How it works: Silymarin is an extract from the milk thistle plant. Silymarin works as a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect the skin from ultraviolet damage and immunosuppression than can in turn lead to skin cancer.

Effectiveness: Silymarin has been used for many years and is currently used by mouth to help with liver disorders. Recent research shows that topical use of silymarin significantly reduces the damage caused by the sun's ultraviolet radiation by decreasing oxidative stress and suppression of the skin's immune system. This provides powerful protection from sun damage.

Where to find it: Silymarin is only currently available in a few products including Revision Clarity
