Is there life after collagen? With collagen showing up in just about everything these days, promising prolonged youthful beauty, we’re on the look out for the next big thing. Set to debut on April 22, Suntory has a new beauty supplement made from flavangenol, a pine bark extract that promises to fight free radicals, improve circulation, and reduce dark pigmentation.
Each capsule includes 40mg of France-harvested flavangenol plus ceramide, firethorn berries (an ancient Chinese beauty secret), rose extract, and vitamin C. A month’s supply (at three doses a day) costs an impressive ¥5,460. The product is a result of research from Suntory’s Flavangenol Research Laboratory.
