Regimen's Take

Isoflavone, isolated from soy, potent antioxidnant that reduces UVA and UVB-induced redness and inflammation. Studies have shown that is able to slow down photoaging both scavenging free radicals ("helping prevent protein/dna damage") and inhibits the activation in inflammation and redness, suppressing the amount of MMPs that can degrade collagen. We believe antioxidants should be part of a daily skincare routine, Genistein Most antioxidants work by scavenging free radicals or inhibiting processes caused by UVA/UVB damage, or direct UVA/UVB damage. tyrosine protein kinesis & necrosis factor KB.

TLDR

As with any antioxidant, no single antioxidant can tackle the whole UV damage/ inflammation / etc. process - so it's best to look for Genistein (like any antioxidant) in combination with others
