Green Tea
Green tea is another antioxidant-rich ingredient that helps ward off free radicals. "In the skin, free radicals induced by UV rays cause damage to DNA and proteins and destabilize the membranes of keratinocytes leading to premature aging of the skin cells," explains dermatologist Dr. Luigi L. Polla. "In other words, oxidation equals aging. When exposed to UV rays, the skin undergoes changes resulting in inflammation, photoaging and various skin disorders."
Green tea contains four major antioxidant flavonoids that have the ability to neutralize a number of the most harmful free radicals.

AHAs and BHAs
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) work by exfoliating away dead skin cells to reveal a complexion that's brighter, smoother and more youthful. "This process also helps active ingredients to better penetrate the skin so you can benefit more from your products," explains board-certified dermatologist Dr. Dendy Engelman.
There are many types of AHAs, including glycolic acid, lactic acid and mandelic acid, and they help with issues like pigmentation and texture. There's one primary BHA in skin care, salicylic acid, and its primary function is to target blemishes and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
