    TLDR Plant-based ingredients are effective and safe for modern skincare products.
    The 2017 review article discussed the growing consumer preference for natural cosmeceutical ingredients from plants, focusing on their role in skin health and anti-aging. It evaluated 68 plant sources from six major plant families for their cosmeceutical potential, covering their use in formulations for sun protection, anti-aging, anti-wrinkling, antioxidant, and anti-allergy purposes. The review used an electronic survey of industries and a scientific literature review to identify these plants and their applications. It concluded that plant-based ingredients traditionally used without side effects continue to fulfill the requirements of modern cosmeceuticals. However, the document does not provide specific numbers of people involved in studies, as it focuses on plant extracts rather than clinical trials.
