Chanel decrypted the silver needle on the 10th.

The importance of antioxidation

With the improvement of people's living standards, people pay more and more attention to health. The word "antioxidant" is mentioned frequently, but do you really know about it?

The essence of the so-called antioxidant is to scavenge free radicals in the body. Free radicals are constantly produced in the human body due to continuous contact with the outside world, including respiration (oxidation), external pollution, radiation and other factors.

Smoking, air pollution, water pollution, radiation, pesticides, high stress in life, excessive exercise, and so on, can increase the concentration of free radicals, which is called oxidative stress. The greater the oxidation pressure, the higher the concentration of free radicals in the body.

The body's antioxidants are not only self-synthesized, but also supplied by food. However, with the development of society, there are more and more factors that increase the concentration of free radicals in daily life, and their own antioxidant system is facing the crisis of underuse. At this time, we usually need to rely on outside food to provide antioxidants.

More and more studies have shown that antioxidation is an important step in preventing aging and many health problems. If excessive oxidative free radicals can be eliminated, many diseases caused by free radicals and aging-related diseases can be prevented.

When it comes to anti-oxidation and anti-aging, tea lovers will think of luxury Chanel's Chanel 10 lotion for naturally or temporarily sensitive skin.

The Secret of Chanel No. 10 Emulsion and Bai Hao Silver Needle

Chanel 10 Emulsion

For Chanel, the birth of every skin care product is a long and accurate research and development journey. As a perfect product for sensitive muscles, how did No. 10 lotion come into being? Why is it called the 10th? And why choose Baihao silver needle as the core ingredient of the product? The following video is unveiled for you one by one.

If there is no flow, look down.

How to get excellent skin care products with good results and safety? To this end, CHRISTIAN MAH é, Senior Vice President of Chanel Research and Technology, collaborated with American dermatologist Dr. Amy Wechsler four years ago.

Every day, patients ask if they can recommend a product for sensitive skin, Dr. Amy Wechsler said. She didn't know what product would really soothe their skin. Some people are born with sensitive skin, some people are temporarily sensitive because of excessive stress, and the surrounding environment is also a major factor.

How to solve? Need targeted products! What should this skin care product look like? What are the ingredients? For people with sensitive skin, a large number of chemicals in skin care products can cause problems. So Dr. Amy Wechsler thought of tea!

Their team came to China-Fujian-Fuding, where they found white tea and Baihao silver needle.

They found that Baihao silver needles had very high levels of antioxidants.

They want to create products with only 10 ingredients, and vice president CHRISTIAN MAH é says it's a very difficult and important task, so they have to keep trying and experimenting.

They received a lot of samples, some formulations were not moisturized long enough, and some formulations had poor soothing effect. So they tried 117 different recipes and finally found 10 perfect combinations that complement each other.

Baihao Silver Needle (Baekho Silver Needle) is the most rare and precious variety of white tea. The product research department takes the top of tender leaves in Fuding area of China as raw material and follows the traditional ancient method to make it. After pure manual picking and pure natural sun exposure, the product research department extracts active ingredients rich in theanine and polyphenols. The biological in vitro test shows that the extract of Baihao silver needle has the effect of soothing, calming and strengthening the skin.

1 soothing: regulate the production of neurotrophic factors (NGF synthesis reduced by 75%) and restore sensory perception.

2 calming and calming: block free radicals and protect skin from oxidative pressure.

3 tenacity: promote three key proteins that affect keratinocyte differentiation (keratin, silk polymeric protein, aristolochia protein), consolidate skin barrier function.

So what is the scientific analysis of the antioxidant activity of white tea?

Lin Zhi, a researcher from Tea Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, made a preliminary exploration on the antioxidant activity of white tea, which laid a good foundation for further research.

The experiment mainly used iron ion reduction method (FRAP method), scavenging DPPH free radical activity, APTS free radical scavenging activity and oxygen free radical scavenging activity to detect the antioxidant activity of white tea.

Research summary

1 on the whole, the antioxidant activity of Baihao silver needle was significantly higher than that of white peony and Shoumei, but there was no significant difference between white peony and Shoumei.

(2) there was no significant difference in antioxidant activity among Baihao silver needle, white peony and Shoumei in different years.

What is the relationship between the mass concentration of the main chemical components in white tea soup and its antioxidant activity?

The law of tea soup is different from that of dry tea, which is related to the brewing process and methods. However, some rules of antioxidant activity can be obtained from the composition analysis of tea.

Research summary

The antioxidant activity of white tea soup is related to the total amount of tea polyphenols, catechins, flavonoids and organic acids.
