What Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) does for skin

Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is a powerful enzymatic antioxidant that protects, repairs, and rejuvenates the skin. Known for its ability to neutralise free radicals and combat oxidative stress, SOD helps maintain healthy, resilient, and youthful-looking skin.
Key Skincare Benefits of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD)
Potent Antioxidant Protection
SOD shields the skin from free radical damage, helping prevent premature aging and maintaining overall skin health.
UV Radiation Defense
By neutralising free radicals generated by sun exposure, SOD reduces the risk of sunburn, photo-aging, and UV-induced damage.
Anti-Inflammatory & Soothing
Its natural anti-inflammatory properties calm redness, irritation, and sensitivity, supporting a balanced, comfortable complexion.
Supports Wound Healing
SOD aids the skin’s natural repair processes, reducing oxidative stress and promoting faster recovery from minor wounds and injuries.
Preserves Collagen & Elasticity
By protecting collagen fibers from oxidative damage, SOD helps maintain firm, elastic skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and sagging.
Brightens Complexion
Regular use contributes to a more radiant, luminous complexion with improved texture and tone.
Enhances Skin Barrier Function
SOD strengthens the skin’s natural barrier, helping to retain moisture and defend against environmental aggressors.
Reduces Hyperpigmentation
It can help fade dark spots and even out skin tone, supporting a clearer, more uniform complexion.
Hydration & Moisture Retention
With natural humectant properties, SOD improves skin hydration, preventing dryness and supporting supple, smooth skin.
Gentle & Suitable for All Skin Types
SOD is generally well-tolerated, making it ideal for sensitive, reactive, or combination skin.
