Ferulic Acid Powder  is a phytochemical constituent from the polyphenols group commonly found in whole grains, spinach, parsley, grapes, and rhubarb. It has been widely applied in skin care formulations as a photoprotective agent and delayer of cutaneous photoaging processes. Ferulic acid is a plant compound with numerous known health benefits. It is absorbed efficiently through the skin, where it is effective as a strong antioxidant.

Most often it is used in combination with vitamins C and E – this way, the individual benefits of each ingredient are strengthened, resulting in very effective UV protection. This combination even prevents DNA damage and cancer formation. The antioxidant protection is stable, remains safe from rubbing and sweating, and is even resistant to natural chemical degradation, giving the product a long shelf-life. Ferulic acid alone is also beneficial, as it can restore collagen synthesis after UV exposure and thus reduce the symptoms of skin aging. These properties make it a desirable component in sunscreens and antioxidant formulations.
