Spanish Moss May Inhibit Skin Functional Decline05
Sep 2004
Tokyo (JCNN) -
Japanese cosmetics manufacturer NOEVIR announced September 2
that it has discovered an anti-aging property of Spanish moss
(Tillandosia useneoides), a kind of air plants found in
Florida.
The company's recent research has revealed
that Spanish moss-derived extract can strengthen and protect
skin capillaries. In addition, it helps inhibit the functional
decline of skin cells.
NOEVIR has already patented the
findings through the discovery. Detailed research results will
be presented at the 51st Annual Meeting of the Japanese
Society of Pharmacognosy to be held in Kobe from September 9
to 10.
Based on the discovery, the company plans to
develop a new skin care product series by early 2005.
