Sumac

If you’ve ever been to the Middle East, I’m sure you’ve encountered the abundance and common use of spices in the local cuisine- one of the most popular being Sumac. This aromatic, dark-red powder not only makes its way to your favorite meat or salad dishes but also serves as a superhero for your skin! 

Sumac originates from subtropical regions throughout the world. Beyond its bright and glaring red appearance, this antioxidant-packed plant will surprise you with its skincare benefits. Originally known as a natural spice and dye, sumac has also been used medicinally for centuries. 

This ingredient is known for containing a high amount of antioxidants, notably Quercetin. Based on studies of anti-inflammatory properties for skin health, this antioxidant stands apart with its ultra-protective capabilities. Quercetin’s properties are not only limited to combating inflammation, but they go as far as fighting skin issues such as dermatitis. 

At times when your skin may be in distress, sumac's heroic properties power through. Its antioxidants are crucial for protecting your skin cells from damage and preserving your skin’s collagen. Truth is, aging is inevitable but having skincare products with high antioxidants surely helps with decreasing oxidative stress. By decreasing these stressors using Sumac, your skin’s firmness will undoubtedly stay intact.
