that remove dirt and oil from the skin's pores. It is also used as a
lightening agent to fade freckles or skin discoloration which may be caused by
sun damage or hormonal conditions. Bearberry extract is reputed to have
antibacterial and antioxidant properties that may be beneficial for cleansing
the skin and improving its appearance. It is thought by some to increase cell
turnover rate, thus shedding old skin cells which do not reflect light as
smoothly and make the skin look dull.
