What Is It?

Guarana seed extract is a natural ingredient derived from the seeds of the guarana plant, Paullinia cupana, which is native to the Amazon. This particular extract is standardized to contain 22% caffeine, meaning that a significant portion of its composition is naturally occurring caffeine.

What are the benefits?

Products containing guarana seed extract with its caffeine content can offer several potential benefits. When applied topically, the caffeine within the extract is believed to help stimulate microcirculation, which is the tiny blood flow just beneath the skin's surface. This increased circulation can contribute to a more revitalized appearance, potentially helping skin look less tired or dull. Think of it like a gentle wake-up call for your skin.
​Guarana Seed Extract also has antioxidants which help shield your skin from environmental aggressors like pollution, which can contribute to signs of aging. So, while not a "magic eraser," it can support your skin's vitality, helping it appear more invigorated and toned.
