Cellular metabolism and exposure to solar irradiation result in generation of free radicals which are destructive and can lead to premature aging. Antioxidants and free radical scavengers such as carotenoids successfully protect from these free radicals by quenching and neutralizing them thereby strengthening skin barrier which leads to improved skin moisturization, desquamation, and a more youthful look. This study was designed to evaluate the consumer-perceived efficacy of an oral supplement (Lumenato™) containing a mix of tomato carotenoids and oil-soluble vitamins in improving skin appearance after 12 weeks of supplement use.

细胞新陈代谢和暴露于太阳辐射会导致产生具有破坏性的自由基，并可能导致过早衰老。抗氧化剂和自由基清除剂（例如类胡萝卜素）通过淬灭和中和自由基，从而成功地保护它们免受这些自由基的侵害，从而加强皮肤屏障，从而改善皮肤保湿、脱屑和更年轻的外观。本研究旨在评估消费者认为含有番茄类胡萝卜素和油溶性维生素混合物的口服补充剂 (Lumenato™) 在使用补充剂 12 周后改善皮肤外观的功效。
