The document discussed the use of plant stem cells in cosmetic products, highlighting their potential benefits for skin care. Plant stem cell extracts were considered an innovative approach for creating natural active ingredients that could protect skin stem cells, neutralize UV ray effects, and combat free radicals. These extracts were produced in a controlled, ecological, and sustainable manner, with the ability to induce the synthesis of desired secondary metabolites. Despite differences between human and plant stem cells, plant stem cell extracts were found to have antioxidant, soothing, and protective effects on skin, including protection from UV-induced damage and stimulation of extracellular protein synthesis.
