research A Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials Assessing Phytochemicals and Natural Ingredients for Skin and Hair Care
This systematic review evaluated 63 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on phytochemicals and natural ingredients for skin and hair care, involving 3,439 subjects. It found significant improvements in skin conditions like melasma, hyperpigmentation, and acne, as well as hair growth and quality, with natural products such as Polypodium leucotomos, Camellia sinensis, and Centella asiatica.
