Active ingredient
Acmella Oleracea Extract
Extract from Acmella oleracea (electric daisy / paracress), a flowering plant native to Brazil and widely used in traditional medicine for its anesthetic properties. Contains spilanthol and related isobutylamide alkaloids that create a tingling sensation and temporarily block sodium channels in sensory nerves and muscle cells. Used in anti-aging serums as a plant-derived peptide alternative for reducing the appearance of expression lines.
