29 Jan 2024 --- Shiseido discovers that the extract from Mogami-Benibana has a structural stabilizing effect on the blood capillary, which could create new solutions for skin aging distresses. Mogami-Benibana is a variety of safflower traditionally grown in the Japanese prefecture of Yamagata. The Japanese cosmetics giant has focused on safflower for over 30 years and confirmed that safflower extract contains adenosine, which promotes blood flow. The brand says the relationship between blood vessels and beauty is attracting significant attention, which led to the study exploring the effect of Benibana extract on blood vessels.
