Ferulic Acid, also known as hydroxycinnamic acid, is a powerful antioxidant that neutralises free radical damage from pollution, ultraviolet light or infrared radiation, all of which accelerate skin ageing. It is also found in the cell wall of plants like oats, brown rice, peanuts and oranges, but you typically hear of its association with apples.
Naturally, Ferulic acid is botanically derived, but it can be created in a lab for quality control, consistency and consumer safety. It mostly comes in a liquid form and can be found in serums.
The benefits of Ferulic Acid for the skin, is that it works to stop all the damage that comes from ageing.
It protects the skin from pollution and radiation, which, can lead to wrinkles. It can also act as a shield to protect skin from free radical damage, reducing inflammation, which may cause blocked pores, which can lead to breakouts.

Ferulic acid is also great for uneven skin tones,redness and sunspots.
