Glycine Max Seed Extract
What Glycine Max Seed Extract is & what it does
Glycine Max Seed Extract is derived from the seeds of the soybean (Glycine max). In skincare and sunscreen formulas it is used as a skin-conditioning and antioxidant-associated extract, since soy seeds are rich in proteins, isoflavones, and fatty components. A notable property is its naturally occurring isoflavone content, which is often highlighted for the appearance of more even-toned skin.
