Functions
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Astringent
Tightens and contracts skin tissue, temporarily shrinking pores and reducing oiliness. That "clean, tight" feeling after toner.

Traditional Use
Grape leaves have been used in traditional Mediterranean and Middle Eastern medicine for circulation and skin health. The extract is a modern cosmetic application of these historical uses, valued for its proanthocyanidin and polyphenol content.
