Natural-based antioxidants in cosmeceuticals: Extraction, bioavailability and skin ageing applications.
Review in International journal of cosmetic science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This review offers an in-depth exploration of the bioactivities, extraction techniques, formulation approaches and practical uses of naturally derived antioxidants in anti-ageing skincare. A critical analysis of the literature was performed. Extracts from leaves, aerial parts, seeds, peels, fruits and barks exhibit potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, photoprotective and anti-tyrosinase activities. Natural-based antioxidants exhibit a wide range of bioactivities as neutralizing free radicals through mechanisms such as metal chelation and activation of cellular antioxidant pathways (e.g. Nrf2/ARE) and anti-inflammatory effects by modulating cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6 and promoting wound healing by stimulating collagen synthesis and bioactive compound production. Extracts from Mucuna species, Magnolia officinalis and Arbutus unedo, for instance, demonstrate anti-ageing efficacy by inhibiting enzymes such as collagenase, elastase and MMPs. Certain fruit and seed extracts provide photoprotection with high SPF values, while others-such as mushroom extracts and essential oils-display potent antimicrobial activity. Their bioactivity is often enhanced through fermentation processes, innovative delivery systems like liposomes, niosomes and polymeric micelles, which improve stability, bioavailability and topical effectiveness. Extraction methods for natural antioxidants-including aqueous, hydroalcoholic, ultrasound-assisted (UAE), fermentation-assisted and alternative solvent (NaDES) techniques-are crucial for recovering and stabilizing bioactive compounds.
