Paeoniflorin is a derivative of monoterpene, mainly derived from dried root of plant white peony (accounting for 3% of white peony). It is a main effective ingredient of total glucosides of paeonia (TPG).  BFSTAR develops two specifications: 70% Paeoniflorin and 98% Paeoniflorin. Both of them are natural cosmetic raw materials. Paeoniflorin is off-white fine powder. It’s lightly soluble in water, and soluble in ethanol and acetone. Paeoniflorin is hydrolyzed and polymerized in a dilute alkali solution; and it will slowly degrade in a slightly acidic aqueous solution. Emulsions made of non-ionic surfactants can slow down this process.

Paeoniflorin has great development prospect in market of cosmetic raw material, because of its various biological activities. Paeoniflorin is characterized by scavenging free radicals and resisting oxidative damage. It inhibits NF-kB cells and improves immune property of skin cells. It greatly exerts anti-inflammatory effect. Thus Paeoniflorin can be used in combination with other effective ingredients to treat skin sores, acne, pimple, sunburn and so on. Paeoniflorin inhibits melanin production due to its anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory activities. It reduces skin pigmentation; and it has a non-dose-dependent whitening effect. In addition, Paeoniflorin can prevent and improve intrinsic skin aging and UV-induced skin aging. It has an anti-wrinkle effect.

5. Paeoniflorin Benefits

  • Anti-inflammation

Paeoniflorin exerts an anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting production of TNF-α and IL-1β and promoting expression of IL-10. The study result indicates that Paeoniflorin antagonizes chemokine formation induced by TNF-α and leukocyte migration. Therefore, Paeoniflorin shows a broad spectrum of anti-inflammatory property.

  • Anti-wrinkle & anti-aging

Paeoniflorin can enhance vitality and performance of skin cells. It promotes collagen fibers’ synthesis. Thereby Paeoniflorin contributes to increasing of toughness and elasticity of skin tissue; also it reduces production of lipid peroxides. Accordingly, Paeoniflorin significantly prevents intrinsic skin aging as well as DNA damage and skin wrinkling caused by UV. And compared with vitamin E, Paeoniflorin can better increase cell growth rate. Therefore, cosmetics containing Paeoniflorin are very effective anti-aging products.
