Your Tote

Tomato

Tomato is a popular fruit that is often used in cooking, but it also has potential benefits for the skin when applied topically.

Tomatoes contain high amounts of vitamin C and lycopene, which are both powerful antioxidants. These antioxidants can help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals and UV rays, which can lead to premature aging and dark spots. They also have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to reduce redness, puffiness, and inflammation.

Tomatoes also contain high amounts of vitamin A, which is known to help improve the overall health of the skin. Vitamin A is essential for the production of collagen, a protein that is responsible for maintaining the skin's elasticity and firmness.

Tomatoes can be used in various forms for skincare, such as fresh tomato paste, tomato juice or tomato extract, depending on the desired outcome. They can be applied topically on the skin as a face mask, or added to the diet for internal benefits.

It is worth noting that, as with any natural ingredient, the effectiveness of tomatoes for the skin can vary depending on the quality, ripeness, and storage of the tomatoes. It's always good to do a patch test before using any new product, especially if you have sensitive skin.

Referral Studies

One study published in the Journal of Dermatology found that topical application of lycopene, an antioxidant found in tomatoes, significantly reduced UV-induced erythema (skin redness) in human subjects.

Another study published in the Journal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology found that oral consumption of tomato juice improved the overall appearance of the skin, including reducing the appearance of wrinkles and age spots.

A study published in the Journal of Medicinal Food found that topical application of a tomato-based gel improved the appearance of photoaged skin, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, evening out skin tone, and improving skin elasticity.

In addition to these studies, several in-vitro studies have been conducted to investigate the antioxidant properties of tomato extract, which has shown to have promising results. However, more clinical trials are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety.

It is worth noting that the studies were conducted with specific tomato-based formulations, and the results may not be the same when using other tomato products or formulations. Also, it's important to keep in mind that the effects of tomatoes on the skin may vary depending on the concentration of the extract used in the product.
