Name Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) Description Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble antioxidant naturally present in the cells of the human body. It plays a vital role in the production of energy in the form of ATP and is especially abundant in organs with high energy requirements, such as the heart, liver, and kidneys. Benefits CoQ10 helps protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by free radicals, reducing signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. It supports cellular energy production, improving skin repair and regeneration. Enhances firmness and elasticity of the skin by boosting collagen production. Helps neutralize damage caused by UV radiation, offering a protective barrier against photoaging. Considerations • Irritation/Allergy
