Chrysin
Derived from passionflower, chrysin helps protect skin cells from ultraviolet stress by reducing visible redness, moisture loss, and everyday oxidative wear without causing irritation. It suits most skin types well and is most commonly found in concentrated serums designed for daily application. Because it pairs harmoniously with vitamin C, it integrates easily into existing morning routines.
