How Does Idebenone Benefit the Skin?

Anti-aging
Idebenone is mainly used for the potential anti-aging benefits to the skin. As an analog to the antioxidant Coenzyme Q10, it is believed to help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Idebenone is designed to reduce the effects of free radicals on the skin.

Irritation
Idebenone, through its antioxidant action, is likely to help reduce irritation and soothe the appearance of redness as it may help to reduce the stress load on the skin. This is why Idebenone can also be found in many formulations for sensitive skin types. 

Idebenone is a top ingredient in skincare due to its many anti-aging properties.  BNY took this formulation a step farther by adding soothing Aloe and Jojoba Oil to help hydrate, moisturize and protect. To finish the cream, BNY added DMAE to help firm loose skin. Excellent for sensitive skin.

Is Idebenone Safe?

As Idebenone hasn’t been used in skincare formulations for a long time, it is not a particularly well-researched ingredient. It is generally considered to be safe for use. Few people have experienced redness, irritation, and stinging when used as an Idebenone-based product; however, this reaction is rare. If you’re considering the use of this product and have sensitive skin, you may want to test a small patch of skin first. It is also crucial to note that Idebenone, like any antioxidant, will reduce in effectiveness over time when exposed to UV rays. To avoid this, make sure to keep your product away from direct sunlight and ensure you use a sunscreen when you are likely to be in the sun.
