- Abstract
The article describes the use of a root extract from the ipomoea batatas (sweet potato) to combat dark circles under the eyes. The extract contains dicaffeoylquinic esters (DCQE), which effectively work in various ways to prevent the formation of eye circles. A study has shown that the extract downregulates genes involved in the formation of eye circles. Clinical evaluations have shown that the extract improves the color of the eye contour and increases eye stiffness. The extraction process, called "plant milking," allows for sustainable and environmentally conscious extraction of active ingredients from plant roots. The active ingredient IBRE reduces the transcription of proteolytic enzymes and inhibits the production of inflammation-promoting mediators. Clinical tests have shown a significant improvement in the appearance of under-eye shadows. The mechanical stiffness of the skin in the area of the eye circles is significantly enhanced by the application of IBRE. The results of a clinical study confirm that the ipomoea batatas root extract (IBRE) leads to a rapid improvement in the color of eye circles.
