Pleiotropic effects of a <i>Camellia sinensis</i> leaf extract on in vitro and in vivo skin health characteristics
Collectively, CSLE retains detoxification, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties while improving mood states, skin hydration, skin barrier function, skin rejuvenation and facial skin health. Notably, we provide the first evidence of CSLE's immunomodulatory properties on skin microorganisms via dendritic cell signalling molecules, in addition to enhancing relaxation through alpha brainwave activity with topical CSLE application. Overall, the present investigation demonstrates CSLE elicits a diverse and comprehensive efficacy portfolio for utilization in skincare products.
